In a 28 day period I put nearly 3300 miles on my Maverick. I drove from Northern Alabama to Fargo, North Dakota. I went up through Cedar Rapids, IA and around Minneapolis on the way up and down through Kansas city, MO to Nashville, TN on the way back to Huntsville. I can tell you It handled the snow pretty good in Slippery mode buzzing around Frazee, MN. It got average 26.8 mpg on the way up and 27.9 on the way back. I noticed I got better gas mileage with higher octane. I was keeping up with the big boys, et al Dodges, F150s, Silverado's. I really like the get up and go, easily handled steep grades and curves. I really like the ecoboost engine. Also I used the bed tie downs for a Husky weather proof storage container and it worked just fine for my extra stuff. I consider it broke in now.
