Local dealer in my little town had one parked on his lot for a day. Sunday, when the dealer was closed. Wasn't his, wasn't for sale, on its way somewhere else. I think they did it just to prove that they are actually making them.

I saw 2 ecoboosts a few months ago a couple weeks apart. Since then I haven't any. My hybrid is the only one that I've ever seen. this is the Austin TX area, so not exactly a small pool. I'm not disappointed with that though. I like being the only one around.
Agree! Kind of cool being the only one "in the know"! :cool:

I don't disagree with you. I have never seen a Velocoraptor (whatever you called it). Having owned an Element, I can spot them a mile away. However, outside of the dozen or so in my area I almost never see a wild one. There are two Ridgelines in my subdivision, again those are the only two I see on a regular basis. I thought I saw a Maverick in the wild, but that was an unconfirmed sighting. The most numerous vehicles that I see in my area are a Ford F150 followed by a Subaru Forester.
Do you mean Velocity Blue? :)

Think he’s referring to the Velostar.
Oh. Do you mean Hyundai's Veloster? We know Ford markets an F-150 with the Raptor badge. Did the Veloser and Raptor have a baby? Apologies for the bad joke.

Finally saw my first in the wild, besides my own and one on the dealer lot, in the Atlanta/Chattanooga area.

It was a white work truck, with Ashley Home company decals.

Flat paint? Has this rig been altered to rid it of the glossy finish and going with the matte look? 🤔👽

Saw my first Maverick on the road yesterday, short glimpse as they were turning through an intersection I was sitting at.

Didn't get a good look since I was a few cars back in line and only saw it once it was mostly through the intersection and on it's way. It appeared to be Cactus Grey which was about all I could get in the 3-4 second viewing window.

This was in Estero, FL around 6pm turning from Old 41 to South on 41.

Always fun to catch one on the road ... almost like whale watching.

I finally saw one Monday, blue, turned left about 500 yards ahead of me. It's the ONLY other one I've seen in Arizona.

I’m starting to see a few a week now. 495 near Chelmsford/Lowell in Massachusetts is usually a good spot.

Saw a white hybrid Maverick in front of me at a stoplight today on my way home from work. Not sure which model. Once the light turned green, he went his way and I went mine.
