I am happy to be able to type these words. I picked up my truck on March 31st. I am still at a loss to know how to feel. My experience at the dealership was unpredictable. I ordered this truck from Homer Skelton Ford in Olive Branch, MS. I will say that it was a challenging negotiation. I recommend this dealership, especially the salesperson that handled my purchase. His name is Parks Daughtry. He is honest and worked hard to give me the deal that he promised me from the beginning. This dealership honors the X-Plan pricing and will sell it at MSRP if you do not qualify for that. It is not a perfect dealership, but it is the best one I was able to find in my local area.
I have a XLT model that is a hybrid. I currently have 450 miles on it. I am enjoying my new truck. It has the truck ride that I expect and is giving me 41.3 miles to the gallon on average. I believe the wait is worth it for this truck. Like so many others, I never saw or drove one before my truck arrived. The interior is everything I expected. I chose the black appearance package to give it a subdued look. I find it easy to park and drive in the city and on the highway. I drove a Nissan Versa prior to this vehicle. It is an upgrade for me in every sense of the word.
This is my first real post. I have been reading and researching on here since August of 2022. I will continue to be active here to read the multiple subjects that are posted. My favorite posts are the new trucks being delivered. It is exciting to see each new truck being delivered.

Beautiful truck. My wife has XLT Hybrid Area 51 and loves it. I drive a Lariat Hybrid and it is great as well. We are above 40 mpg and it is everything we had hoped for. Congrats.

Thank you. It took me some time to decide on a color when I ordered my truck. I am happy that I did not change my mind on the color. There is nothing better than seeing two Mavericks sitting side by side. My brother and I ordered our trucks on the same day and it is amazing that both delivered within a week of each other. It is cool to see both of them parked at the gym in the mornings. He chose alto blue. It looks amazing.

That was my thought when I got the call about the truck having been delivered to the dealership. I took the next day off and made time to arrive there to seal the deal. Thank you.

So odd. You have the A51 and your brother has Alto Blue. My wife has the A51 and I have Alto Blue. You are right, when side by side they look amazing. Just wish the Alto Blue did not have a magnet for Pollen. I know I ordered a Blue truck, but each morning, I would swear I ordered a yellow one. Waiting for a good rain to clear the air.

That is the truth. He already deals with that pollen. He will have to deal with the pollen and the potential spotting the amazing alto blue color seems to have. He is hoping that the ceramic coat that he will apply will help with the pollen clean up and spots.

Congratulations! It certainly was a journey with its ups and downs getting to the delivery. But for me, once I got it all the bad days were forgotten, I liked it so much. Your Mav looks great, many happy miles!

Thank you. I plan on keeping my truck long term. I will enjoy every mile. It is a journey to reach the delivery of our trucks. I will enjoy every mile in my Maverick. The true journey has just begun.
