Follow us on Facebook: / focusedgarage Instagram: / focusedgarage They grow up so fast. My Ford Maverick already has 10,000 miles on it. In this video I share what my experience has been like with the vehicle so far.
I bought a 2023 Lariat hybrid and have 9,000 miles on it. I love it. I have it setup to flat tow behind our class C RV. I also tow my 16’ Alumacraft boat behind the Maverick and it tow great. MPG averages close to 40.
Had my maverick (2022) for over a year now, got 31k miles and I’ve got no complaints. Sadly, I did not doge the air bag recall but my dealer handled the install pretty well. I like the apple CarPlay but think I’ve destroyed my lightning port on my phone to the point where it can’t transmit a signal anymore. Charges fine, but overall a solid vehicle by ford IMO.
I have a 2023 Maverick XL AWD out of Rockford,IL. I agree with you about the 3,500 miles oil changes. I plan on changing my oil & filter every 5,000 miles and changing the trans, PTU, and Diff fluid every 30,000 miles. Going to be undercoating the truck in the next couple of weeks with Blaster’ Undercoating. Great video!
Man what are the odds. I’m expecting my cactus gray maverick any day now, AND that’s my exact mtb. The Siskiu T8 in charcoal lol. Love the choices and great video!
I've been reading on Maverick forums that the Costco brand oil isn't up to to Fords specs. I believe it's based on LSPI (low speed pre ignition) requirements of turbo charged engines.
How well-suited is the Maverick for hills? When I go mountain biking in Washington State, I occasionally have to climb some really steep hills, and my CX-5 feels really underpowered.
I just got a 23 XL hybrid. Mine pull to the right when I give it some gas. Dealer said alignment is fine that it's tork steer! I also have a 22 hybrid for 16 months and never noticed it. My daughter took it to college 4 months ago so I can't test them side by side! Do you feel the tork steer?
Just curious, why not just use straps to handle bar and keep the bike standing up in bed? Feel like I’m missing something on why everyone uses the pad/tailgate method
It’s not a truck. It’s a car with a bed. It has no hauling or towing capability. It’s way over priced. And the dealers are making it even more over priced. Ford is not making many to keep the price inflated. So no thanks.
It has capable towing and hauling for the average user. It's not over priced. Compared to other trucks, it's affordable and low priced. It appears to me that you are just one of those Ford haters that felt the need to bash a Ford product.
Thanks for the comment. Also lol @ the original comment calling it overpriced. The average price of a new car is $48,000 yet the Maverick starts in the low 20's. It is literally one of the CHEAPEST new cars you can buy.
