Purchased this XLT 2.0 EcoBoost FWD, what questions do you have?

Hey guys, I purchased a XLT EB from a local dealer who dealer ordered one since my hybrid order was getting delayed and I couldn’t wait! If you have any questions, ask away and I will do my best to answer them!

my truck is a XLT in cactus gray
2.0 eco boost, FWD
Ford360
Trailer hitch
Weaterliners

Hows the interior seat material ? Does it feel durable ? I ordered same truck but in hybid, minus 360.

Did you pay over MSRP?

I’m one of the few who also bought a 2.0L FWD! I don’t expect you to do any 0-60 runs, but have you noticed any traction issues when punching it from a stop?

In the lower front bumper, both sides, where the tow hooks would come through, are those panels removable or are they molded into the front lower bumper?
TIA

Seat material feels durable, I’m putting seat covers on for my dog but if not for him I would be more than comfortable keeping them bare

Only 1000 over, dealership was good to work with

I haven’t noticed any traction issues but I’m not punching it, trying to keep under 4k rpm for the first few thousand as a break in

Reasonable.

Was this known from the start or did they tack this on once it was delivered?

Disregard: I just noticed that you said this was not your order and was dealer stock. In that case, only $1,000 over is pretty reasonable.

If it's not too much trouble, can you take a close up pick of the front license plate mount, and how its mounted?

Looks to be mounted from the underside but a close up confirmation would help. thanks

FYI, the Ford accessories webpage (https://accessories.ford.com/kit-rear-seat-cover-vnz6z-1863812-a.html#2022/Maverick) shows the standard 4knines rear pet seat cover in Charcoal for $159. I just ordered the same combo split rear pet cover (but with hammock option) on the 4knines website in Black for $81 shipped (https://4knines.com/collections/bac...t-cover-for-dogs-hammock-option-black-regular). I did sign up for the promo code, but worth it.

How does back seat knee space feel? Is it sufficient for average height folks 5’6” or so for 2-3 hr long trips? thanks

they are molded in, I suspect a dremel with a cutting wheel would make easy work of it though

I did the same actually just without the hammock or split
