Went to a dealer today to purchase an XLT FWD Hybrid. sticker $ 27k. When it came down to the numbers, they came back with a $5k markup on the truck citing "demand". I told them no based on principle. Won't pay more than MSRP. I enjoyed the test drive - nice little vehicle but if we pay over MSRP, they will continue to charge over MSRP.
@@hibbasc1 Ha! Guess the "demand" wasn't what they thought it was... or more likely after the test drive they thought they had a chump. Good for you for walking. I'da certainly done the same.
I absolutely love my 23 XL hybrid. Amazing little truck, almost 10k miles so far, I always get well over 40mpg per tank, even now with snow tires, it's currently at 42mpg after 425 miles, with 140 until empty.
$4000 "Market Adjustment" on every one of these at my local dealership. That pushed the one I was looking at out of it's market. I bought a 23 Colorado Trail Boss instead. This truck is a great idea, but Ford can't keep their scummy dealers in check.
I just paused video at point where you can see passenger front window.... Sure enough, it appears they have that thing marked up at least $3k though it's hard to make out.
@@Cartalks10041K, and I got it at MSRP. The Maverick I was looking at was around 30k, but had the 4k Market Adjustment. I just made the stretch and paid a little more to get a more capable truck. My truck was also pretty tricky to get, I had 3 sell out from under me while looking. I lucked out when I stopped at the dealership to look at one that already sold and another was just getting unloaded.
Man, I think it’s a solid buy from the first look and when folks like you that have bought it and are having decent experiences I think it’s def worth it!
Luckily a dealer an hour away had an cancel order for a 24 XL. Went in and grabbed it right away. Scheduled built 1/15, anyone know the average time assembly line to dealer?
I was watching a ford plant documentary yesterday and they said they laid off 700 folks from where the Mach-e was being built cause of low EV demand and they also said that they can’t keep up with the High Maverick demands either lol. Maybe they should’ve put all those folks in mavericks plant and not had them laid off. Soo bro idk how much longer you gonna have to wait😭 I hope you get it in January! I low key also want this truck for no reason 😂 it’s just so good haha
I've had my 23 Maverick XL since July and I love that truck. You can't beat it for the price especially if you are just looking for a cheap economy truck. A great replacement for the old Ford Rangers.
I just got my 2023 xl of the lot for 25k didn’t had to wait 6-12 months 😅 I think they put a mark up of $1,000 because I thought it cost 24k. What ya think I still got a good deal for my hybrid?
@@jaye9300 agreed when it comes to being was it a good deal on paper? Nope! Haha. But if I think of it on the flip side tho that he was able to pay just $1000 extra for the truck he really wanted without having to wait whereas someone who might be paying Msrp or $1k less but having to wait 18 months. That $1k he paid is for the time’s value imo.
I would like it more if I wouldn't keep getting Deep Sleep Mode alerts and then the interior lights not working. The dealer has done some software updates but hasn't helped. I have 2000 miles on it and get 40+ mpg.@@Cartalks100
Just entered the Maverick club and loving it. I do agree some packages are over priced for what you get. This truck shouldn't go over 35K for all bells and whistles. The problem of course is inflation and vehicle popularity.
2024 but I believe the cactus gray kinda replaced the silver because I do believe this was part of the fleet delivery. I wanted to a white one but they didn’t have white XL so I just went with the second common color :/. What color did you end up going with then?
Shadow Black, ordered one when the banks first opened back in July. A FWD Ecoboost with no options other than the 360 Co pilot assist. Have gotten 2 emails from Ford so far confirming order. They tell me that due to supply constraints and etc it has no built date yet.
@@John-kx3ng not sure how far are you from Chicago but I can ask my connections at ford and see if you can get one sooner? I’m guessing you can still cancel your current order and rebook if they give you a concrete date. Lmk and I’m happy to ask my guy at Ford.
About 7 hours east of Chicago in Ohio. I’m in no real hurry however I would like to have a ball park figure for when I might get it.. I was told by my Ford dealer that this is a simple build and its the Ecoboost which is in less demand. He also told me that once I get a build date that could be months out.
ya but having em right next to your electronic shift knob up front aint exactly all that either ... imagine back seater trying to reach cause his is missing
Didn’t the strike end for them to start production already? I heard folks should start getting deliveries in January that are long waiting for their mavericks!
@@Cartalks100 Scheduling has already been done for Oct., Nov., and December. We are now waiting on scheduling for January and February. The strike did not directly affect the Maverick since they are built in Mexico, unless some parts were in short supply. It will be at least 3 more months of waiting for me. That would be 17 months in all, if I get scheduled for January!
@@billquattlebaum1577 omg! That’s almost like how Toyota is for Canadian market. My cousin booked a RAV4 XLE hybrid in June this year and his delivery date is unknown but expected was 18 mos from the date of order
@@Cartalks100 Some have been waiting for two years!! Ford's allocation system is ridiculous! While some get their truck in 3 or 4 months, others wait one to two years!
Yeah I hear you. With the markups it makes the attraction level low cause when I first saw the XL and it’s true pricing I was like DAMN this is gonna sell like hot cakes but then then the markups made people sad including me
Love it! This means if you know where to and how to buy one you can still get it for a very good price! I love this truck way too much tbh. Congratulations!

Not a bad price for this XL Maverick it has everything you need in a truck no need to get fancy in my opinion.But geeze this guy was over talking I mean C'mon it's just a base model crew cab pick up.Whats there to know about it it's perty much just basic.
Haha, I was too excited for this one it’s so basic but so good. But genuinely thank you for the honest feedback! I’m getting better and the economy of words :). I appreciate you watching and commenting 🙌🏽

Then get online and find another dealership selling at MSRP. Not all Ford dealers are that greedy.
