I've reserved a Bronco Sport Badlands for Wifey -- this Maverick truck may be my replacement, especially if it looks this the Bronco Sport (to the C Pillar) and has a Badlands Trim (with the 2.0L)

If this has the 2.0 Ecoboost as an option just like the Bronco Sport, which I am sure it will, then there will be some really quick AWD Mavericks on the road in no time after this comes out... Just you wait, this will be a fun little truck. My wife is ardent SUV/CUV and has a wonderful Mazda CX-5 currently, but when I showed her this she was VERY interested. I might try to talk here into one if she doesn't go Model Y Tesla with her next ride.

I think Ford will sell TONS of them. The tuner crowd will eat them up too. One of these lowered, with AWD, a modified 2.0 Ecoboost, sticky tires, etc. would be a fun little ride and have utility that a hatchback or wagon would never have.

I think earlier this year sales of pickups surpassed those of cars in the US market and that trend is expected to continue , selling trucks remains highly profitable, esp for Ford GM and FCA, so wise move by Ford to intro a new model, probably relatively low developmental cost as it appears to utilize some design attributes of the Ranger.

If it didn't have "Maverick" on the tailgate I would say this is the 6g Ranger.

Looking at the contour of the hood and the taillight cutouts, I see Bronco Sport. The bed would probably hold a 250cc dirt bike with the tailgate down- they fit in a Ridgeline.

I'm skeptical about the powertrains. The 1.5L I-3 is "drony" in a '20 Escape IMO; the 8-spd short shifts at too low an rpm. The 2.0L I-4 is starting to show the same P0301-P0304 codes -engine misfire coolant in cylinder that the 1.6L and 1.5L I-4s are experiencing. I'd consider the hybrid AWD, but it will only be available in a crew cab, so a pass for me.

What nickname should it have? Mav? "MavLine?" 'Rick? 'Ricky?

I wonder if we'll see a Maverick RS with the 2.3 and a manual. Or an ST with an automatic would even be ok.

I like the Ranger, but I kind of like speed too.

would think it might be offered in an all electric version at some point .

Tune it.
Then lower it.

Was just doin a build on a 2021 f150 for fun. It really made the new ranger feel outdated.
Maybe that was just me. Good thing the ranger has all the features I would need and isnt over 50 grand.

But that 7.2 kw power pack and the 36 gal fuel tank on the f150 though. OOOo hubba hubba. ? dios mio

Until you get to the dealer and they tell you that you're stupid to look at anything but an F150 because that's what you really want.
