Leo is in the building

[Ozarkbeard]

I'm not an astrology nut, but my truck was built under the sign of Leo. So I thought that would be a fitting name for my Maverick. Leo is at the dealership and I'm going to pick him up this afternoon. About a 380-day wait will soon be over.

Looks good. Don't forget to get your 380 sticker as detailed in this thread. My sticker is 313 days. Though I may remake and reorder mine. The oval outline in the background pic is too thin for my liking, I should have done step 12 in the thread to add an oval. Minimum order qty is 2, but not bad for $10 or less.

I was wondering about the thread title... I wasn't thinking Leo the lion, but Leo the Law Enforcement Officer.

Congrats on your new Maverick.

Yeah, me too. Kinda indicative of the people we are......

Heheh, after I posted, I realized the title was probably a bit click-baity.

The drive home from the dealership was fun, although Ark. Scenic Hwy 23 is always a fun drive. I was just amazed at the mileage, considering it was the first trip in the new truck. Looking forward to getting beefier tires more suitable for gravel roads, later this week.

Overall, I'm very pleased with Leo so far, especially considering the price Whitson-Morgan, Ozark ended up selling it to me for. Including doc fee, OTD was abou $1700 less than the price of the 15 September, 2022 order.

I never went into the dealership to place the order. No deposit and a verbal agreement by phone, only. The only document they wanted was a copy of my DL, for COVP, which I emailed them. I would definitely order from them again if wanting another new Ford.

I bought new wheels & tires for Leo. I just didn't trust the Continentals to hold up on my gravel road, and I hate having flats.

Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail tires. The wheels are Vöxx-Orso, matte black. They ride well, are quiet and, so far, have not negatively affected mileage. I got 43.3 MPG on the 35 mile trip home from the tire store; a mix of 2 & 4-lane highway, with very steep hills & curves thrown in for fun. And that's with the A/C on.

 

[Ozarkbeard]

The mileage is still improving. This is mileage for a typical trip into town and back.

This Hybrid truck loves the hills here!
