I recommend checking out the pretentious santacruzforum. I pop in every 3 days to see what's popping. Not as active as this forum but if they tell it, the Santa Cruz is better in every way.
Better fuel economy? nope! Better price? nope! Better looks? nope. . .I'm calling it now. Santa Cruz will be a 1 gen only vehicle.

Edit: Ok I need to take a shower now. Just got back from bizzarro world. No helping thoughs people.

100% won't last 5 years. The reason people can get them is because no one bought one lol

There are 3 Santa Cruz sitting outside local Hyundai dealer. Not sold week after week. Bad on gas and too expensive for what they are. Price and fuel is Ridgline territory. The sales volume is the proof between Mav and Santa Cruz.

The Maverick was designed to follow Ford's idea of what a traditional Truck should look like,...The Santa Cruz is based on an SUV design... Apples to Oranges....It's all about what you want your ride to look like, I wanted a Home owner needs type rig and prefer a nicer ride-handling and interior...more luxury, The SC fills it perfectly...I've carried full-size Husky tool cabinet on wheels.....10ft pipe....Tree limbs, pallets etc.,
My bed has all the options a Maverick has and more(Brunk)
My tail gate has the 45 degree setting also
My tailgate auto Soft opens with FOB
I get 24mpg 100% city

Yes I'll give you credit on the DCT..I wouldn't own one either :)

But we have the 5yr-60,000 bumper to bumper and 100,000 drive train...
And you can't tell me the Maverick hasn't had it's share of growing pains....

So really it's all about what you want your ride to look like and comfort you expect :)
