Except, given the opportunity, I would just take my fairly short Equinox, and using the backup camera, back into that spot behind him within 2"-3" and block his ability to drop the tailgate.
Go find some annual sales numbers on Mid size trucks and you'll see they huge money makers. Obviously reading this forum you know there is a massive market for Maverick size product that has lower entry price and not as large as Mid size which is over kill for a lot of people. Both categories can succeed without Canabalizing sales of the other.
Interesting- aside from being jacked up, the Ranger doesn't look that much larger. Seems the Maverick cab dimensions are larger too.Someone parked their new Ranger XLT Sport next to my Mav… so it was a great opportunity to take some size comparison pictures. I don’t believe theirs was a 4X4.
you had a point? I thought you were just trying to be funny. Sort of like the Goldilocks fable. My Maverick porridge is just right. We have an F-150 for all our big truck stuff, and I have a Maverick for all my lighter duty open bed stuff. Sometimes I wish Ford offered a truck with useful features right in the middle of my other 2.
love your Ranchero in Avatar. 1 of mine (my Avatar) was also a 1964 with 289 and 3 on a tree. I see you have a 71 as well. I had a 1973 with 351 Cleveland in it. I liked the 64 better.
Amen on that last takeRanger kinda parked crooked . But thank you for the pictures ! It’s amazing how the ranger feels almost as big as f150 . I’m curious why they didn’t name it the maverick and the maverick the ranger . When I think the name maverick I think of cowboy western off roader truck . Like the classic western tv series maverick. To me current maverick is next generation of this 2011 ranger
I notieced the "student driver" sticker/magnet, what do you use it for, I have some of those decals on both of my vehicles, win-win for me, my daughter is getting her permit, main reason I got them, and having them on there for me is that people don't tailgate so close anymore when I driver slower than posted!!!Someone parked their new Ranger XLT Sport next to my Mav… so it was a great opportunity to take some size comparison pictures. I don’t believe theirs was a 4X4.
Funny thing is that I saw a Ranger in France when we were there in June, and it just looked so out of place among the Euro vehicles everywhere. Stuck out like a sore thumb! I didn't get a chance to see who was driving it, but we were nowhere near any concentrations of Americans (Evreux, France...about an hour west of Paris).
I know that the new update to the Ranger had a heavy focus on updating the interior, which was largely unchanged from the Australian version that was marketed primarily as a farm truck. I'm interested to see what they do with the '24 Ranger, assuming they learned some valuable lessons from the Maverick's appeal.
Thanks. The '64 is for sale- everything mechanical new- lots of parts. The'71 is a daily driver; added furl injection.
