RIGHT OR WRONG TIME TO BUY?????

[F50RaptorNext]

I am interested in the Ford MAVERICK TREMOR. I have found no such deals or sales on them happening, except one at discounted msrp. No low apr or so on.

Should I stop looking and wait? By the looks of it, I am going to end up spending close to 50k for a Maverick after all the fees and tax and so on.

No Maverick is worth $50,000
My 2024 Lariat was $36,000 and I thought I paid too much.
The 2025 Tremors at my Ford dealer were stickered at $43,000 last time I looked

If you are paying 50K, then the answer is clearly YES, this is the wrong time to buy.

50K no way!
You should wait untill the 2026 arrives and then get a 2025 with a discount price!

$43000 pretty much would be $50000+ out the door particularly if extended warranty is purchased.

Cali sounds expensive, I'm picking my Lariat Hybrid AWD, 4k towing, trifold cover, plus 8 years premium care, 5 years maintenance, up on Monday, and it's coming in at $43k USD after taxes etc, though we've got Employee Pricing on at the moment. Prior to tax and plans it was $35k USD.

Anyhoo, guess it's 10 months before Employee pricing rolls around again in Cali, 2025 clearouts should start sooner. They usually get a 3k drop plus what you can squeeze out of the dealer.

Exactly! That's what I did a month ago!

Way to much for an SUV, unless you are looking for status and bragging rights. Many seem to pay way more for gold status.

git it before tariffs take effect.

but $50k for an entry-level pickup with a few options bolted on seems like a lot of money. I would think there are many more capable and higher quality vehicles available at that pricepoint.

My $36,000 plus the triple T and I paid the $2,000 out of pocket for the warranty out to 100k miles. Thats $41,000.

2025 Tremor $48500.00 for all is just too much.

I bought in may, i feel like I lucked out and caught the last of the deals (aside from getting one of the originals for $20k). Just under 39 out the door and plated for a hybrid awd lariat with 4k tow.

Best time to buy was years ago, or during the Ford family pricing.

24 lux bap hybrid hair over 28 OTD no trade. Sold my 23 after a year for couple hundred over OTD to carvana

Those days are over.

This is the way. I was getting the battery recall on my 21 Bronco Sport Badlands done and the dealer had a leftover 2024 Tremor in black. It was VERY nice looking. 37 or 38K with the dealer discount and model year closeout discount. Honestly, tempting (I sold my 2022 Mav Lariat Lux earlier this year).

I just looked at their site and it is now gone.

p.s. My battery was replaced no charge even though I *never* had any kind of issue with it. It would rarely go into battery hibernation mode even though the vehicle was parked for weeks. (I was in the process of moving and was using my F150 to make trips.)

Wow, that's steep! In April MSRP on my 2025 XLT Hybrid w/Co-pilot 360 was $31,885 at Stott's Ford in Tryon, NC, across the state line from me. Employee pricing brought it down to $30,378. Add admin fee of $299, sales tax capped at $500 (in SC) plus title fee of $39 and it was $31,216 out the door. Things have come up some but almost $50K for any Maverick seems too high.
