He spent a good amount of time explaining how the Maverick's Belt Driven CVT works. Ford really needs to fix this confusion or reviewers need to figure out what current eCVTs are. I've even heard one reviewer say they could hear the belt slap, lol.

Wow what a waste of time. He didnt really talk about how it drove or anything like that. Did mention that it had decent power and was fairly comfortable but nothing else. He really needs to do more research before he puts out more videos, no where is it written or said that the Mav has a 50 mile electric range, he also needs to figure out what an E-CVT is, not a crappy Belt Driven CVT he said was in it and compared it to an old Combine Transmission. But it is nice that the Mileage Computer is pretty close to what real world mileage would be, 48-50 MPG in the city and 38.4 MPG out on the Freeway at 70-80 MPH is great for me.

This video is why you should just say NO to drugs and alcohol! Unless you need one of the two to watch this video.

With all that misinformation, I don't think he will be getting any more trucks to review from Ford.
