Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! Ford Maverick or….?
Brother, I know 6 people with new Mavericks. 5 are hybrids and 1 of them has the 2.0 AWD with 4 k and not one of them will ever tow!!! That's not who Ford made the Maverick for. They are all my co workers. I bought my 2022 almost 3 years ago and my co workers fell in love with it that they all have one.
Nice lol. I love my 23 XL hybrid, I don't even have a tow hitch on mine 🤣 but it can fit my mountain bike with the tailgate up, it's tight, but it fits. It has no problem carrying 1100lbs, it gets over 40mpg and the bed can fit a washer and dryer at the same time. All for cheaper than a Honda Civic for the bare bones XL trim. The maverick is the perfect vehicle at the perfect time.
I tow my dirt toy on camping weekends. Love it. Suzuki samurai crawler on a dual axle trailer. 4k tow package handles no problem. Only truck i can daily and tow
You’re projecting your lifestyle, choices, and logic onto Ford and the market,
I did have a 2.0 4k and towed my side by side with it a few times on a 12ft trailer. Did wonderful, preferred using it to my 08 Silverado actually. I do agree that most people won’t though.
Great job!
I have a 2023 XLT with the 2.0 eco boost. Don’t have all wheel drive. I get on average 30-31 mpg in just normal mixed driving. Probably 70% 2 lane roads 30% city.
The 2023 xlt came with the keypad which is one of the best features I’ve ever had in a car. I don’t know why every car maker doesn’t have it.
You know how you’re outside mowing your yard and you remember your sunglasses are in your truck but your truck keys are in the house? No problem, keypad to the rescue.
That time your at the beach and all you need is your beach stuff and your worried about leaving your truck key lay in the bag with your beach stuff? No problem, lock them in the maverick and use the key pad to get back in.
I love that feature so much and use it every day.
It was funny your water bottle rolled in to the floor and one of the features the maverick has are dedicated water bottle holders in each door. If you have the right sized water bottle they snap right in.
It’s the perfect sized truck for me. If I ever need to tow a trailer it would only be for a lawn mower or something.
Love my 24 maverick hybrid, I got the XL for work, very satisfied so far
I also have the XL, but with the ecoboost engine. I love the truck. It drives and handles very good. I like the XLT, also, but don't think it is worth $2500 more than the XL.
I am thinking about getting the xl hybrid also would you ever say you regret not getting the xlt? Also any tips on add ons i should get that you wish you did?
@@legacy4496 I only got the full size spare, tow hitch, and rubber bed mat. I like my truck just the way it is. The XLT is a nice truck. I just don't need the extra options. It's really a matter of personal preference.
I prefer the key over the push buttom but ive had all them. I opted for the ranger because i wanted to downsize to a smaller truck but still needed some basic towing capability. So i went for the ranger. The 2.3L moves hows the 2.0L
Id be cool to see a rs or raptor trim on this
what's with the shiny black exterior mirrors ? My 2022 has flat black which blend much better.
all XLT models previously had exterior touch pad. Ford gets cheaper every year while prices balloon.
Rear seat back is straight up no tilt option and is uncomfortable for that.
No HD radio, a bummer for sure.
this seems to have luxury package yet does not have body colored exterior mirrors.
Does have a more luxury, padded steering wheel which is nice compared to old.
I am unable to figure out which options are on this vehicle ? Does not seem to agree with build and price.
You are too low on your mpg for the ecoboost. I am averaging 28 to 29 on my 2024 Maverick XL with the 2.0 engine. I only have 2300 miles on the truck and have not taken any long trips yet. I am pretty sure the truck will get 30-32 mpg on long trips.
That truck does have heated seats and steering wheel, get your stuff clear before reviewing
Seriously, no keyless entry?😢
hi
You say the tailgate isn’t “damped”. You mentioned that why? Did you find the tailgate to be heavy? You do understand it’s a truck and not a minivan or suv. Lemme just say if you need a “damped” tailgate on a truck this small you’re not looking for a truck. You’re looking for a minivan or suv. JS
I only need to know one thing.
Dont buy it.
Why not??
can i know why not i’m really interested in getting one
