It’s almost a week overdue, but I have absolutely zero room to complain compared to so many others.

I ordered back on 21 September 2022 and was very surprised to receive an email with a December build week back in early November. Long story short after a brief delay where the truck that was supposed to bring it from the rail yard to the dealership broke down, they sales manager got the okay for my salesman to go and personally pick up and drive my Maverick to the dealership this morning so we could complete all the paperwork this afternoon.

As the sun started to go down just off the Gulf Freeway and Beltway 8 in Houston, I drove it off the lot headed home — the proud owner of a Maverick! I’m very thankful for Saul and Oscar at AutoNation Ford Gulf Freeway for going above and beyond so that I didn’t have to wait another week for the truck to get repaired for it to bring my Mav down from the rail yard!

It’s the only picture I have right now, but I’ll try to get a few more later. This is what Oscar, my salesman, sent me from earlier today (Friday).

I'm envious! As of today (01/21/2023) it has been 470 days since I placed my order. My dealer just advised me as of Jan 19 my Maverick has been built and just waiting to be shipped. Who knows how long that will take. Certainly not as long as the construction process. So hopefully I'll be a proud new owner just :)like you soon.

Looks great. My Lariat Tier 51 is due any day now. It's off the train and waiting for a truck to pick it up. Seeing another Tier 51 makes my wait that much harder.

I’ve gotta be honest, my luck is usually not this good. This was more of a one off…

The tracker shows it was built on the 16th of December, shipped on the 22nd, and my salesman called to say it arrived at the rail yard on the 5th I believe. I don’t recall the exact date he called, but it was the week before it was scheduled for delivery which was January 9th - 15th. He went and picked it up himself yesterday.

So I finally remembered to snap a couple photos because a friend in Tennessee asked about my Mav, so I made sure to come post here too. Here’s two photos of it all shiny and clean across the street from my house.

Thank you so much! Yes they were awesome to work with.


Looks great. My Lariat Tier 51 is due any day now. It's off the train and waiting for a truck to pick it up. Seeing another Tier 51 makes my wait that much harder.
For me seeing others’ trucks made it both harder and made me a little more antsy and excited as I waited to hear it had arrived at the dealership. Then when the hiccup with the truck from the rail yard was discovered, understandably it just a frustration.

I hope it arrives for you rather soon!

Nice. Maybe post the dealer's name?

Positive reinforcement for cool dealers can't hurt.
