Ford Maverick Build And Price: Don't Be Fooled, Everything you Need to Know! 

Agreed and excellent points. Thanks for the comment

F150s(base with some packages)were selling for that last year Anyways good options

I’m absolutely enjoying seeing people’s faces realizing they can now afford a pickup

Enjoy that transmission, in a couple years going to be a bunch of grenaded mavericks in junk yards.

@@CSestp You did not watch that video, did you?

I really appreciate that you have taken the time to share your experience and intel with the community. Thank you for your time.

Is the cargo box easily user removable? It looks like it would block 4x8 sheets on the side that it is installed on.

@@Sembazuru I’m not sure as I haven’t got the box yet- and it absolutely would block a sheet of plywood. I can tell you that a sheet of 4x8 fits very snugly in the back with a quarter inch to spare on each side of the tailgate opening… as I just picked up some today, and the tailgate in mid position plus a 2X7 on edge and 2X4 flat that I placed across the molded in slots hold the sheet just fine. There are two anchors on each side of the truck adjacent to the tailgate- and the only place for the box to mount would be either on those rigid steel loops, or a hinge might replace the two loops on one side or the other- but I won’t know until I get the box. I would assume the box can be removed, but only when the tailgate is open- and the tailgate automatically locks whenever you lock the truck. However-I am not sure I even need the box at this point. Everything I was planning on storing in it turns out to fit easily under the rear seat with room to spare And that includes a first aid kit, 4 flares, 50 feet of 7mm rope, 4 bungee cords, a set of jumper cables, and 4 ratcheted tie down straps. The box might be useful for holding loose items that might otherwise roll around in the bed. But between the behind the rear seat, and under the rear seat storage areas, a sizable glovebox and center console, and some cubbies on and under the dash and in door storage- the truck has a lot more storage inside than my old crew cab Tacoma.

Thank you for taking the time to help me inform the community. I really appreciate the support.

Splash guards are easy to retrofit.

Living in the northeast those splash guards are gonna really be needed, so I'm willing to take the delay. If I was down south I would pass on them entirely.

Wow the freaking splash guards are holding it up?!? Lmaooo wow.

I find the addition of some "mud flaps" would slow or stop a build !

Awesome. Congrats William.and thank you for dropping your details with the community

Thank you George for the support. Wow that kind of mileage is great. You must be very responsible when it comes to maintenance and decent with some tools. Thank you for sharing. If you have a moment I'd be curious knowing what kind of repairs you needed to do to get to that kind of mileage. Thanks again

@@Johnnyscarcarereviews thanks! I have replaced maybe 3 alternators, two radiators. Biggest job was upper intake manifold gasket replacement. I also recently replaced all front end suspension. Ball joints, Tie rod ends, control arm bushings. Recently replaced all oxygen sensors and fuel injector spider. Had to get a ignition coil awhile back. Checked mpg and it was 17.5 last week. I was really surprised lol but I am ready for some better mpg and no more maintenance for awhile lol this maverick will push past the $30,000 mark I want to stay below but we will see. Thanks again

@@craftycub Respect your vehicle , congrats on 370K. Hey, there will be someone glad to take the baton when you decide to pass it on. I was flattered to hear "you are the guy someone wants to buy a car from". Sold a 17 year old car, 208K miles, journal with every light bulb , oil change

This thing can only tow max 4K pounds right? I'd be very weary of towing anything remotely close to 4K lol I'd keep it under 3k maybe 3250

I own a BMW and am not offended by the comment lol

Thank you for the share. I like these hybrids and also prefer a plug in. I'll switch as soon as the plug in is offered and look forward to the day, if it comes, thst we have aluminium Ion graphene layered sheet batteries that add 3 to 4 times the autonomy and charge 60x faster. If this occurs small 1 to 5kw batteries in a hybrid format could possible almost never need gas as they would recharge 100% everything we release the gas pedal for a short period of time.

Hopefully I'm not just dreaming.

@Jon Doe The hybrid system in the maverick will be very durable. Its a very durable powertrain.

@@KB-bh9hp good to know 👍

@@KB-bh9hp has the power train been around in something else for a while, still relatively new in the maverick

I'm hoping cruise will be added to the XL in upcoming years.

Grats, when did you order and when is ur scheduled build date?

SWEET! Thanks for sharing and hope to see pictures on the Maverick fb page when you get it

How much is the total price?

Same but with a sunroof! Happy driving !!

Great point in regards to the key. Thank you for the help and support

Gross load, front wheel drive, slick hill. Show me a Maverick video about THAT!

Great points

I just found this vehicle in my recommendations a day ago, does it add the cooling to the back seats?

@@0Jsays no

@@jimmybaggs5342 thank you for helping

And it also comes with a beefier rear end and axles (one of the mechanics told me at the dealership told me that)

Thanks Duncan for watching and dropping a comment.

RICHARD thank you. Awesome.share. I appreciate it

I don't mind the Bimmer drivers so much. Inconsiderate but at least they move and don't dawdle. The worst are Prius drivers.

@@timjohnson1199 worse are the Prius drivers that upgrade to a Tesla!

The alto blue totally BLUE me away when I seen it. 💙

You are extremely kind. Thank you for your positivity. The very rare dealer might sell below MSRP but id focus on making sure to get all the internet rebates. The dealer cost vs msrp is very low on these models which is different from big equiped trucks. Also withbinventories being so low and Maverick allotments also being low id say a fair deal is to make sure they sign an offer promising Ford % rate as well now as well as signing thst you have the option to take the internet deal at time of delivery incase % goes down or rebates go up.

Thank you very much for watching and for dropping your excellent Intel. Appreciate the time that you took to do this

Ya the navy color is awsome

That makes sense considering the complexity of the build. By complexity I mean their you have a few items that have more demand than supply. Thank you for the feedback. Please keep us updated

If you dont mind me asking what was your total after taxes and everything else

​@@jirya957 XLT Lux, moonroof, alto blue @ $28k

Smart, solid move. Thank you for sharing and keep us updated please. Happy Thanksgiving Phil.

Phil- Did you get it? Do you like it? Thanks!!

@@MountainHuckleberry yes I took delivery of my Maverick on June 15 and love this truck! The hybrid MPG is as advertised, and then some, getting the best in town 50.1 mpg. Definitely worth the wait!😃

@@MountainHuckleberry yes I took delivery of my Maverick on June 15 and love this truck! The hybrid MPG is as advertised, and then some, getting the best in town 50.1 mpg. Definitely worth the wait!😃

Yes! I am full out velocity. Loving it on my Bronco. This truck with its simple but smart truck design takes flashy colors well. The Blue and orange on the inside work too

I was under the impression that , on the XL package, the only color would be "Onyx Black". I've watched a ton of these videos, and so far, (unless I've simply missed it, or I misunderstood it), and my understanding is the "XL-trim" only comes in one color. If I'm wrong, please let me know!! Thx

No cruise control 😭 or I'd have been an XL guy too

@@j.s.8496 Nope, check the Ford website, you can build an XL in tons of colors. Heads up though-no cruise control option on the XL.

@@milo8425 That's just CRAZY....

Agree I'm in need of a new vehicle and I just can't order without seeing/driving them.

Same here i drove one and order it same day haha. Just do it if your on the fence about it you'll be impressed with it.

Yep. I don't mind ordering my vehicle and waiting for the build but I've got to see one in person and test drive one before placing an order for one.

Well, it's going to be much like the Bronco.

The manager at the dealership I went to told me to go ahead and spec out/order what I want. No deposit down. When it comes in I can test drive it. If I don't like it, no problem. He was confident it would sell anyways. Truck was ordered and in the mean time I was able to test drive one at a different dealership. I'm confident I will be buying the truck I ordered. The interior cab space was really nice and comfortable.

Thank you for the support and positivity. I really appreciate it.

Thank you for the positivity. I really appreciate it

Thank you Leland for taking the time to remind me why I do this. I appreciate it.

Having ankle problems, I need cruise on whatever I buy.

Ditto

Velocity Blue is the best in my books as well

And I added the 360 package to mine too.

Good point Gerald. Thank you for the intel and for watching

Great info. And intel Iron Reed. Thank you for watching and for the information. Very helpful and appreciated.

Activex is fantastic for the user and a responsible smart choice by Ford. I live the stuff

Thank you for taking the time to leave a well explained comment

I know, some dealers are awful.

@@Johnnyscarcarereviews For 40K you can get a 1/2 ton real pickup that will do much more!

Thank you for the share. That is good useful information. Hybrids are currently waiting on EPA numbers to be able to move to the next phase

Thank you for taking the time to let me know. The stream will be great with my morning coffee. Also thank you Lou C for the continued help and support

Thank you for taking the time to drop this very helpful comment. I asked my Ford Techs and they quickly said no, but it is great knowing it is doable. I hope you continue to drop I to the channel and comments as it helps the community learn and grow together.

The lariet has cruise.

Thank you for watching and for dropping a comment.

I expect FX4 shocks to be great on bad roads.

Have you gotten your maverick yet?

@@3nthusiast nope. I haven't even received the email from Ford with the VIN. I sent an email to the rep at the dealership I went through in Friday but haven't heard back.

I believe the lariat lux package comes with a sunroof

@@glenmortimer2503 maybe. I honestly don't remember seeing it when I put my order in back in November. I haven't heard anything from Ford yet so God only knows when I will receive the truck.

Thank you for taking the time to share those pros and cons. Excellent build we have the same but without co pilot as Marie wanted to respect a budget. Originally she was going to XL and I talked her into XLT and then luxury pkg. I couldn't get her to get more. Lol. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the community. It is helpful

@@Johnnyscarcarereviews No problem Johny! I decided to go with Co-pilot 360, as my insurance gives me a discount for blind spot monitoring. Plus it may reduce the chance of getting into an accident. Which to me is certainly worth the price.

That's not a window. It's a PORTHOLE!

Although I never really use the rear slide window much. But I got it bc I have a dog and when he rides with me I open it. So that's my pro... other times it's closed. Also it's sealed pretty well.

Urhh pro… convenient nose rest for man’s best friend.

I got it wrong. You are ofcourse very correct thank you for the help

Arden, when did you order?

when was it ordered

@@GabeKubanda Ford has it on 08/02/2021. I submitted to my dealer on 07/20/2021

@@ardenpowers7730 count yourself lucky my friend, still waiting on a date from my dealer, but may not be for several more months.

@@GabeKubanda Thank you . . . and I do feel fortunate

AWESOME! I like how you found the good and enemies and don't get hooked up on 1 detail....such as no cruise

Thank you for taking the time to leave some positivity

Is I really appreciate your supportive and encouraging comment.

Thank you for sharing this with me. It helps me justify to Marie the time a spend making these videos. Glad I could help and I appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment

Fantastic Robert. Thank you for sharing intel and for watching. CONGRATS

Very smart on your part. Thank you

Still need reverse lights...

The 12-volt charge line (higher current) for the 7-pin connector version would still need to be run back, but for the 4-pin that isn't a problem as long as the reverse wire is there already. When I used to deliver new box trucks & class C RVs out of Elhart, IN years ago I developed a set of clamp-on adaptors including a clamp-on hitch stinger so I could tow my '08 Ford Ranger with me, One gets to learn the wiring scheme for the big three and Freightliner in a heck of a hurry when your brake lights depend on it. I needed the +12 volt line as I needed to keep a small battery charged for my portable braking unit. Fortunately, the '08 Ranger had an electronic tow mode since it was 4x4, relieving me from having to disconnect the driveshaft.

6 months later and no word on my order :(

Yay my truck is built. Soon I can pick it up.

@@anitaguess2020 may I ask which model and options you chose.

Yes ours is a long wait as well

I think you will really enjoy how smooth the ride is.

Smart. Thank you.

Thank you Evan for watching and for taking the time to leave a comment. I appreciate it

Thanknyou for the feedback. Really appreciate the help

That's still a good price

Yeah I'd also prefer if from the start the fees were included.

Good feedback. Thank you

Lol. I love your comment because for some.thst is so true and all of us have been behind that person. In my case several times per week. Almost annoys me as much as stops signs on main road thst stops traffic for a mostly unused road. In 2.5 years I've never encountered side traffic so what a waste of gas, brake pads, the environment and my hair loss due to frustration with the hypocritical stop sign. Some say "but is slows down traffic and protects the kids." Well the cops can give all the tickets they want in town for crazy speeding as opposed to on the highway. Anyways the kids want a cleaner environment.

Unfortunately I have to slightly disagree. Yes I too have been behind those drivers and get irritated, however there is at least one area where the “360” is very handy if not an absolute necessity and that’s in the typical mall/home center parking lot. The same people that have problems paying attention to safe and courteous driving are whipping through the parking lot at well above a safe speed. The “360” package might help avoid an accident and a claim on your insurance.

@@charlesleonard7780 I don't disagree with you in theory, as "those" drivers absolutely put us all at risk, so awareness enhancement technologies do make sense. However, I believe that all of these technologies are actually making it easier for people to apply focus on things other than driving.

Great point

Howard I enjoy your comment. Yeah the orange is not for everyone. It might be a love or hate color as it flashes for sure. As for the grey blue maybe it will grow on you. I wasn't sure with the original photos and thought the Larait interior or XL was much more to my liking. Once I sat in the XLT a few times it grew on me and feels like an old pair of jeans. Comfortable and maybe not the flashiest like suit pants but just perfect for me.

A few Maverick recalls but the Mavericks seem to have all been assembled very well. No missing paint etc

Awesome congrats and thanks for dropping a comment.

What package/ accessories did you go with?

@@ThePowerOfOneThePowerOfTwo XLT 2k tow. Long story short, I needed a new car and my neighbors works at Ford. Showed me what was being delivered that week and I bought the truck right then.

Thank you for taking the time to comment. It helps the channel out

Ryan thank you for the information. Next time order in advance with Tim Bartz at Long McArthur as he will sell at Ford's price

Area 51 xlt luxury package and hybrid since my Bronco is going to eat gas Andy 94 mustang uses 70 per week in gas. RIGHT NOW MARIE city drives a 2018 mustang Gt for an 11.9l per 100km average or about 23.5mpg

Wow, great video! You pack so much useful information into these that I don't see anywhere else. Do you know the MPG on the 2.0, both FWD & AWD? I never hear Anyone talk about. Thank You!

@@CKLWOHIO a window sticker got leaked showing 22 city 29 hw 25 combined for the turbo awd version. I'm Def getting the hybrid!

Yeah that's all rims aren't bad at all. The look is grown on me

Garrett that is awesome. When did you order and what powertrain? Did you order Lux pack?

Already Canceled thank you for watching and Inappreciate the intel you left for the community. Right on!

Edit... Aftermarket spray liner. which actually has a life time warranty vs. three years for the OEM spray liner.

Thank you for helping out the community with quality information. Take care good sir

Texas certified roofing congrats and thank you for sharing. I hope you will keep us updated in regards to build date, delivery time, delivery and dealership experience as well as your impressions on the truck

@@Johnnyscarcarereviews thank you, this was my 3rd order that finally got a built date been waiting 2 years. Been driving my 2023 f-150 raptor and realized I no longer need a full size truck. So hopefully now I can get a new Porsche 911 allocation that I been trying to get for 3 years 😂

Robert i wish I could but dealers do not publicly share their allotment numbers vs waiting list. HoWEVER, either this weekend ot Tuesday at latest I'll share how Ford has publicly stated they have switched to building by build date and not dealer allotment for the Maverick. Now I'll cover what the real deal is BUT in the meantime to discover a good dealer vs bad 1. Check Google rating 2. At arrival ask sales consultant if they will honor and sign that they promise you will pay the 1st available 2023 build and price price and protect and gaurentee the interest rate offered. Now I have 100% confidence I Tim Bartz at Long McArthur and they can walk you through the drop ship process. Good luck and let us know ow how everything goes. Another dealer I trust is Town and Country. If ever their is something off I'm sure Mitchel Watson with his 6 ft 4 presence will make sure his team walks a straight line and they also sell at msrp for orders.

Thank you for ypur kindness

Melvin, thank you for showing the community here that the Maverick fills a perfect space. Than kyou for the comment.

So frustrating. Good luck Sig and keep us updated. We love our Area 51 xlt kux hybrid mav

Thank you for the Intel Daniel I appreciate that you took the time to help share with us what you know

Thank you for taking the time to share some positivity.

Sorry to hear that. It is odd to have a truck be Ford's least expensive vehicle. We look forward to our hybrid and the payments will be almost half of the Broncos. Should help.

Smart move due to the higher demand than supply of the co pilot 360. Thank you.for watching

Thank you. Great share. I'm 5 10 and adjusted both front seats to my height and there was nice rear interior space but my height is very normal for my area. We are not tall Ranch men over hear.

Hi Scott. It's not too late to make the change and it won't affect your place in line. Your place in line is very much based on your dealer but if I have to read tea leaves I'd say chances are good that in February or March you get a build date and VIN, and then 30 to 45 days later you get built and then 15 to 30 days later it arrives at dealer

Thank you for watching Scott.

Great point. Thank you for taking g the time to make it and help the community its out.Today at 4pm illtalk about this and what to do to avoid trouble and getting ripped off

reviews pls do cause I didn't really understand the premium fee ? I do remember him apologizing for the cost falling on us

you got ripped off

Agreed. It's a big plus. Honestly I don't have the time or memory to put in a key and lock the bed.

Thank you for the support and for taking the time to drop a comment

4k from factory for sure for upgraded Radiator, better cooling fan and trans cooler otherwise there is no trans cooler.

I thought the hybrid had an available 2000lb towing option with a 4 pin connector?

Thank you Brady for taking the time to drop a comment. I appreciate it

500 fully open, 400 halfway/mid-position.

Hello Lou C. Thanks for all the support. Yes the wife's Maverick is ordered. I added it a few weeks ago without telling her. I was sure I'd win this bet. No build date yet but I suspect November unless 8 allotments ahead of me have moonroofs and if they get are outside outside available supply

I'll need to look into the weight but 500 open makes sense and 300 or 400 at halfway makes sense as less support should equal less weight.

Can't find the official answer. I would have guessed 500 open. 400 or 300 closed and 300 or 400 at half or angled position.

@@inversiondefense thank you for the help
