I suspect there were a lot of orders for black. I just don't think they photograph well. But, for us, we've already had our quota of black vehicles, and we're over it.
I bought my wife a black 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander. It is a sharp vehicle but a pain to keep clean and the paint shows every scratch and swirl. No more black vehicles for us.

Is seems like the Shadow Black is not a popular color. I was between carbonized gray and shadow black when I ordered but chose shadow black. Any reasons that color isn’t so popular?
For me personally if i was getting to choose my color i wanted a fun one. Also i dont think Mav’s look particularly special in black. Just personal preference really. I think the area 51, orange, and cactus contrast best with the exterior plastics.

some cars look great blacked out. i just dont think mav is one of them. And since theres basically no black in the interior… i kinda think ford agrees

Shadow Black is probably the best color on the Maverick. I passed on it because I had Fusion and an Escape in black and needed a change.

Shadow black, absolutely gorgeous. Had a tuxedo black F 150 before my Mav. That thing was a pain to keep pristine but when summer came around, I was always proud of it.

I'm afraid you have been misinformed. Oxford White it the best color on the Maverick.......I maybe a little biased though in regards to that opinion.:D

In my opinion black looks really good on vehicles that have a lot of chrome details but the Maverick doesn't have much of that. It's the same reason why I'm not a big fan of Alto blue even though it's a nice color

Ha Ha, maybe so! I did have an Oxford White Mustang GT back in the day and my Ranger is White Platinum. I give each of the colors in the spectrum a chance, lol.

i was torn between shadow black and carbon grey. Carbon grey just looked so different from photo to photo that I didnt feel confident with it. So went with black.

Ive accepted the fact that its just simply going to be dirty lol. Im not going to be washing it every week. At most ill give it a hose down every so often.

Had 3 black cars in a row. Best color when clean but 15 mins later not so much.

Had 3 white cars in a row after the 3 black. Easier to keep clean but got burned out on the white.

My Maverick will be carbonized grey but will be ceramic coating it once I get it to make the cleaning process easy.
