The info about the bed was a rumor that turned out to not be true. The Santa Cruz has around the same payload as the Maverick. One idiot on youtube made a comment about that and compared the numbers to the Maverick forgetting that payload includes passengers...if you seat 4-5 folks in the Maverick or the Santa Cruz you are left with about 600 pounds for the back of the truck...he said his Taco was 1000-1600 payload...and acted like you don;t have passengers in it as well...as far as your other commentary...I like the looks of the Maverick better and it's cheaper...but I don't like turbo's...especially those built by Ford who has the highest warranty repair cost in the industry for workmanship and the Hybrid which I have ordered has it's own set of problems with promises that ford will correct them....and so far IMHO Ford promises are worthless based upon my experience with this truck..
II wear Cowboy hats and have to duck to get into my Jeep and Subaru. Only my Winnebago class B has head room so I don't have to duck..

Actually, the bed itself is 661# according to fossil.
You can say that; but I have no personal knowledge, so I referenced you (just covering my ass, sorry).
I hear ya, that's why I included the link to the Santa Cruz forum, they argue about it also.
Call it what you like; I will take the MPG to the bank !!
Maybe you need to see your Optometrist for some new glasses if all you see is a Focus everywhere. Maverick and Bronco Sport are both based on the Escape platform. I disagree that my Maverick with AWD, IRS and 4k tow package is a cheap front drive car masquerading as anything else. It has a repurposed car platform under it but that is where similarity of purpose ends. I guess you were probably out of focus on the Avalanche, Ridgeline and decades of Rancheros and El Caminos too because they derived from car platforms
The Focus and the Maverick are built on Fords C2 platform. The Bronco Sport and the Escape are also built on the C2 platform as are many other vehicles in Ford and Lincolns lineup.Maybe you need to see your Optometrist for some new glasses if all you see is a Focus everywhere.

Well said. I actually owned a Focus wgn, I loved it. My EX wife rolled it and walked away (maybe she crawled as she was likely drunk).Maybe you need to see your Optometrist for some new glasses if all you see is a Focus everywhere.
