I work from home. Honestly, I planned to only get 2,000 miles on it a year... maybe.
Lucky rascal. Sure must be nice. On second thought, i would probably get bored working from home. In my younger days, I was stuck in an office all day long and went crazy. I guess I just love to stay on the roads and fight traffic. Man, if I could drive 2K miles per year, my Maverick might last - let's see - 75 to 100 years LOL.

Only one I have seen in my city is one a mechanic that works at the Ford dealership owns. But the 'guests' like me at the sanitarium I 'live' at aren't let out much.

In Pensacola, I've only seen five in the 15 months I've had my Maverick. Two were on the road, one was in a Walmart parking lot, another was in the parking lot of one of the hotels I work at and one is on a used car lot. I stopped and looked at the one on the car lot. It was a '23 XLT FWD Cyber Orange Ecoboost. No price on the window sticker and since I wasn't going to buy it, I left before the salesman got to me. The same car lot had a Santa Cruze a few spots from the Maverick, but I didn't look at it.

I think that interstate roads don't really let you see that many cars even though you are driving for a long distance and time. You can't really see cars going the other way and your only get to see a few of the cars going the same direction.

Maybe odds are better of sighting another Maverick at the Walmart.

I drove from Pensacola to Buffalo, NY in my hybrid Maverick Lariat over the past two days. There wasn’t a Maverick in sight anywhere.
Last December I drove from Virginia to Florida and back and saw like 3 or 4. When I got next to them on the highway I thought they might take notice at mine and wave, but NOPE! LOL

My brothers and I used to beat the crap out of each other in the 70's with the Slug A Bug game in the 70's. Those beetles were everywhere!

Last Sunday completed a 2,600 mile road trip to Hilton Head Island from Chicago, different routes each way.

Final tally: 11 Mavericks, 2 Rivians. Mavericks are easy to spot in the opposite lane due to the offset license plate.

Trip A collected data from 60 hours of ‘wheels rolling time’ and average MPG was 35, mostly ‘Regular’ setting (or whatever the initial startup is) and ‘Eco’ on the island (which ranged between 40-56!).

Zero effort expended on hyper mileing, just drove it and enjoyed it.

Zero mechanical issues. A successful trip!

I live in a town of less than 5000 people. I have heard from others that they have seen a Maverick in town, but I saw one in town for the first time yesterday. This is 4 days after I got mine, so there are at least 2 in town now. There is another one where I work in nearby slightly larger town.

The rarest thing I saw is a Lucid Air, only once.

We drove from Tampa to Atlanta a few weeks ago and saw at least 5, including two being flat towed. I've only see a 3-4 in NH here so far.

I'm starting to see more here in Southern California. This week saw an Area 51 XLT driving around our downtown and parked two spots up from a white XLT at Costco. I think last year before I got ours I only saw five of them and pretty sure I saw one of them twice.

When I drove cross country last summer from Pensacola to California I saw one Maverick in Texas but two Rivians. I bet if I did that trip today I'd see a lot more Mavericks.
