Hello all,
Eveer since the 2024 ranger was introduced, i had a plane to purchase one (likely a 2026) when i returned to the US. But recently my plans have changed and no longer have the need to tow an rv. with that change in needs i decided to consider the 2.5l hybrid Maverick as a better fit for my needs.

I will likely have lots of questions as i research this purchase, likely to be a 2027 model by the time i am ready to put the money down.

Thanks in advance to this community.

Welcome Tommy, plenty of reading to do on here. I was lurking every day for about 4 months prior of joining MTC. Very happy with my 25'Hybrid and 9 months later my wife bought one as well. Good luck finding the perfect one.

Welcome to the Maverick Truck Club forum from Alaska!

Go to a dealer and do a test drive of a Maverick.

Please post pictures of your Maverick test drive. :camera:

You can still tow a camper with a Maverick. I tow a 3000lb camper with my hybrid!
Tommy, 4k tow package, why ?
Same principle as a condom,
I’d rather have it and not need it than,
Need it and not have it.
Mine didn’t have it t but Im surrounded by guys with big trucks and trailers. They’ll gladly haul for me just to rub it in I got a mini truck.

Think you’ll be pleased with the Maverick, as a thought though, if your thinking 2027 would be purchase time frame, I think the 2028 will be a total refresh design, maybe they will be info, pics etc before then

The Maverick hybrid really seems to hit a sweet spot for a lot of people. Good fuel economy and practical size make it hard to ignore. I had a Ranger years ago and loved it, but I can definitely understand the appeal of making the switch. My wife was recently ordering some products from laura geller https://laura-geller.pissedconsumer.com/review.html and we ended up talking about how much consumer habits have changed over the years. Funny what random topics come up around the house.
