Good review and video! I've been waiting for my XLT Hybrid for a little over 10 months now and got word its going to be built first week of Sept. Just like yours - Area 51. I hope I get it soon!
443 days here but that ended in Feb. Congrats! That's almost my truck except no bed liner, sunroof and oxford white color. I wanted that A51 color but I have no shade in the driveway. Even the white paint got hot today in the bright sun! I would have liked to see the A51 color in the bed. Great color. I figure I can always add the spray in. I'm using the bed mat and tailgate protector.
@@padfoo That's a good point. I ordered my Maverick in early June of last year at my dealer and my order went into Ford in September. Over the weekend, my dealer told me that it could be another year before I get my truck. That would put my wait to just under 22 months. Man, that would suck. I've dabbled with the idea of cancelling my order and just buying a GMC or Chevy truck. Holding firm for now.
TBH, I'm not sure I believe what my dealer is telling me. I think they are trying their hardest to get me to cancel my order so that they can sell it for much higher.
@Greg MB I actually felt that way for a while when I was not getting a lot of feedback from ford. My salesperson was really responsive so I did feel connected to the process, just not informed. I calmed myself by calling ford often and following the experiences of others!
You guys are really patient. I waited six months for EcoBoost with deluxe package and they were never able to build it. I bought a Hyundai Santa Cruz instead and I'm very happy with
I am planning to order one when the order banks open. The cost savings imo is worth the wait. You are a very tall guy. I hope I can see over the dash board with my 5'7" self. Good video😁
Don't wait....go to your Ford dealer of choice now and get your name added to a list. There is no obligation but at least you will be on the list. I did that many months before the order banks opened and I was 10th on the list. Mine is now built and waiting for it to ship to Canada.
Great overview of your new truck. Looking forward to picking mine up hopefully in a few months. XLT Hybrid Alto Blue, just got scheduled for production in May. The wait sucks.
@@fwk32 I placed my order when order banks opened last September so I've only been waiting for 6 months so far. I know some guys at MTC have been waiting for over 500 days and still haven't been scheduled for production. That really sucks. I would probably have moved onto another vehicle if I were in that position but fortunately got scheduled last week and now it's only a few more months to wait for my Maverick.
@@aznhomig Oh man. Yeah I put my order into the dealer in early June of last year and they gave Ford all the orders at the same time in September. Still waiting on any good news.
Been waiting for almost a year yes it is frustrating. You think ford would build these at a 2nd factory. I do get email from ford, we are sorry for the delay and so forth. I wish they would send me a vin number so to check on it on line . But so far dealer ship is just as lost as I am. The only thing I remember is that it’s yellow. I’m going to wait hopefully I’ll get it soon. Let’s hope for the best
Update. Went to my local ford dealer they had one that a customer ordered and then refused it. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time so I bought it.. now the funny part is I have been waiting a year and get the standard ford email. 3 days after I bought this one ford send me a email, congratulations you order for the maverick is scheduled to be built starting the week of july 13th. Figures any way I’m picking the one I saw this week tomorrow the dealership is the same place I placed the order so they can sell the original I ordered. ;).
I will be at 533 days between order date and build week of April 17th for my Alto Blue XLT Hybrid. I would love to kill that annoying boinking while the door is open. Drives me nutz. But the first thing that will be ditched is the orange bits. Orange is for slow moving vehicles, such as Amish buggies.
487 days? I ordered my Maverick the very first day the 2023s could be ordered - 2 September, 2022.This video was done 2 months ago. If you had done it TODAY, it would be 278 days. If your dealer says 487, he lied to you.
Ford dealership never informed me about ordering! Dummies instead called this January trying to sell me a 'car'!! Sales manager was arrogant and pissed me off! No longer is it 23 thousand. Was gonna be my first new one in 50 years. Mirrors and rear window sounds scary. Not a work truck obviously.
Congrats on your new Maverick. I ordered almost the same exact thing, except I didn't get the sunroof or co-pilot system. One thing I noticed in the video was that since I don't have the co-pilot system, I have Blindspot cutouts in the mirrors and they work just fine for me.
Thanks for posting myself I waited eighteen months for my black Maverick hybrid once I got it is worth every day
Very nice! Mine is scheduled for august! Cant wait for some road trips

Great video man! Where you at in NC, I'm in Wilmington !
Hey appreciate comments awful lot of people interested in higher mileage
Just took delivery of my 23' XLT Hybrid as well! Definitely worth the wait!
WOW! I am looking at the 2024 XL. What do you think? Will you trade in your 2023?
Thats the color I see the most, glad mine isn't just because i see so many of em this color!

I never know if watching these videos makes the wait easier or harder. Hahaha. I appreciate your content, man.
Listen, I debated whether it was worth the wait or not... honestly, keeping the cost in mind it's worth it for me!

@@padfoo Who do you call at Ford?

The Santa Cruz is a great vehicle, I thought about it myself!

How long have you been waiting for yours?

I waited 18 months for my Maverick Lariat. Arrived only 3 week ago.
Hi! You can raise your seat height with your power seat. Def adjust it, it takes a lot of pushes up,but it does go up and changes your view 🥸
Thanks for the tip!

Perfect! I ordered one in September of last year and still waiting for the build date. Btw Ford is adding another shift in July.
Just 487 days? I beat your waiting time. I waited 18 months that's 540 days for my Maverick Hybrid.
That hurts!
I will be at 533 days between order date and build week of April 17th for my Alto Blue XLT Hybrid. I would love to kill that annoying boinking while the door is open. Drives me nutz.

Lol man I like it but, you gotta make it yours!
Chiming with door open is annoying, next video please either close the door or silence it somehow
Really nice “front” on your truck. Looks good
What did that cost you? How long ago did u order it

Yo! Close the door or put the freaking seat belt on. I had to exist out of the video. 😮😮😮😮😢😢😢😢
Nice video!! And 6' 2" isn't exactly typical for an adult 😂 😊.... you are tall!!!

Used that power seat..😂😂
I will try 😂
Sorry…..I like the Maverick, I just don’t think it’s a truck. A truck needs to be able to tow and haul large payloads.
