I’m 71. My Maverick is a 22 Lariat AWD lux package, copilot 360, Cactus Gray. Currently 24K miles.

Bought my 69 year old wife her 2022 XLT AWD with the Luxury Package in Hot Pepper Red, she picked it on December 20th 2022 and has 19k miles on it already. I have my 2018
F-150 STX that I bought in September 2017 with 8.5 miles on it when drove it off the lot. I now have 25k miles on it, who's the Grandfather now and I just paid it off this month. Not bad for a 71 year old Vietnam Veteran Who's still kicking and screaming

59, picked up my 1st edition in rapid red, last November after waiting 408 days. Love my ride!!!

81, picked up my 1st edition, rapid red 3/9/22 at MSRP before the person who ordered it and declined it got off the lot. (Right place Right time).

This thread is proof that with age comes wisdom. Ya all bought smartly.

I'm just surprised ya all figured out how to use these inter-webs.

This is bad:
Picking up my 23 Mav Lariat on Friday the 13th

But in some Spanish speaking countries the bad day is Tuesday the 13th

So you may be protected if you have some Spanish relation!

Would a Spanish relationship work? (Asking for a friend).

If you are considered a rookie at 67, then I must be a pre-rookie at 66
My '22 Lariat hybrid will be a year old on the 25th of this month (ordered it one year earlier to the day) and I turned over 2900 miles today running my wife to appointments.

YOU KIDS GET OFFA MY LAWN!!!

(75 here, Old School Iconic Silver Oh yeah!! XLT AWD EB. Such a Good Thing!)

I was one of the guys who ordered early when the first news of the Maverick came out. Even the dealers had no idea what it was. Ordered a HPR Hybrid Lariat with all the options, for this might be my last vehicle. I'm 83, and been on this forum since July 2021. I still drive my 1956 standard shift Thunderbird to the local car shows here in Florida. And you kids, "Get off my lawn"

Funny how old people think alike, I also used the phrase "Get off my lawn", before I read your comment.

I’m 65 and picked up my Maverick AWD Lariat eco boost in June of this year. I have a whopping 2,200 miles so far. Average around town is 24 mpg and 38mpg on the highway. Most of my driving is in town.

Just got my notice that my Hybrid I forgot about is being built in the third week of December. Trying to figure out what to do now. Don’t know if I should try to trade the eco or sell it. If it doesn’t make sense money wise I might just keep it.

The reason I have the eco boost is that I changed one of my hybrid orders because my old truck was 27 years old and wasn’t as dependable anymore.

Am 71 here. Told the Mrs. that I would drive my 2011 Ranger till either it or I dropped - or until someone came out with a small hybrid truck. Ordered it on 9/20/22 and picked it up on 7/21. Looks like I may have to find the button to open the gas tank door in a week or two. Such fun to drive!

Same here, been waiting thru 2 Rangers for a small hybrid truck!

Both of us late 60s right now. Got ours last week after a little over 1 year wait (or as I say, being in labor for over a year ).
