A station wagon Maverick, like a mini Flex.

This morning, I was imagining what a King Ranch edition Maverick would look like. 😄 Anybody else have weird design ideas you'd share?
Lowering the Maverick. Goes from useful and practical to pita. I couldn't even get out of my driveway with that.

Or... another crazy idea... make trucks smaller.
I refer everyone to THIS wonderful YouTube video. As if the real-world effect of political incompetence were not already clear enough back in the 80's, the Obama administration made the problem much worse.

I liked the idea of being able to spot a small trailer behind you but can't find it now (had to actually log in).

I posted this in a thread about the 25 front end. If they are moving away from the traditional truck look. Why not go all the way and try for the cyber truck look.

Maverick EV: Having enormous weight and high price tag. It’s not the most practical choice for a compact pickup.

If it had existed, the answer would be, "the trudcklet parked outside my house."

The only reason that I bought a a Lariat is that there wasn't a more luxurious model.

10 way (by the current count) seats would have sealed the deal when I was looking for myself. After eliminating the maverick for myself, we bought it (and it's inadequate power seats) for my wife.
