Does anyone here own a Maverick?

[ETH]

I'm really intrigued by this "truck".
Yes, I put that in quotations for obvious reasons...

However, for many people hybrid pickup at this price point just makes a lot of sense to me.

So the question I have is, has anyone had a real ownership experience in the limited time this has been on the road and what are your impressions living with it?

I am thinking of getting one as a runabout for house supplies, local ski towing etc and to replace an older runabout Civic. I live outside any city limits and from what I have read from readers, on the hwy (versus local slower speed roads) the hybrid gets about 30 and the 2L turbo gets 29....plus the 4WD can tow 4K versus 2K for the hybrid. So unless you are using the truck for mainly city driving, I think the 2L turbo 4WD may be the better option for a few K more.

I've reviewed a couple on the front page of the site.

Sid's reviews are very in-depth and you'll learn a lot more from those than short-term owner comments.

Own a Maverick Hybrid Cactus Grey, 35XX miles, have a pedal commander on it (makes a difference), and actually is a practical little truck. Hauled some stone and other stuff, nice to have a bed and it serves a purpose 90% of the time. Gas savings was what made me order one. Sure it can't tow a lot, but 43 mpg normal driving, 37 hwy, works for me. top speed is 109mph, just be cause i wanted to see where it was at lol.

We had one ordered for the wife before we had ever seen one in person. Once it arrived at the dealer we declined the sale because of the way it looked in real life compared to the sales brochure

I went read this article: 2022 Ford Maverick Review | A Lot of New Truck for the Money

Can someone tell me if it has a big battery like EV's do? If so, what's the cost to replace it? That's the only concern i have. I'm looking into replacements for when my old b2300 dies and the base model price is very appealing. I just want a bare bones truck with an automatic. I am tired of dailying a manual.

Thank you for mentioning this. I didnt know a non hybrid is available.

The battery is relatively small. I think about the size of a full sheet cake.

Measuring things in units of cake is how you can tell I'm fat.

I think it's a dumb concept...but people are eating them up.

Typically are being purchased by Toyota/Honda type customers. Definitely not the normal Ford loyal.

What do the base models go out the door for if "cash" is paid? For example if i take out a loan, it wont be through Ford nor their lenders. Ill use a credit union.

Yup.
Gayish. lol

It's cheap basic transportation, with decent utility. Manage expectations accordingly.

However; one with the 2.0, AWD, and a 93 tune isn't bad around town.

Mine was 25XXX OTD. XLT Hybrid. Line-X bedliner and undercoated, moonroof, rear slide window, tint, pedal commander, Couple of little goodies. Don't expect it to be perfect because it's not, but great for the price point and does daily well. Keep it as a daily and have money left over for your toys/hobbies.
