The Texas Mavericks!

[groovesocket]

Nope. I'm pretty sure there's a Cyber Orange XLT that "lives" in Round Rock. No BAP, if I recall correctly. We'll probably have to get together at some point to compare notes.

My Cyber Orange Hybrid arrived at the dealership last Tuesday, but I decided to have a coronary event on Monday evening and spent the next few days in the hospital.

Public Service Announcement:
Did you know you can have a full-on heart attack and have ZERO pain? My symptoms were dizziness, tunnel-vision, and a weird "muffled hearing" effect. Well, all those AND extremely low pulse rate (<40) and BP (50-something over 30-something). So don't be stupid like me, and try to "cool off" before calling the EMTs... If you think you MIGHT be having a heart attack, CALL THEM IMMEDIATELY!
(End of PSA)

Tomorrow (Tuesday) is the first day I am allowed to drive (5 days after surgery) according to the cardiologist, but my sister is coming to visit, and I'll be spending time with her. I decided if waiting another day for the second (non-emergency) heart stent hadn't killed me, neither would waiting another 24 hours for my Maverick! (A little heart attack humor there... Maybe very little...)

Anyway, starting Wednesday, if you see a CO Hybrid Lariat with BAP in Cedar Park / Austin / Round Rock, it just MIGHT be me! Can't wait to actually see it. Dealership had it ceramic coated for me, so it should be looking good!

Jim, I glad you survived your cardiac event to enjoy your Maverick. I have an cyber orange XLT w/o BAP (because it's a 2022) and I live in Round Rock. So you might be referring to me. There was a cyber orange lariat in the Flix parking last Saturday night. I've seen one other cyber orange XLT in Round Rock a few months back parked near Old Settlers Park. I parked beside it and took a picture. I wasn't able to track down the driver.

Let's get together once you're feeling better.

Would you mind me asking if Five Star Ford in N. Richalnd Hills was able to deliver your Maverick this year? I am looking at bigger dealer options and wanted to know where people here in D/FW had luck getting delivery this year? I ordered an XLT with the Lux package and was one of the first orders in a smaller dealership that I have only notice received 3-4 this year . . . Maybe more but they do not seem to want to share numbers delivered or still on order.

Yes sir. I ordered on Sept 12 and took delivery at end of March. It was a fantastic experience all the way around. If you go there, you will not be disappointed. My wife's Lariat Hybrid was built and is at Mesquite railyard. Dealer here in Bowie thinks it will be at dealership early this week. Just for comparison - small dealer here only ordered 12 and mine is only the third one to be delivered and the first hybrid. If you will message me, I will get you to the salesman and sales director that were great to work with. They kept me posted, honored the original pricing even after the increase, no markups, no high pressure, and honored my Farm Bureau discount.

Jim,

Sure glad you are OK. May 25 of last year I had a heart attack, went to ER and was set for stints the next morning. While being prepped, I flat-lined for 9-10 seconds, but they got me going again. Found out I could not have stints, but rather had FIVE bypasses done. Procedure went great and now at age 76 and 14 months later, my doctor said to get off my butt and do some work, so I am back working again and feel fantastic.

Glad your Maverick is here, but more happier you are ok.

Yep - you are the guy I was remembering, but hadn't looked up your "name" yet, since I don't have my CO "in hand"...

We'll definitely have to get together and compare notes!

Yeah - I'm kinda glad I'm OK as well. My wife jumps a foot in the air every time I cough or even just sigh... "Are you sure you're OK?" I get it - I scared the heck out of her (and me), but gee whiz I wish she would chillax! She's making ME nervous! LOL

PS - wouldn't trade her for all the gold in Ft Knox...

Sure would enjoy getting to meet you guys. I go thru that way quite often and actually plan to leave here end of September for 3 months at S Padre Island. If we don't make it before then, we can work something out while we are enroute. We normally split the trip and stay somewhere in the Austin area the first night. We will touch base before then.

@JimParker256 and any Austin area Maverick owners, we should meet at the next Pistons at the Park the first Sunday in August. We could hangout and show off our Mavericks.

Do you know when it starts / ends? I am tied up in the AM, but might be able to come sometime in the afternoon.

WISH WE GET A TEXAS EDITION. Highly doubt it, but would be awesome. I might buy the badge just for the shits. Everyone from my work is gonna make fun of my small truck.

Well, there are vendors that sell "Texas edition" car badges on Etsy for starters ......

Dang! I'll have to miss it.

Finally picked up the Cyber Orange Maverick today. Man, what a gorgeous color! Anyone who says it's "school bus yellow" has to be blind! I'll post pictures in the Cyber Orange thread tomorrow... (Long day today for a recent heart attack survivor.)

Congratulations on getting your Maverick. The Pistons at the Park is a monthly event. We can meet up at the next one.

I would appreciate if you would please share the salesman and sales director names with me. I would like to reach out to them before next Monday when the order banks open up to see if they think that they may have available allocations for new 2024 orders.

Again, thank you for your reply above and I look forward to hearing back from you,

Texas Fred

Greetings all, another Texas resident here. Live in Round Rock. Just got word last week that after a year of waiting our new 2024 Ford Maverick Lariat Hybrid in Terrain is scheduled for build on Oct 16th. Dealer is in Austin, TX. Just wondered how you all tracked the order from the factory to the dealer and how long it took.
