How far are you willing to travel is the question
Probably 3-4 hours away from the Sacramento area would be okay.

Yea Gridley is a little over an hour away from me so well within driving distance for me.

Hi Donodo Well they Have been very good to me . Met the owner Last time I was there for service . I can say no mark ups or fees of any kind.
They Have to maney rice ranchers around so they sell a lot of trucks.
Out of 3 dealers that I called The mav was so new rhey did not have any info ,an got the standerd BS all local. Called Jake Richins an he didint know either so Told him to google it the ford page for ordering it. He was the only one who did. we talked a bit went the next day placed my Order.

Wow, you’ve had a much different experience than I’ve had so far. And I’ll give them a call tomorrow and then find the Ford number to change dealerships if all goes well. Both dealers that I am dealing with right now or less then impressive. I’ll let you know if and when I do something with the two orders I have outstanding right now. Thanks for giving me your input and this information, I really appreciate it

Donodo, I ordered from Folsom Ford mid September 2021. I signed for $19,995 plus a about 1K for some stuff. Shipping etc. I dont think they can get out of that, it's a contract right ? They did not then, or in subsequent discussions ever mention a dealer mark up. Good luck !!

Hi Mayhem I’m really not sure if Folsom Ford is bound by a signature (like me, probably just a sales guy signing the order sheet). I went over there this weekend and never got any manager to even talk to me. I’m under the impression that the only way a dealership is bounded is when they agree in writing to a firm price.
Next weekend I will check out the dealership in Gridley (55 miles away from Folsom) and see if they will or not. If they will then I will transfer my order to them as the impression I have of the Folsom and Roseville dealerships are not good.

Hi folks
I finally drove a Maverick home. It’s larger than I imagined, roomy, and carefully angled it in the garage. It’s a quiet ride and responsive to accelerate. All in all, this is a very nice hybrid that Ford developed.

Congratulations Jim! Really appreciate your impressions of the Maverick. I’ve only seen a few and it looks pretty good.

Big Dog, Jim, thanks for the good wishes for my wife and me. I had to call in sick and probably will be again tomorrow.

Wife appears to be feeling fine this time. She isn’t scheduled for work till next week. We both agree she will not go in if she’s still testing positive the day before her work day.

Jim I’m hoping you are really enjoying your new Maverick 😊

Hi Donodo
Glad to read that your on the mend. Since I purchased the base xl it has very few bells and whistles (the less it has the less to go wrong) and seems to perform solidly. The vehicle has a wide stance and is slightly longer than my 2002 single cab Toyota Tacoma Prerunner. It almost too long to fit in the garage, but it fit. It’s worth the wait. Get better soon.
