I went down a rabbit hole after the 25 Mav info was released, mostly out of curiosity with potential purchase in a few years after my need for a midsize truck goes away.
The basic info about it is available, so I won't belabor that stuff. I like the updated tech and hybrid AWD. Here is info I have mined out about the options.
*The price is sneaking up, as expected, so no low 20k price tags any more.
*FX4 requires the ecoboost engine, but even if you buy a Lariat with ecoboost, you can't add the FX4. No idea why. If I were in the market, that would keep me from ordering one.
*Tremor can't get the 4K tow package because of the softer suspension. That's a bummer it seems, though I understand why now.
*No opinion or info on the LOBO, other than it seems like the Ford version of a "ricer"
I'd still be more inclined to want a real 4x4, but there's a few years to see where it goes.
