Thanks Tracy my wife loves it!! So far we’re averaging about 39 mpg with 50/50 highway and around town driving. It corners better than my Ranger!! Not quite the oomph but close. I’m quite surprised for a hybrid.

I think they are very nice & would like to have one one day.

Yeah I was on the fence about this when we ordered it, now I’m a believer, great value for the money in fit, finish and comfort. Again quite surprised in a good way!!! No regrets except the wait time…

A coworker of mine has a maverick, After seeing one in person and comparing side by side with the ranger, ill keep my ranger.

The maverick looks like an upgraded sport track to me, and from what my coworker states, hes not happy with it considering we both do the same style of usage, that being trailer towing, hunting, fishing, etc.. ive been in his truck and hes been in mine and both are happy with the ranger, he wishes he didnt get the mav.

I built one up yesterday after seeing your post with the FX4 and AT tires. Almost perfect but would just need an inch or two of lift in my opinion.
I'm liking the Maverick a lot though.

It’s really a great vehicle that grows on you day by day but I’ll keep the Ranger for capability!!! Both are a great option if you can afford it!!!

I like the Maverick. You will likely appreciate the seat height at entry and exit. Same for the bed height with the tailgate down and when reaching in over the bedsides. The truck has a lot of utility. Of course you like your Ranger, but the Maverick is a good alternative and will likely grow on you.
Even though you own the Ranger, depreciation is depreciation. I know the market is still a little off right now. Trading in or selling the Ranger may or may not make sense.

BUT HOW IS THE RIDE? SOFT, HARD INBETWEEN, JUST RIGHT?

Hey Andy, Congratulations - it looks great.

The more I see them, the more I like them. Parked next to your Ranger, it looks to be about the same size as the 4g Ranger I traded for my 2019. I’ve seen a few around town and at Home Depot. I watched a guy get in his and it was interesting to see because instead of climbing up into the cab, he sat down into it, like a car. I really hope that’s making things easier for your wife.

I think this is a great option for a lot of people and that gas mileage must be a sigh of relief these days. I’m so glad you’re able to have both vehicles. Your neighbours likely think that’s a crazy idea, then you drive by them at the gas station and wave. ?

Ok not my idea, ordered a Maverick hybrid lariat loaded, it was supposed to be my wife’s truck. She’s fallen out of love with it since we ordered last September. It’s now built and in shipping.

She asked if I want to trade my 2021 Ranger Lariat FX4, Rapid Red with black appearance package.. My first thought is hell no.

We’re aged people and off-road really hurt’s her back from multiple spinal fusion surgery’s . I know I don’t want to do It but just tossing it out there. I’m just trying wrap my head around the idea… she’s wanting to keep her Hyundai 2017 Santa Fe sport AWD instead… IDK..

Edit: Just noticed I'm way late to the party...nice driveway!

The Maverick seems to be a pretty nice little truck.
A guy that volunteers with my trail building crew drives a Ridgeline - not the same, but similar - and I'm always surprised at how useful it is when put to work along side more traditional trucks.

Soft to medium range. Very stable and corners better than the Ranger. Very comfortable to drive.

I like them except for the offset license plate. One of the guys at work just bought one an I especially like the interior.

BTW we own both outright no loans..

No payment mod is the BEST mod there is. Congrats!

Yep it’s a little roomier than the Ranger. A little goes a long way..
