Lucky find!

I lucked upon this one this week and picked it up tonight. It is very much like the one I have ordered but with a couple of added options - tri-fold hard bed cover and Copilot 360.

Congrats! So lucky to find one similar to your order. Enjoy your new Maverick!

Update after about two weeks of ownership:

This is a pretty nice vehicle (for the price and otherwise). It gets incredible mileage in the city. I've had as high as 50 mpg per the computer at the end of individual trips. On two significant interstate trips I've averaged 37 MPG per the computer. There is a little over 1,000 miles on the truck now.

The ride is fine. On a 6-hour trip we did not become uncomfortable at all. Certainly that could be different for other drivers. There is no problem accelerating for on-ramps or for passing. Sport mode is actually pretty responsive but I try to remember to set it to Eco mode to take advantage of the gas savings. I do wish Ford would push out an update to leave it in the last mode selected instead of requiring you to cycle through them each time you start the truck. It has handled well in rain and slightly icy conditions.

The interior is well laid out. The hard plastics are cheaper than other finishes but they don't take away from the comfort and they should be easy to clean. Hopefully, they'll prove more durable over time. The heated seats and steering wheel are great. Sometimes I just use them without the heater. The radio seemed to have frozen once. It still worked but would not respond to radio presets or tuning. It was corrected by restarting the vehicle.

Overall, it's a good looking vehicle. Nothing seems overstated - it just has a clean look. I'll add some tint to the front windows and maybe a hood deflector. The only thing I don't like is the offset license plate - that's minor. I think most people will like it when they get one.

Also, my 2002 F-150 sold within minutes of posting it. It was a terrific 20 year old truck!

Nice. I also sold a 19 year old Toyota 4Runner. I bought it used 10 years ago. I sold it to a buyer out of state, who had it picked up in 24 hours.
