Saw my first "in the wild " maverick on Saturday sfternoon at Circleville Krogers. It was a sharp looking area 51 but didn't get close enough to note the model details. Started thinking they were myth for a while.

I have an Area 51 Maverick in Circleville, but I wasn't at Kroger today. Surely there isn't another one in Circleville! I have yet to see another one on the road.

Edit: Just realized you said Saturday. That might have been me.

That is Exactly where this one was parked. I was a bit disappointed to leave before you came out though to see your twin!

I picked up my Hybrid XLT at Cortland's Mark Thomas Ford. What model did you get. Maybe we can meet up some time to check them out. I've not seen any others here in Trumbull.

If anyone in Northeast Ohio is looking for a Maverick (or any other Ford), I would highly recommend Klaben Ford Lincoln in Kent. Yesterday (Wednesday), after having contacted a number of dealers over the past three or four weeks, I noticed an XLT Hybrid pop up on Ford's inventory checker that said "Just Arrived" at Klaben Ford. I see these all the time, and I typically send a request for a price. I submitted a request for info even though it looked like it was a customer order. A few minutes later I received a call from a salesman named Branden Johnson. He confirmed that it was a customer order, but he said that there was a chance that the customer wasn't going to take delivery. He said that I would have first shot if that happened. Having seen the MSRP, I asked him what the price would be. He said, "We don't mark anything up over MSRP." I was kinda surprised, but I think I held my composure. He said he was going to be speaking with the customer later in the day, and he would get back with me after. This was around 10 AM. I hadn't heard anything from him by 6 PM (their closing time), so I called him back. He said he had just spoken with the customer and was told that the guy was leaning toward not taking it, but he was going to talk it over with his wife and give a definite answer by 10 AM the next day (Today -Thursday). At that time I mentioned X-plan pricing, knowing that most dealers weren't honoring that on "stock" Mavericks. He said, "We still honor A/Z/D/X-plan." I was pretty shocked, and I told him that it was nice to hear of a dealership doing business that way. I also had a $500 First Responder rebate. (This is such a long paragraph...)

Anyway, I really wasn't expecting the truck to become available, but I received a call from Branden shortly after 9 AM today stating "We're good to go." I was thinking, "What?! This can't be right." I sent Branden my info, and he sent me a purchase order for my credit union. No pressure whatsoever to finance through the dealership. Everything went as smoothly as it possibly could. I live south of Columbus so it was almost a three hour drive for me, but I was in and out of the dealership with my new ride in a little over an hour.

I don't have a good pic to post at the moment because, by the time I had a moment to take any pics, it was already dark. Anyway, I am now the proud owner of an Area 51 XLT Hybrid with the Luxury Pkg and CP360! Thank you Branden and Klaben Ford!

I got mine from liberty Ford Parma hts September 2021 with no markup

Has anyone tried the fwd in the snow or slippery conditions here in Ohio or anywhere else?

Yes, I'm in Brunswick and had no problems in the snow.

Picked up my black xl hybrid today from Classic Ford in Mentor OH. I can not say enough good things on how they treat their customers. I would highly suggest anyone thinking of purchasing a Ford product to give them a try. No markup, no nonsense like I've heard other members post about. Thanks to Greg my salesperson.
