I plan on putting 30-40K miles/year on my Maverick... reimbursed at $0.565/mile currently. I’ll likely trade it in within year one or two and replace it with another Maverick.

Thanks to everyone for your courteous replies. For those of you that felt it was necessary to be rude, tacky or just plain offensive...well I guess you know what you can go do.
The point to my initial inquiry was that in the Ford promotional videos and print ads I have seen, Ford seemed to have a particular demographic in mind. That being the late 20s to early 30s group (I have no idea what Gen that might be), and I was interested to find out.
This forum, considering it is Maverick specific, seemed like the appropriate place.
I asked two questions... age, I have already addressed. The reason for the occupation question was really about Income. Not income specifically but about where a person was/is in life, e.g. student, young person with first job etc. Ford obviously decided on a price point and created a truck around that if you will. Again were they on target? From the responses I received maybe...maybe not.
While analytics is not my speciality and I have a very small sample size (as was pointed out ) it seems that many of you are a little older, have good jobs and stable incomes. My presumption is therefore that while Ford hit a home run with the Maverick it may not be due to who they thought it would be ???
In my bio I stated that I hold 4 degrees. The point was not to be braggadocious but to simply illustrate that I am continuously curious. There was/is no nefarious reason for the question. I failed to mention in my bio that I spent 25 yrs as a regional sales and marketing director for a Fortune Fifty company. So you now may be able to easily see my interest in the Maverick topic.
One respondent informed me that this topic somehow made it to some level of significance (if that is the correct vernacular) I hope its not the "Worst topic of all time" list. I don't post much so I really don't know about such things (yes even with my education..."haters need to hate"). Anyway it has been fun, with a few exceptions of course (see previous sentence). Thanks again for being gracious and Please, everyone stay safe and well this upcoming holiday season.

It occurred to me that Ford likely had a particular demographic in mind. I just wanted to see how that was panning out. My guess from the forum is that it may not be quite as expected. In most of the promo videos I have seen from Ford the truck was directed at the late 20 to early 30 group...I have no clue what Gen that is. Anyway from the responses so far there are many in 50s range...interesting.

This reminds me a lot of the Honda Element release back in 2003. The Element was a big hit, but not so much with the market the product planners predicted. While the Mav may be a bit more on-target, I think the appeal beyond the intended market definitely caught Ford off guard. Will be fun to see where they take it through its product cycle and beyond.

In a world full of easily offended humans, don't apologize. Clearly you aren't looking to steal SS#'s, just another excited Mav owner.

36. Law Enforcement. Was not looking for anything when I ordered....just realized there may be some opportunity to snag an awesome new vehicle, for an excellent deal, while supplies/prices last.

Thanks! And thanks for what you do! Please stay safe!!!!!!!

There are a few "younger" folks here but I think most of the younger crowd are on Reddit. I don't do Reddit, don't even know if I spelled it correctly. LoL

The Showcase link is at the top of each page. To add pictures of a vehicle, after clicking on Showcase, click "Add Item", then select Maverick or other vehicles. There are already several nice rides posted in the Showcase. Members can "like" a picture, it's kind of like appreciating a particular car at a car show.

Thanks for the info...will do!!!!!!

I’m 71 years old, I’m a Vietnam Veteran (Army), retired Police Captain (35 yrs) collecting a pension, and $256 a month from Social Security. I worked 3 days a week until COVID, then stayed home and ate. I love cars, had many and keep my ‘68 Chevy Nova convertible ready for a good weather drive. Buying XLT Ecoboost with most packages cause I really want one. Love Toyota’s, especially Hybrid RAV4 and enjoy my grandkids. I get calls from scammers constantly and love keeping them on the phone as long as possible. Oh and I love sweet music and long walks on the Jersey Shore and have been known to prove that grown men can cry. Enough? Cause I have loads more…

I don't know if you saw from my previous posts, I am Vietnam as well. WELCOME HOME!
