On a lighter note…Walmart is showing what a great company they are once again by closing its stores on Thanksgiving so all the self checker outers can have the day off with their families.

I had to wait a long time for my 23 XL and even if the bubble has popped I still think I got a fair price after xplan. I have to imagine it's still tough to buy a hybrid at MSRP these days. perhaps the markup is less now, though? I don't really know.Wow This Thread has really jumped around. The Bubble in my opinion is gone. I have let people drive my first MAV 2022. at the price and bang per buck they ordered them and love em. Me Being Greedy. Sold my 22 online. Order two more 23 sold one kept one. Put the second one up online . Break even money offered Still best bang per buck. I have a 2024 on order It has a build date of Nov 18. I am not taking it. But I don't want the dealer to take it either. It will be deliver in dallas I dont want a dime if anyone wants it i will post when its there. It a XL Hybrid blue. I love my white 23.
The Bubble is gone and so are the days of Flipping please don't hate

I have a 24 hybrid on order from a small dealer and don’t anticipate it any time soon. Sold my 22 for a little more than I paid. Didn’t really need it at the time. Things changed and I picked up a used Ridgeline RTLE. I have to admit it’s rides and drives so much nicer then the Maverick. The creator comforts have spoiled me. Getting 25-26 mpg compared to 27-28 with the Maverick eco. Not sure what I’ll do when/if my Hybrid comes in.I think part of it is the price increase.
The feedback from people who have seen my truck is generally positive but I get the sense they'd have a hard time swallowing the price to get all of the creature comforts they want (heated this and that, better display, leather surfaces, etc).
I think the reality is that if you can live without that stuff the 23 with xplan was still a great deal. After everything I was just over $24k. That's an xl with hitch, including delivery, title fee and doc fee. Getting a hybrid or a truck for this price is already good. Getting both is great.
The 24 though.... I dunno with these higher prices.
The demand will be huge for a plug-in hybrid. I really wanted that! I had it all worked out where I could charge my battery while I worked out - there's a FREE charging location nearby - and not have to pay for a drop of gas or kWh of electricity since the 30 miles/charge accommodates my work/ exercise commute.
Can you believe that? Free electricity to promote ev's!
...but for how long?
