Might want to drop the direct link for those using a non-Apple device.
I cannot seem to find it anywhere else online. Linked article appears to be a digital copy of what will be featured in the January 2022 Car and Driver Magazine.Might want to drop the direct link for those using a non-Apple device.
It is not the same.
The hybrid definitely attracts people who would otherwise not look at standard pickups. The base price is another major factor in a market where top tier trucks can run $70k+ and even used trucks are going for $30k+. The crew cab/unibody makes it a comfortable daily driver for people who need a DD first and a truck second. () Throw in AWD/towing/off road ability covers just about everyone else. It doesn't hurt that performance is outstanding compared to the compact trucks of the 80's and 90's.I think they forgot why a bigger percentage of buyers purchased the Maverick? IT'S THE HYBRID that attacked so many and yes, the size/price. The reason they didn't compare any of those other trucks to the Maverick Hybrid is because it STANDS ALONE!
I'm not knocking those who ordered any of the other versions because I get that too. A smaller and affordable truck that does what most of what the bigger trucks do.
There's an app on the Android and iOS app stores called Decibel X that does a pretty good job. It will show overall sound level as well as a spectrum view.I'm gonna need to get something to read the decibels in mine cause it is pretty quiet going down the road even with the Off road tires that came from the factory I don't hear barely any road noise unless I have the windows down or I'm driving across gravel
