Congratulations. Post some pics of the Maverick Area 51 when you get a chance. Yours might be the lucky one with the extra-terrestrial in it. I hear it escaped NM:).

You should have taken advantage of X plan
Easily obtained by joining Mustangs of America Club $35 for a year after 90 days qualify for X plan ..... one benifit of it is Doc fee can not be more then $100
For me I saved $300-400 off price and $2750 private offer from Ford
plus doc fee was on $75 vs the dealers normal $550

I am wondering if the promised FIT kits will still arrive LMAO...
I'd rather have a free Yeti!!!

Congrats!!!

Seems like you’ve made some serious $$ flipping Mavericks and decided on an XLT so you speak of what you know šŸ‘šŸ» I haven’t gotten an answer to my question about the private offer yet so I’m hoping you can answer that for me. I also never could find out about the X plan but might be too late to join for a w/o 6/5 production date?

PRIVATE offer was given to people who's orders weren't built that were MY22 ( model year 22 that Ford move or replaced with a new order MY23. These offers were only offered to those people by Ford. If you fall into that situation maybe you have an offer.
My original order was 9-40-21 for a MY22.
X plan had to be mentioned at time of ordering and the dealer willing to honor it.
unfurtunately I doubt you can get that now after the fact AND there almost no way you have a 90 window to qualify for it unless you already are eligable through other sources employer Ford related entities etc....
Flipping no....
I knew I wanted a maverick and order it..... waited saw the delays new I needed top dollar for my Trade at that point .... new 2 years later my original trade would be worth less lol...
What I did do was found one in April of 22 that someone turned down and I paid a premium of $5000 over MSRP to purchase it.
it was an XLT Hybrid. Almost my build but didn't have the Luxury Package.
I drove it put almost 15000 miles on it
Wasn't completely sure my order would ever get built
January 2023 found a Lariat Hybrid and decided to buy it.
Again at $5000 over MSRP.
I did do pretty good on my trade in .( slightly more then I paid )
Then after regeistering my Lariat low and be hold my original build happened
I thought about it and decided I
" personal choice" liked the XLT Better, knew my pricing was better and was exactly what I wanted.
Sold my Lariat with 2500 miles on it for almost what I paid. When my ordered Macerick was shipped and I tracked it to being in Kansas City.
At literally 19 months to the day I purchased my "original order" almost lol
At a great price.
Flipping No and I take offense to that.
Being smart making my money work for me, buying a Diamond in the rough (a Hybrid )enjoying it being smart trading and not taking a bath is what I did.
Good Luck to you
Do research

Be smart

Wow, you got a hybrid in from an October order. I'm jealous... (I ordered in Sept)

Nice choice of color, it's what I picked.

You are welcome
Ask anything !! There are lots of people here that enjoy these trucks as I do!
I've now owned 3 hybrid Mavericks.
I have added lots of things and can give you suggestions!
Enjoy..

The MTC is the best! I’m wondering if you might be the winner for owning the most number of Mavericks so far!🤣

From my signature you can see I have been spoiled with my loaded FE Lariat Unicorn. Except for color, a tonneau cover I have a hard time latching and window deflectors I love everything about it. I could take or leave the decals and I won’t miss the heat absorbing black roof in FL. So my 23 order is basically the same minus FE decals, window deflectors, tonneau and remote start AND it will be the color I wanted originally, Area51šŸ˜ŠšŸ‘šŸ»

Awesome
Yes like you my favorite color is also Area 51
Two of my 3 have been Area 51
No one really needs remote start thanks to the free Ford App which by the way if you get an Apple Watch seems to be James Bond technology to start the awesome Mavericks
I have a very long list of things I've added and for me other then the hood deflector and mud flaps and I guess the last one the Line X liner I have been able to reuse most of it !!
Interested in anything I'm sure I am sure I have added something almost everywhere!!
Yesterday I install all LED Lasfits very awesome easy mod!!

I ordered the SIBL because I didn’t want to have to leave it at a shop for LineX. I am planning on tailgate letters and hood deflector again but might skip the side mirror caps although I thought they made my truck look better than the FE black ones. As soon as I decide on a truck name I plan on getting that little cubby cover on Etsy. I’ll have to see after that as I don’t want to go overboard.

I am curious about dirt showing on the Area51. Is it bad or not very noticeable? I don’t really have the time to wash my truck every week and it is garaged half the time.

It's a great color and doesn't show it much since it's flat paint

That’s fabulous news, thanks! I was spoiled with the CarbGray not showing dirt (except the red clay when I go to NC).
