I've been waiting for this for so long! These guys are the best in the business.
Short and sweet, interesting that these are the first guys to bring up the reflective dash that I've seen considering every video has an obvious reflection in the front windshield.
Polarized sunglasses.
Cool review. Fun to see them push the hybrid a bit and get a laugh about it. Each new review of the hybrid brings more confidence to me.

Thoughts on this video:
- If you think the demand for the Hybrid is high now, wait for this video to be viewed by thousands. (Be prepared for more scams by dealerships trying to steal your orders)
- The first guy says the matte interior is too glossy. Matte and Glossy are the exact opposite of each other! LOL.
- Same guy says because you can sit low, you can see better. Huh?
- Second guy keeps saying "cheap". No, not cheap. Inexpensive.

I think it's a good video. Yes I know the Maverick is cheap, thank you. One of the main reasons it appealed to me
. But some great little snippets on "quiet", "smooth", and "fun to drive"! Those are the things that I love to hear! Mine is supposed to be here next Monday
.
Agreed on all points. When he said it was a "glossy matte interior" I literally facepalmed.

This is probably perspective. I'm short so I lose visibility when sitting low, but Jack is tall, so he probably has the opposite problem where sun visors obscure his view.
The detail I appreciated most was how they say it's normal to drive. This will be my first hybrid and the driving characteristics of switching power delivery and regen braking made me think it was going to be weird for a while. Glad to know it's smooth and user friendly, and even can give a little fun out of driving it.
Thanks for posting. First time I've viewed a savagegeese video and I like their style.
Plus the driver drove the "HyBird" much harder than anyone else I've seen. Not than may of us will hammer on it often but you never know if you have to get to a hospital fast for a loved one ( or speed away from the bank robbery you just committed!?!).

I think they mean glossy textured.
Great review. I haven’t noticed the glare. Would need sun for that though!

Thanks for sharing. Great video.
Did the guy really say: "I've always wanted to die in a 4 cylinder truck" [8:40] when the guy floored it? I spit out my coffee laughing.
