It's one of those personal preference thingies. I really like the orange accent better, it's a nice touch especially when everything has been black for decades unless you get the upper trims.

I don't think it is just Maverick with poorly written manuals. When we bought our Lexus, in order to sit in the car and read the manual, I took my wife shopping. I read how to work each device and by the time she came out of the store, I was ready to pull my hair out. Everything is common sense, except for the electronics. I was so confused, I blamed myself for being stoopid. A simple thing like pairing my phone was impossible. I gave up trying, And, later it started working the way it is supposed to. So, I am either a genius or a lucky nut job. I do not have my Mav yet, so I don't have the manual and I shudder to think of what my next few days will be like trying to wade through all the electronic jargon. The salesman showed me stuff today straight out of Flash Gordon comics. And he showed it all to me in 30 minutes. Guess how much I remember.
My experience is very much the same. And, I only have an electronic copy of the Maverick manual. After I zoom in so the words are big enough I can actual read them, the scrolling around and all the mouse action to read the whole page begins to become very grating.

If a printed copy of the manual doesn't come with the truck, I'll see if I can send the manual file to a local print shop and have them make me a super sized copy so I can actually read it. Maybe on 11X17 paper, LOL.

Orange does go well with the interior

That orange accessory does go well with the interior, but like a lot of the electronics, I wonder if it would be that useful. If it kept rodentia from my air cleaner, I would be happy with it.

For those complaining about the manual- why would anyone put effort into a manual?
Think about all the posts on forums that are very easily answered by reading the manual.
People are lazy, they'd rather take the time to post a question on a forum vs. read the manual.
