Looks like i won't be driving a Maverick. Ford emailed me today to tell me that my Maverick had been delivered. I called the dealer today and they sold it out from under me to someone else.
Then the General Manager, whom I've spoken with half a dozen times since January, and had placed the...
2" and up one tire size is rather minor mod on a vehicle like this. I just don't like the shoes that come with it. That's all. I have done mods like this on nearly every vehicle I've owned, and all to suite what I am using them for, not what Ford is specking them to do.
I'll agree with all...
I've owned two F150s and a Transit Connect. And TBH i kind of liked the van better because I could tease 30mpg out of it on the highway. It was just less frustrating to own, even if i couldn't take it off road. But what's always stuck in my head is a 5k mile overland trip we did to New Mexico...
2" level lift on a Maverick doesn't make it anything like a Tremor. Just makes it a bit more capable. The maverick doesn't have a rear locker, Fox suspension, etc etc. And the Ranger can tow almost twice as much. Two very different trucks. Also, it's $20k cheaper than the Tremor, and even with...
If you want to compare taxes I guarantee you that if i add the cost of my health insurance to my total tax bill it'll beat yours! LOL
Before this i lived in Maryland, which had high sales tax AND high state and local income tax. The saying in Maryland is "we can tax that!"
She.
And my wife wanted a Taco more than I wanted the Ranger. LOL. But yeah, I reevaluated. We do a lot of highway only driving, and need one vehicle that's a bit better suited to pavement miles. The Tacoma will be our Overland rig. I'll likely do a 2" lift on the Maverick and add bigger...
Yep! Sales tax in Tacoma is 10%. The downside to living in a state with no Income Tax.
I suspect my dealer will put it on the lot for $3k-$5k above MSRP. MSRP on this truck is $46k.
My partner just bought a Tacoma TRD Off Road. We decided we didn't need two very similar trucks, and something with better mileage makes more sense for daily driving.
Also, I am getting the AWD Maverick with the Ecoboost engine, so it is fairly capable.
Ordered a Lariat Tremor in January. Got the email today that it's been built. But I'm buying a Maverick instead.
EDIT: Dealer took my custom Maverick order and sold it to someone else. I had waited months for that truck. Then told me they were confused since I'd ordered two vehicles (a...
I have a 4/11 build date, and I am waiting patiently. How many weeks are most of you who waiting between build date and delivery? Last time I bought a Ford via factory order I only waited 3 weeks between build and delivery to the Dealer. But it sounds like some people are waiting much longer...
My lariot Tremor MSRP was $45k. No dealer mark-up. They had one on the lot when I walked in, and they would have added $3k to MSRP if i had wanted to buy it. But because i placed a factory order they did not mark it up.
I had originally ordered a Maverick, then a month later decided to...
Placed an order 2 weeks ago for a Lariat Tremor in Silver. Waiting now for my VIN and build date. News of slow-down at ford truck plants is making me nervous. I'm hoping to have this by summer since it's going to be an overlanding rig
