Mine is still at the plant. No "built" or "shipped" yet, but the last two days it has been moving around at the plant as I watch it through the FordPass app. My access to the app was disconnected this morning after they "factory reset" the vehicle. I was able to re-activate almost immediately after that and I have access again. It is positioned right by the railyard at the plant again, so I am hopeful it will be headed out soon. If you want that FordPass app access, keep trying!

You are probably getting our Mavs held back due to a “Hack Hold”

I still feel like ours will come together, so wanting you to get that built notification so you can get the shipped notification the next day like DryHeat…and have our trucks on the way to Ohio!

UPDATE: Just peeked my tracker quick and the ETA at the bottom changed from 3/15 to 3/13

I wonder if yours is already shipped even though you did not get the notification. Have you reached out to your dealer to see what they show on the visibility report? My ETA is still at 5-21-22.

I have not reached out yet as I may stop at the dealer today and ask them in person. I have a tailgate assist I ordered and need to pick up anyways.

When I try to activate the FordPass it says ‘feature unavailable, try again when you’ve taken delivery’ lol still can’t believe yours worked.

I wonder if the lower level head unit in the XLT is less restrictive than the SYNC 3 system in the Lariat.

[UPDATE] DELIVERED... XLT Hybrid that was previously stuck in "Chip Hold" (details in signature).

Truck was Produced 1/11/22 but not Released until 2/10/22. Shipped 2/11/22 and arrived at my dealer in Oracle, Arizona around noon today, 2/17/22.

The salesman called me and told me they would get it ready by 4 pm today. I spent about 30 minutes with the Finance Manager. (That long only because I was taking advantage of the 0% for 36 months deal. They had no problem giving me that even though rates now are different.)

I drove off the lot around 5 pm. No dealer issues at all. They asked if I wanted an extended warranty then dropped it after we talked for 2-3 minutes. Painless. Ford has been kind of a pain but I would do business with this dealer (only one in Oracle) again.

That is great! I had a feeling you would be seeing yours about a week after it left being your in AZ and it seems first stop is Tucson area. Mine shipped out 2/12, spent a couple days in Tucson and was in Missouri yesterday rolling along. ETA to Orlando is 3/14
Look forward to seeing you post pictures of your new truck. Congratulations again.
BTW: in regards to interest rate. I’ve already been told by dealer that my rates will be protected on the date my order was confirmed. 0% interest sure looks good!

I got my Built email this morning around 4am eastern! Here's hoping my Shipped notification comes in the next couple of days! They ended up resetting my FordPass, so I won't be able to track it along the way, but I'll take what I can get! So excited!

She has officially shipped! The email is showing an estimated delivery to central NC between 03/15 and 03/21. So excited!

Wow! So I stopped by my dealer to pick up my tailgate assist… Little did I know they had two Mavericks on scene! They were both eco-boost engines, no hybrids. One was a black lariat and the other was a cyber orange XLT with a 2 inch lift and upgraded wheels and tires. The black one belonged to the owner and was completely off-limits so I didn’t get to see the inside of a lariat like mine will be. But the cyber orange XLT was dealer owned and available to test drive so I was finally able to sit inside and feel what a maverick is like to drive.

I absolutely loved it. It definitely felt more like a truck when you sat inside than I thought it would be, but it’s hard to judge what mine will feel like because the test drive was in the XLT with a lift and large tires. Either way the view out the windshield and seeing the squared hood was very Truckee.

It was strange at times because it looked big, and then you would stand at a different part of the truck and it would seem kind of small, especially from the back view. But once I sat inside it seemed so much bigger than it looks in videos. I also think the interior plastics look and feel very nice for what they are.

Some things I did notice that I had been wondering about are as follows:

•The infotainment screen is angled slightly down. Helps with glare but also kind of strange and tough to see easily.
•the side mirrors are pretty small
•the talk about hood shake is real, at least on this model once I got up to highway speeds. I don’t know how much it may have been affected by the hood deflector that was on it but what people have said about it is definitely visible.
•The blind spot monitor just flashed on the side mirrors, I did not get an audible 3-beep warning sound like my current Mazda. Not sure if there is a setting on the Maverick where you can add the sound or not, but I hope so because it is way more helpful with the audible alert.
•Backseat leg room was fine. I’m 6’0” 170lb and had a couple inches for my knees when sitting behind myself. Headroom also was not an issue even with the moonroof.

I really can’t wait for mine to get delivered now. Also, my dealer said they’re not doing any shenanigans…so I’ll still get my invoice pricing, and they’ll honor either the rates at time of order or current — whichever is better.

I don't think it will work for me:

Thanks for sharing your experience

Having the FordPass app activated is mainly a curse at this stage since it is still not leaving the plant. It moves from spot to spot around the plant. It has gone from 17 to 23 miles on the odometer. I joke to myself wondering if it is being used like a NAPA parts truck currently or just UBERing people around the facility. All kidding aside, I don't know how accurate the location pin is on the map since it sometimes moves 200 feet or so in the same area.

Did you find out what the visibility report showed? In transit yet or are they waiting until they stop using mine as an UBER to finish loading the Ohio train car(LOL)?

I had him look up the VVR and it still just showed awaiting shipment at the plant. The only other piece of information I was able to see was that it was at Ramp 54.

I may be in the same boat, or lot, rather. I texted my dealer the other day regarding rail car number and got this:

I’m guessing all us Ohio trucks are going to be train mates. Mine said estimated delivery march 19-25
