Took my wife's 2020 Escape in for its three-year check-up and state inspection on June 13. It is a small Ford dealership in upstate NY. Asked about availability of Mavericks and the manager said he had just gotten an opening for one in the dealer allotment. He said to give a list of options and he would plug it in. So, I went to the Ford website and did a build and price and gave it to him. Lariat EB, Alto blue, Co-Pilot 360 & 4K tow. Just checked and it is scheduled for the week of September 25. After hearing all the horror stories of long waits and talking with dealers that would not deal sticker pricing or the X-plan, I had about given up and was going to try my luck with a 2024. Found another upstate NY dealer that would sell at X-Plan and placed an order with them. Price is about equal on both. Options slightly different. Now to see if the first one goes into production next month. Not sure which one I want. Like the Alto blue and the soon to be discontinued colored skull caps, heated wipers and touch pad entry. Like the SIBL on the 2024. Not a bad problem to have.
