Typical Millennials reviewing a vehicle, spoiled and know nothing about cars and relies on their phones for everything and having kids conveniently in their late 30’s so they’ll take care of them when they get old.
She works a job that results in muddy boots and he runs a successful auto blog, you should try to see people as humans rather than though whatever boomer echo chamber lens you’ve found yourself in online.
Haha...Congrats on getting your happy comment pinned. Typical d-bag that shows hate towards anyone younger that are more successful in life. Why not just keep it to yourself and find another channel to watch?
They as a coupe are a bit first world problems but if he works with reviewing vehicles he would naturally be pointing out certain differences in vehicles because he has seen lots of different ones. Having power everything is nice but not necessary. It’s really all those little things that make a company rich. If everyone was buying the xl hybrid Ford would have to stop selling the model all together. I personally think it’s great that some people purchased the lariats and such. It keeps the cost lower for the xlt since the profit margins are better on higher trims.
A key fob is stil more practical than a key pad…you still have to carry the key fob, it offers proximity lock and unlock (not the most reliable but still an option), offers one button push versus a key pad’s multi-button code, and replacing a worn key fob is easier than a key pad.
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME! Thanks for having an interest, makes me happy to see it in use. Rooting for you both, you look like a hardworking and happy couple.
I can't wait to get the reliability and safety scores for this. I'm really hoping that everything turns out to be good enough. This is the most attractive truck in the market for me right now, good fuel economy, big enough, not too off-road, affordable, it's just a truck. The steering wheel can get a leather cover for 50-60 dollars (stitched to fit so it's not bulky and ugly)
Reliability ratings for both the hybrid and Ecoboost are looking solid about two years out. The maverick hybrid has been on multiple most hybrid lists alongside the Corolla hybrid.
Lariat Trim does not have a split fold rear seat and the rear bench does fold down, the strap to pull is in between the center headrest and the passenger side head rest.
My wife wanted to buy a new Bronco Sport in early 2021. We checked out a Big Bend model. I told her we weren’t paying $32k for a vehicle with a plastic steering wheel. She ended up ordering the Outer Banks model that comes standard with a leather wrapped wheel and she loves it. It’s been very reliable in 18k miles of use.
I really like your review of this truck. Very straight forward and frank. There are several key point take always I get out of it. 1) the Maverick just flat out works, and gets the job done. No muss, no fuss. 2) it’s very competent and good at what it does. 3) It just fits for the tasks intended for it. 4) And the fact your considering keeping it longer than originally intended is very high praise indeed. I don’t really expect Ford will fix the glitchy radio/phone connectivity issues. Not until they totally swap out the Infotainment platform for a newer one. I would like to see the new Maverick Tremor front bumper installed on the FX-4. And I would like to see the rear locker made available as well, but not at the cost of losing the 4K tow package and the trailer brake controller nor the extra price tag of the Tremor package. I am not really looking for the bigger tires, suspension lift, and more expensive interior of the Tremor. Just the front bumper would work for me. It just looks better and functions better for clearance issues.
My gf last car was a Ford Escape with the pad and it was useful when we went surfing. You just leave everything in the car and lock using the pad. So useful!
I’m picking up my Maverick Lariat hybrid today. It’s been in the shop for nearly 2 months. The battery cable failed and it took Ford 7 weeks to find a part to repair it.
For the most part I hate new vehicles. But I kinda like this one. I have a 1983 dodge Half ton pick up with a slant six. And a 1993 dodge 2500 diesel. Very happy with my tracks.
I think the reason for your Car play issues is because the phone might be preferring to use charging from the wireless charger, but not the wired connection, and it’s disconnecting electrical signal and data output through the lightning port because it’s preferring the wireless charging, plus it prefers it because the wireless is charging the phone first, then wired. Ditch the wireless charger and it should solve your problems
I got 23,000 miles on my Mav only some minor issues. Have not taken in off road yet. I also have the Yakima Overhaul HD Bed Rack (might get a rooftop tent for camping).
I’m interested in purchasing one Leary of buying ford only experience with it is my dads old explorer sport trac, what issues can you say you’ve had? Mechanical or just things you don’t personally like? Thank you!
@@mauricioserratotechtravelvlog the windshield washer pump stopped working. The gear knob is also annoying; you cannot put the vehicle in neutral with the engine not running ( or least I can’t figure it out)
Its interesting to see what people others think about the various features in vehicles. My hybrid Maverick is scheduled for May. I got the XL. Power equipment, remote entry, Bluetooth, cruise control, thats all I need.
Not to change the subject of the video, but I was wondering if you'll be getting your hands on an F150 with the 5.0L anytime soon. The company I work for just purchased a '22 STX with the 5.0L as parts and supply run vehicle and even after just taking it around the block a few times, I absolutely LOVE IT!!!
thank you for expanding my knowledge on my Maverick Truck.. Now I know how to lock the truck from the outside and unlock the rest of the doors by pushing the appropriate keypad buttons.
I see it's an Ecoboost. I would not wait to change the oil every 7,000 miles or more. Change it no more than every 5,000 or less. Carbon issues plague the Ecoboost. Think about installing an oil catch can on it as well.
I love this little truck! The XLT with just the FX4 along with the 4K Tow & Co-Pilot 360 Packages is exactly how I'd order it. I'd rather have it without the Lux Package personally especially on the XLT Trim.
I am getting a 2024 xlt lux in March. I was wondering if the defroster has worked well for you as I am in New York. Also do you feel standard tires were sufficient in snow in Michigan. My 2010 Jetta Wagen really needed snow tires. Thank you so much for your videos!
Thank you for the informative video. How do you feel about being able to see over the steering wheel. Do you sit high enough or do you have to adjust the seat to make it higher so you see better. Thank you Is this Area 51 Color?
When you jack the seat full up, it's a nice view over the hood. My wife says the same. She's 5ft 7inches. I'm 5/11. I'd like to know if this couple agrees.
I have had a few fords, and never found the keypads useful. I currently drive a Dodge with proximity unlock. I just walk up to my dodge put my hand on the door handle and it unlocks. Locking it is just as simple, I click a button on the door handle (or tailgate). My keys stay in my pocket, and no need to remember codes. Granted I can't lock my keys in the car and be certain the car will stay locked.
I have a Lariat with the luxury package and it does that. Not sure if it was a part of the Lariat trim or the lux package. I wish it was like my 2015 Mazda where I just walk away with the keys in my pocket and it automatically locks. I keep forgetting to touch the door handle to lock this one.
No mention of all those new Ford Broncos and Rangers you just drove by. The 23 is supposed to have a slightly different material on the steering wheel.
Don't you think the floor mat looks dirty very easy? I have a Maverick and I found very annoying, even when you are in the city it gets dirty very fast.
Also, i just saw ur tremor mpg videos vs this 26 vs 30 mpg. I heard the oem scorpion arent very good, so i am looking for the at3 235 65 r17 in the tremor [without the 1 "lift of tremor" ia it to noisy on the tremor vs the stock oem pirelli? Good thing of the at3 in the 235 size is that there are the same weight pirelli 31 pound atr oem tires and at3 are all around better than pirellis...thata is why they got the pirelli atr plus bc of the critic. Saludos!
Having been a Ford Truck owner for over 25 years ... mainly F150's ... I wish you well with your vehicle. What turned me off on this was the fact that its made in Mexico and that quality control issues may arise especially on 1st year vehicles.

Hi from Chile i am searching ur videos 👌 of Mavericks, good job. If u can help me with the car magnetic mount ! Were i can buy ,i think it will suit my s22 ultra with magsafe charging. Slds from chile
Good update -- I love that color as well, so I ordered it 👍 I will be getting some wheel fender flares to bias it more towards male gender😁 Also order the Lariat just to have that powered rear window The only I will be unhappy with is the center display -- I think the Lariat should have been a better larger upgraded display.

How is the undercarriage holding up with Michigan weather? I’ve seen some reviews that say the Mavericks are already showing early corrosion (half shafts, muffler, suspension components, etc.).
@@DailyMotor I’d appreciate that! I’m considering trying to order one in the next year or so, and I’m also in Michigan - our winters aren’t easy on cars haha. Great job with the content on this channel, by the way.
I think most keep keys with them so the key pad ends up an unused feature. So why add tech and cost when so few use it? I have it on my f150 and have never used it.
The keypad is ugly AF, the center console display is to small and the massive hole is a massive F up, the software is lacking in functionality and appeal, lastly the truck would benefit from a non cloth or leather fabric option. I do like the truck, the price is right, the size is great, and its towing is just right. Just needs a few minor fixes.
I would not be putting 7000 miles on anything without changing the oil, unless your gonna trade it in a few yrs. 5000 miles is the max you should be running between oil changes, Personally, mine is always changed at 4000 miles, but I bought my vehicle to pay off and run a few yrs after the notes
@@DailyMotor Don't feel bad. The recommended oil change interval on my supercharged Mercedes was every 10,000 miles. These guys who are saying every 4-5,000 for an oil change are back in the detergent/non-detergent oil days. Modern synthetic oil in a modern car is good for 7,500 minimum under hard driving. I put 318,000 miles on my last car (98 New Beetle) and would still be driving it if someone didn't hit me on the freeway. I changed the oil about every 10k miles. Zero engine problems in that car. Also for years I drove as my daily driver one of the toughest cars on oil- a vintage air cooled Bug in Northern California summers. We get to 115 degrees F at least a couple of times a year, so I know about changing oil often. 1,500-2,500 on that car... lol.
I suspect an all electric Maverick will arrive within a couple of years. Most of the architecture in the guts of the platform are already in place to accommodate it. It’s just not ready yet. Ford already has enough on their plate with this little truck to keep them busy for a while.
Yeah. Electric grids that cannot sustain millions of people charging simultaneously. Batteries that NEED to be replaced at 5-7 years and cost 1/3-1/2 the price of the vehicle total cost. You can keep your “electric car future”. Plan on calling out of work a lot because you can’t charge your EV. Plan on understanding that the current grid is powered by LOTS of coal. 👍🏻 Let’s burn even more of it to “help” the environment.
@@Darkmattermonkey77 except for some issues with Nissan Leafs, a majority of electric car batteries are lasting far longer than 5 to 7 years. And there are companies that refurbish or repair the batteries at far less than OEM and dealer replacement costs. And the grid charging capacity is growing. The shortage is not as dire as many are claiming. It will take another 10 to 15 years minimum for the number of electric cars to become a large part of the in service automotive fleet.
Ford's are some of the more reliable cars out there. We've owned vehicles from most brands, Toyota is the only one that makes more reliable cars from our experience, and even that is debatable.
My black belt instructor just bought one. Better than his lifted GMC with wasted space. Also no such thing as Alpha. The author of the book said it many times.
@@DailyMotor I'm looking at buying a small truck for the first time in my life and these comments are cracking me up. keep making videos, they are very helpful and relevant and I appreciate it.

It still boggles my mind that no other company uses a keypad system. It is super convenient.
Ford patented it, wish other companies could too though.
Agreed. Now that I'm used to it I practically never carry my keys anywhere.
I miss my Explorer that had it. I was never locked out thanks to it. Wish Mustang had them too.

Thanks for your long term thoughts on the mav! Hoping to get an order in for a ‘23.
When there’s a few more in the salvage yard you can find some upgrades.
Planning to get an XLT next year.

So most of them?
That keypad is useful for going to the beach
What is the name of cell phone magnet holder and the adapters on Amazon for to use a tablet I have a 2022 maverick xlt
I see it's an Ecoboost. I would not wait to change the oil every 7,000 miles or more. Change it no more than every 5,000 or less. Carbon issues plague the Ecoboost. Think about installing an oil catch can on it as well.
I think they are a must on any force induction engine. Wish it was factory standard.

The Lariat model does not have a split-fold back seat. I WISH my Lariat did and maybe the 2023 will update and include that feature.
Ford has a patent on the key pad which is why it’s not on other vehicles
Lariat trim does not have a split fold rear seat.
great review you two. thanks.
Now I know I want to get one when they're available as a plug-in hybrid. Love my Volt but I miss having a truck
The next model is also supposed to feature an AWD hybrid variant
"We actually backed into..."

Don't you think the floor mat looks dirty very easy? I have a Maverick and I found very annoying, even when you are in the city it gets dirty very fast.
Better than carpet where the dirt gets trapped. With the mats a good cleaner and a wipe will get it 100% clean
I would put splash guards on it,also I think 7000 mile oil change intervals is to far,go at least 5000 miles,no more
Hope you don’t have the leaking fuel tank model, or the loose seatbelt model, or the one with the faulty airbags.
Does the cover bed cover have a locking mechanism... Would be risky keeping it out right?
Just got this cover a few days ago. The cover release is only accessible once you open the tailgate and the tailgate locks, so it's reasonably secure.

What's the link for the phone holder. It looks nice!!!
“Alyssa what do you think of the bed” total play-ya question
Good update -- I love that color as well, so I ordered it 👍
I will be getting some wheel fender flares to bias it more towards male gender😁
Also order the Lariat just to have that powered rear window
The only I will be unhappy with is the center display -- I think the Lariat should have been a better larger upgraded display.
I like that cubby phone holder -- I will be firing up my 3D printer for that one - will need to get some orange filament.
So excited now that I watch this vid -- mine is due early Oct.

Looks like the seller we went with is no longer selling. But there are others if you search for Maverick cubby on Etsy.
My fob works great it stays in my pocket I hit the button once unlocks my door hit the button twice unlock the back door my key fob works great
Ours doesn’t have proxy key.
I think most keep keys with them so the key pad ends up an unused feature. So why add tech and cost when so few use it? I have it on my f150 and have never used it.
Thats a you problem
Great story though 🤦♀️
How about gas mileage?
27 mpg overall.
@@DailyMotor what was mpg when you towed over 4k lbs?
Too late! We know your code!

I do like the truck, the price is right, the size is great, and its towing is just right. Just needs a few minor fixes.
Towing past the limit is a really bad idea.

Yes it is. The evening sun probably made everything look more blue in this video.

It would be great if it was an all electric vehicle.
The future is electric. No noise, no emissions, less fuel costs and less maintenance costs.
I suspect an all electric Maverick will arrive within a couple of years. Most of the architecture in the guts of the platform are already in place to accommodate it. It’s just not ready yet. Ford already has enough on their plate with this little truck to keep them busy for a while.
Yeah. Electric grids that cannot sustain millions of people charging simultaneously. Batteries that NEED to be replaced at 5-7 years and cost 1/3-1/2 the price of the vehicle total cost. You can keep your “electric car future”. Plan on calling out of work a lot because you can’t charge your EV. Plan on understanding that the current grid is powered by LOTS of coal. 👍🏻 Let’s burn even more of it to “help” the environment.
@@Darkmattermonkey77 except for some issues with Nissan Leafs, a majority of electric car batteries are lasting far longer than 5 to 7 years. And there are companies that refurbish or repair the batteries at far less than OEM and dealer replacement costs. And the grid charging capacity is growing. The shortage is not as dire as many are claiming. It will take another 10 to 15 years minimum for the number of electric cars to become a large part of the in service automotive fleet.
It's actually worse for the environment digging up lithium and cobalt via slave labor abroad and these batteries are not degradable but go on
This is a worktruck for a Beta male
Just get me a 6 speed manual one and I’m good…keep your useless gadgets
Gender neutral? WTF are you talking about?
Ford junk run away
Ford's are some of the more reliable cars out there. We've owned vehicles from most brands, Toyota is the only one that makes more reliable cars from our experience, and even that is debatable.
Nice “truck “ for a beta male
My black belt instructor just bought one. Better than his lifted GMC with wasted space. Also no such thing as Alpha. The author of the book said it many times.
@@falcorzed Alphas do exist. One tell: he’s the guy not online mouthing off about alpha crap.
Ford is going broke over excessive recalls
If i ever hear the words "gender neutral" in a pickup truck review again im going to lose it.
Most cringe truck review i have ever seen.
What are you going to lose? Your toxic masculinity?
@@DailyMotor I'm looking at buying a small truck for the first time in my life and these comments are cracking me up. keep making videos, they are very helpful and relevant and I appreciate it.
