I didn't really have any plan to buy a vehicle when I happened upon news of the Maverick in mid Aug. I'd been driving a 16 Soul I bought new and was happy with it. My main problem was that every once in awhile I couldn't fit something in it, and although 28-30mpg wasn't bad, I liked mpg projections for the hybrid. I also liked MSRP, so ordered an XL hybrid and only added hitch, rear window and 360. I've had it 3 weeks and am very satisfied with my choices. I have the soft bed cover on order and will be using my points to get it under $200, and have "installed" my bed liner, a piece of 3/4" plywood. I've hypermiled the first couple tanks and with mostly hwy came in at 45 and 42mpg. My 18 Silverado feels neglected as it gets very little attention anymore. When I realized my maverick wouldn't have CC I stopped using it on other vehicles as a training period. North TX can get cold but I'm from PA and never had heated seats or steering wheel. The heater works well, so in a few minutes I'm toasty. Radio sounds good to me, it drives great, I can haul stuff I couldn't in my car and gas milage is unbelievable. Note: I'm an older guy and used to simple things. I don't use my vehicles to impress people, so bare bones truck with steelies are just what I wasn't looking for but glad I found
Mister Gary I truly appreciate the time you have taken to share your experiences. This is fantastic for the community. I was certain we would get better than advertised mpg but that is impressive and better than I thought. My test this week returned 40mpg doing a mix of hwy and city but in below freezing.
@@beefnacos6258 well I'm kinda the same way but I wasn't locked into anything and I've since test drove every trim under the sun so I'm pretty sure I got my order just right for me
Absolutely love this wonderful little truck took delivery in December and now have 2000 miles on it. Getting 28.0. Mpg in town. Driving on ice today I was very impressed with the way it handled. Ford hit a grand slam with it. If they keep the cost the same they are going to make a fortune on volume sales. They really are ahead of everyone else with this. By the time/ or if other’s realize what we have been needing Ford’s bank accounts are going to be full. But they need to keep the price down. I told my wife I would like to give her the XLT and get me a XL to use. Two new trucks for the price of a one full size!!
I love your points Alvin. Price is important and currently very tempting to get 2. I agree and Ford in the snow and on ice are great as I covered in my recent Ford Bronco Video
Yeah I'll be waiting for a while these trucks aren't even proven yet. Everyone knows the F-150 is a proven truck. At 30,000 miles for all we know the batteries and these things can start crapping out.
Anticipation is so painfully beautiful. I wonder how big the stampede will be when ordering opens in August. I am honestly considering ordering a 2023 and I am still months away from getting my 2022!
I agree the standard radio is just fine. You can go into the settings and set it up the way you want it. Yes it does not have a ton of base, but who wants their truck to sound like a fart can. The trailer tow package is even worth if you drive in hot climates and want to extend your transmission life and keep the engine cooler. It also help with resale value as at 4000 pounds and 400 tongue weight it fills a nitch that many other small SUVs can only handle 3500 pounds. With 400 pounds tongue weight you will only have a 1 to 1.5 inch squat.
This truck with a rear seat delete kit would be awesome as an HVAC contractor. I have been looking at high roof - European style vans, but the mileage this things gets with AWD is impressive. I would tow a small trailer for installs or bigger jobs.
Thank you for all this information. I went to a dealer in Mendon Massachusetts USA, they had three Mavericks in stock, I test drove a 2.0L AWD model XL and liked it a lot. They have added a lot of extra options which brought the price up. If they call me and can meet me close to my budget, I just might buy it.
Normally their is no wiggle room on a Maverick at MSRP but if they upcharged a lot more than cost f those added options then their is a chance. Good luck I hope it works out for you.
Hi Johny, thank you for this informative video. It has helped clear up a lot of confusion and answered a lot of questions I had. It even answered questions that I didn't even know I have!
Salty Spades that is very kind of you to take the time to leave a comment. Knowing that I'm helping some really is encouraging. I appreciate the time.you took to watch and comment
Thanks for the spray in bed liner tip. I just ordered my XLT and Ford stopped the spray in bed liner offer, even within a package. They credited me $645 and putting in a drop in plastic bed liner for “free”. Thanks for your time providing info.
I think Ford did a beautiful job on the options this is actually been the best vehicle to buy in all my years of buying cars and I’m looking forward to this one be about six months but I’m not in any hurry I still got a car and will be summertime when I get it so I’ll be fine
Very informative. I have been looking at some of the older Rangers, and am now thinking this reinvented Maverick XLT. Finished entire video. Thanks for sharing, easy to follow.
Just wanted to say I appreciate the video. I've been playing with the online builder for a good while now and it seems to leave a lot of things in a gray area, leaving me questioning a lot of things. Your video helped to clear things up a ton. Thanks!
Thank you Tyler for taking the time to watch the video and also for taking the time to write a comment that is both encouraging and supportive. I really appreciate it as comments like this keep the channel going
Just Ordered today my 2022 Lariat fully loaded. Thanks for the great information. Kind of fell into the RUclips Rabbit Hole while researching as there is not a dealer in my area that has one to review. Keep up the great work
If you order online through Ford directly, and the Stealership wants to slap your order with markup gouging, are you obligated to finalize the transaction or can you opt to not play by their opportunistic B.S. and back out of the sale with zero loss?
Fords lane keep is actually quite good. Was driving a ranger in my work fleet on the freeway a few weeks ago and was testing it. It will very gently push the truck back into its lane. If you do that two or three times the driver alert warning pops up and recommends stopping for rest. The safety in new cars these days jumps by leaps and bounds. Great to see.
Congrats Capital concrete crushing! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to drop a nice comment. I've seen alto blue on a Bronco Sport and it is very nice.
Great review Sir! This was really informative. Ive done the process in reverse ahah. Watched this after purchasing my Maverick. I bought one/reserved my VIN today, XLT FX4 with tow and 360 package. Should be getting it in Mai!
I get that some people are focused on getting their new vehicle as quickly as possible, but for me, this is secondary. I want mine exactly as I want it, and I don't mind that I might have to wait longer. Best advice anyone can get, and it's related to being patient: Do not be gouged. If your dealer wants to charge you one thin dime more than sticker, WALK AWAY.
Finisher (as always, Hell beginner too;) good job as always and my Wife loves her Maverick XLT AWD!!! She’s put 700 miles on it since Dec 23rd, it did well in the same snow storm you guys had and she loves the heated seats and steering wheel and all of the Ford 360 safety features. Happy New Year Johny to you and your family;)
Thank you Lou C. I really appreciate your continued help and support. Thank you for taking the time to not only watch but also be a big part of the community hear. I am really glad your wife is liking it. I am very confident Marie will also love her Maverick especially the seats and steering wheel. Marie also loves picking up stuff from the hardware store for new projects so that bed will be handy.
@@robertoramos8257 $31,144.00 minus my X Pricing which I think was around $700.00 and they took the $499.00 Doc fee off because Ford stopped giving the Veterans Discount to Vietnam Veterans (go figure) and I’ve bought a ton of vehicles from them. So I think the Maine sales tax was a little over $1,600.00 on top of whatever was left;) I hope this helps. Oh, It was the XLT AWD With The Luxury Package, Ford 360, The Moon Roof, spare tire and the $175.00 Floor Mats in Hot Pepper Red. Ordered on July 2nd, delivered to the Dealership on December 20th and no Added Dealer Mark Ups either. Good luck with your build, hope it’s in your driveway soon;)
Nice overall review. I am hoping the 2023 brings with it a hybrid AWD Maverick. If they can do that, with XLT + luxury package under 30k, I think I'll be trying it out.
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews I ordered mine on jan 8th any & still haven't recieved an email from ford.Would you have any idea when i can expect an order confirmation?
D C that is a good safety measure you have in place. Do keep in mind most and I mean over 90% of this vehicle has quality pass me down parts that helped with keeping cost down as well as having a greater deal of reliabilty off the get go. Thank you for watching and for dropping a comment. Take care and have a great week!
Thank you for watching and I will be doing a new 2023 building price video once the website is up. Likely the order guide will be out either a few days or a few weeks before the building price saw a cover all the new changes. Thank you very much for taking the time to watch and I do appreciate that you also took the time to drop a comment
Good information. I wished it had been around when we ordered my wife's in August - scheduled for production in 3 weeks; I wonder of the sprayin bedliner was part of the delay. At any rate, well done. i will recommend your video to anyone is looking to get a Maverick. Thanks for the video and time. Cheers mate!
I don't plan on ever having a Maverick and i honestly didnt like them when they were revealed . But honestly they have grown on me and for 20k that is a pretty good deal
So yeah, we looked at a ford dealership today, and we kind of know what we want….in terms of getting our maverick ordered good video with the options…thanks🌈😃🤙
Thank you TNBUBBA lfor the update and please do keep us informed. Also a big thank you for watching and for dropping a comment as it helps youtube decide to suggest to others. The goal here is to have less people on Facebook who seem misinformed.
Very informative video! FYI... the Evasive Steering Assist does not automatically steer the vehicle. If the driver does not make any steering inputs, then the system will do nothing except brake the vehicle. The driver must initiate an emergency swerve in an attempt to avoid an obstacle. The Evasive Steering Assist will then assist with the emergency maneuver through additional steering support to avoid the obstacle. Drivers will often yank the wheel in a panic, but not yank the wheel far enough to swerve around. This system attempts to correct that.
Thank you for watching and for the intel. My 2015 mustang GT completely jersey me to the left and I actually fought the system and tried to steer right as I thought he road had made me swerve. Result was I just skimmed the rear bumper of a car stopped at a green light. Has it changed since then?
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews That’s interesting and perplexing. I don’t know what happened there. Were you (or the car’s safety system) braking hard? It’s not uncommon for a car to pull or rotate under hard braking… Ford didn’t debut Evasive Steering Assist technology until late 2016, and it has never been available in the Mustang for whatever reason. The system doesn’t automatically swerve for you because the vehicle is not equipped with sensors to determine if swerving will hit another vehicle. Ford can avoid liability by only activating the system when the driver initiates a swerve, putting the responsibility in the hands of the driver. This is the same reason why the parking assist features require the driver to operate the throttle and brakes in the older systems or why the driver must constantly depress a button in the newer systems… the driver is always in control and the vehicle’s system is just assisting. Or so they would argue.
Great video, definitely learned a few things. One thing I disagreed with was the sound system. For those of us that care about sound quality & drive a lot (30,000 miles/ year for me) an upgraded sound system is very important! (when I'm driving, I cant be at home listening to a home sound system, obviously lol)
Great video.... Fyi, I think you mean your frugality is famous... Saving money at the cost of luxury is being frugal IMO. I am with you on this as well.
Got my XLT hybrid four days ago. There’s a lot there. My biggest wish would be to have a booklet for the XL, XLT, and Lariat. I have spent time looking for stuff I don’t have and discovering stuff I DO have (talking you, heated steering wheel) It’s Area 51 which everyone likes. We are among winter storms so I haven’t been anywhere. Thanks for a good video.
Great points Thomas. That is why I started covering the Maverick from day 1. There was a lot of confusing or misleading info. For example you watch a drive review thst says this xlt has ..... makes you think you have the heated steering wheel bit that is lux pack but then it's important to know the delays linked to this choice. Thank you for watching amd for dropping your details/experience
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews My XLT has a heated steering wheel. Salesperson turned it on as a joke when we first moved it around. I need a. NOn-stormy day to get digging into it. Coming next week.
Not to mention that any bugs that may arise from the first run of the development might be corrected by the time the Maverick I order is ready to go, so double win.
The keypad is the best feature offered by ford. Men don’t carry purses. And my key ring has a shit load of keys on it. I hate carrying it around. Locking them in the truck is my go to move.
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews you are very welcome. You put out great content and come across as such a likeable person. I'm glad my comment served as encouragement. Keep up the good work.
# Finisher Looking to get the XLT with the Luxury package in the fall. The heated steering wheel is nice to have in the winter. Thanks for putting all this information in one video!
Once you add a few options to both the XL or XLT, it seems like a jump in models makes more sense. I am going to order 2023 and am stuck between XLT with luxury takes me close to Lariat and leather seats. If I remote the. start, do I need to put key in dash, or can it run from there?
I hope I understood your question. When you remote start the vehicle when you enter it will not go anywhere unless you put tue key in. For keyless models the key fob needs to be on you and you need to to depress the brake and hit thst start stop button.
I've been waiting 6 months already for my Maverick. I ordered all the wrong things for expediency, the Hybrid, XLT with the luxury package, spray in bed liner, and CoPilot 360.
Exactly what I would like to get. Unfortunately from what I've read the 2022 stock of hybrids is already all reserved. Hoping Ford finds a way to increase production for 2023, and other companies see the demand and move into the market.
At this point any ordered now will not be accepted by factory as 2022s are being g built for those thst have had their order in now for months. Either find a dealer that will take your build and put it in inline to order it as soon as order banks for the Maverick open or be their the morning they do open for 2023.
I am bummed that the 4K Tow Pkg does not include the 6.5" upgraded display in the instrument cluster. I had to get the FX4 for just that as I don't care about going offroad.
Ordering Lariat just for the pushbutton start. Hate digging my keys out of my pocket. Wish they had different interior option. Not a fan of the brown color.
I'm the same in regards to digging for keys however I like the Brown interior bit don't see why a second color was not offered. Ased on comment sna day experience, I'm sure it would have increased Lariat sales.
Good info👍 I love cruise control -- use it every chance I can get - keeps me out of trouble with my heavy foot🤣 Love all the safety features Got to have a good sound system -- a good subwoofer is a must for those long road trips. You can judge me all you want - in 2022 if you are not making a car with push button start, youre ripping the customer off. Cheers
BACK IN March April of 2021 there was transit connect speculation and I pushed hard to explain why bit made more sense to base it on the Escape/or corsair. It has the Corsair motor and tranny also offered as a high trim option on Escape and it the platform that underpins both including the Bronco Sport
I lived in Korea for 8 years. Hi-yoon-dye or hah-oon-dye Another one is sahm-soong. Really depends on the region and accent. Korean is cleaner and more articulate for those in Seoul further south in Ulsan where the factories are located is rougher and more harsh sounding.
Great show Johny as usual! My June 11 ordered XLT hybrid with build date supposedly is still "in production" as of week of Dec. 20th. Not completed yet. I wonder if the spray in bedliner is holding it up. 😪
I think car companies have enough sales experience to know what options customers are willing to spend money to have on a new car and cleverly craft the packages to extract max revenue. The only organizations better at separating you from your money is the “Mouse” in central Florida and Cruise lines. We decided we wanted an xlt Maverick with the safety so ok Copilot$$. Then heated seats, heated mirrors, spray in liner and hitch so ok xlt lux package$$$. Then we had a short 50 degree cool down in early October so my wife insists on cranking the single zone heat all the way up to hot. Well I’m not going to fuss or bake all through the cool fall and spring weather so dual control heat, Lariat$$$$. Adaptive cruise and lane centering would be nice so yep lariat lux$$$$$. So on October 20 after test driving a Maverick we ordered one. All this extra $$$$$ is possible because Carvana offered a stupid amount of money for my 2010 Tacoma. The money is in the bank waiting for the Maverick.
You have so well summarized many people experience. Had it been my Maverick then the same would have happened to me. Marie was able to remind me that I'll be in the truck less than 10% of my driving time and thst it's her money so she did a good job of stopping at xlt lux but originally wanted an xl...bit you know heated seats up North
On older Rangers, we could get key blanks from Ebay and program them ourselves. It was a procedure easy to do. Can we make extra keys that way in a Maverick? (dealers kill us to make extra keys)
So can you go for two packages, such as luxury and 4k tow? Is there overlap between the tow package and off-road package that would make you not get both?
Hi Dylan. Thank you for trusting me with your question. Ues you can get multiple packages. Their is some overlap between 4k and FX4 but at the price of the FX4 package vs what it offers other than the larger Radiator and cooling fan.
Hi Johnny, great video. I live in Los Angeles so the weather is always nice. I'm extremely cheap as well, the only option/feature I'm interested is the adaptive cruise control because it's L.A. What's the cheapest trim I can get just to get adaptive cruise control? Thank you so much!
I'd be interested to see how the door Keypad system has worked over the years it's been used. Do badgers like to mess with them & what happens if someone takes a hammer to it or prize it off with a chisel or something, will the owner still be able to get in the vehicle ?
Get into he vehicle yes. Look good no. If you live in an area with people hammering things of vehicles some justice needs to take place or its time to move

Do keep in mind most and I mean over 90% of this vehicle has quality pass me down parts that helped with keeping cost down as well as having a greater deal of reliabilty off the get go. Thank you for watching and for dropping a comment. Take care and have a great week!
Finisher… great video, very helpful information. I called my dealer and they said my truck was in production so hopefully it is coming soon.
Thank you for watching and for sharing the good news. Let us know what you think when you get it and have done a few miles please
Thanks for the info! I have being wanting to order an xl maverick. I finished the video
Thank you for watching and I will be doing a new 2023 building price video once the website is up. Likely the order guide will be out either a few days or a few weeks before the building price saw a cover all the new changes. Thank you very much for taking the time to watch and I do appreciate that you also took the time to drop a comment
Good information. I wished it had been around when we ordered my wife's in August - scheduled for production in 3 weeks; I wonder of the sprayin bedliner was part of the delay. At any rate, well done. i will recommend your video to anyone is looking to get a Maverick. Thanks for the video and time. Cheers mate!
Did u get it yet?
Kenn I really appreciate the support and it is encouraging. Thank you for your help
I watched a lot of Ford Maverick videos.
"I wished I knew about this video earlier" 😊
Good one
Haha. I love your comment. Gave me a chuckle and is encouraging. Thank you I appreciate that you took the time to watch and leave a comment.
Great info, I’m waiting for my XLT luxury package to arrive to dealership.
SEXYburrito69 keep us informed about your experience please. Thank you for watching and the comment t is appreciated
Thanks Jonny., finisher! Very helpful.
Thank you Grace for watching and for the help
I don't plan on ever having a Maverick and i honestly didnt like them when they were revealed . But honestly they have grown on me and for 20k that is a pretty good deal
I was not sold after the leaked commercial photos but it has seriously grown on me. Thank you for watching and dropping a comment.
Finisher. Great info. Thanks!
Thank you for watching and for the support. I appreciate it
finisher, thanks for a bunch of info I just cant decide on my truck
Good luck and thank you.for watching.
Finisher. Thanks for the alerts on the spray liner. I will call my dealer to see what I can do to speed it up now with your details. Appreciate it.
Enrique thank you for watching and your comment is appreciated. Thank you for the help and support.
So yeah, we looked at a ford dealership today, and we kind of know what we want….in terms of getting our maverick ordered good video with the options…thanks🌈😃🤙
Thanknyou Thomas for the feedback and positivity. I appreciate it.
The Easter Bunny will probably be bring mine since not scheduled for build yet. I am always a finisher. Keep up good work.
Thank you TNBUBBA lfor the update and please do keep us informed. Also a big thank you for watching and for dropping a comment as it helps youtube decide to suggest to others. The goal here is to have less people on Facebook who seem misinformed.
Very informative video! FYI... the Evasive Steering Assist does not automatically steer the vehicle. If the driver does not make any steering inputs, then the system will do nothing except brake the vehicle. The driver must initiate an emergency swerve in an attempt to avoid an obstacle. The Evasive Steering Assist will then assist with the emergency maneuver through additional steering support to avoid the obstacle. Drivers will often yank the wheel in a panic, but not yank the wheel far enough to swerve around. This system attempts to correct that.
Thank you for watching and for the intel. My 2015 mustang GT completely jersey me to the left and I actually fought the system and tried to steer right as I thought he road had made me swerve. Result was I just skimmed the rear bumper of a car stopped at a green light. Has it changed since then?
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews That’s interesting and perplexing. I don’t know what happened there. Were you (or the car’s safety system) braking hard? It’s not uncommon for a car to pull or rotate under hard braking… Ford didn’t debut Evasive Steering Assist technology until late 2016, and it has never been available in the Mustang for whatever reason. The system doesn’t automatically swerve for you because the vehicle is not equipped with sensors to determine if swerving will hit another vehicle. Ford can avoid liability by only activating the system when the driver initiates a swerve, putting the responsibility in the hands of the driver. This is the same reason why the parking assist features require the driver to operate the throttle and brakes in the older systems or why the driver must constantly depress a button in the newer systems… the driver is always in control and the vehicle’s system is just assisting. Or so they would argue.
Great video, definitely learned a few things. One thing I disagreed with was the sound system. For those of us that care about sound quality & drive a lot (30,000 miles/ year for me) an upgraded sound system is very important! (when I'm driving, I cant be at home listening to a home sound system, obviously lol)
Great point Chase. I hadn't considered it from that perspective. Thank you for watching and thanks for dropping a helpful comment
Depends on the quality of standard system . Wish you'd rated that .
Buy some quality speakers and install then yourself. I usually do this with all my new vehicles because usually the factory speakers are junk.
You are so much better off buying aftermarket speakers, amp, head unit. Factory upgrades are a poor value.
Lots of good info. More detail than I have in other videos.
Thank you for the encouragement. I really appreciate it.
Really good video, thanks!!
Thank you for the support and for watching. I appreciate you leaving that positive comment. It is encouraging
Great video.... Fyi, I think you mean your frugality is famous... Saving money at the cost of luxury is being frugal IMO. I am with you on this as well.
Right on Dunc. I speak French 90% of the time so I appreciate the help and love the support. Have a great week and hope to see you back soon!
Finished and appreciate the details.
I appreciate that you take the time to watch and drop a comment.
This was very helpful. Thanks
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to drop a comment.
Got my XLT hybrid four days ago. There’s a lot there. My biggest wish would be to have a booklet for the XL, XLT, and Lariat. I have spent time looking for stuff I don’t have and discovering stuff I DO have (talking you, heated steering wheel) It’s Area 51 which everyone likes. We are among winter storms so I haven’t been anywhere. Thanks for a good video.
Great points Thomas. That is why I started covering the Maverick from day 1. There was a lot of confusing or misleading info. For example you watch a drive review thst says this xlt has ..... makes you think you have the heated steering wheel bit that is lux pack but then it's important to know the delays linked to this choice. Thank you for watching amd for dropping your details/experience
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews My XLT has a heated steering wheel. Salesperson turned it on as a joke when we first moved it around. I need a. NOn-stormy day to get digging into it. Coming next week.
Good video, I never realized how much you get in the lariat pkg, wow.
Thank you Gary for watching. I appreciate the support.
Great sharing!
Thank you for the support.
I'm totally fine with waiting for the spray in bed liner. They tend to last much longer than plastic liners in my area
Joshua that is a very good point. Thank ypu for watching and for taking the time to drop a comment. It helps the community here grow.
Not to mention that any bugs that may arise from the first run of the development might be corrected by the time the Maverick I order is ready to go, so double win.
I got the blk out package on my XLT lol i just couldn't do the orange plus I really liked the rims on it
Solid looking truck
Your pronunciation is excellent. I admire this quality greatly.
Thank yuu Snowy Owl for watching and unless this is sarcasm then it is very encouraging and appreciated.
Bra you helped me out and great professional video 🍻
Jeff thanknyou for watching and the comment is appreciated and encouraging. 👍
Great 👍🏻 video Johny Finisher
Thank you ridgview for taking the time to help out, watch and leave a comment
The keypad is the best feature offered by ford. Men don’t carry purses. And my key ring has a shit load of keys on it. I hate carrying it around. Locking them in the truck is my go to move.
Lol. True most don't. I've ruined pockets due to keys so yes the keypad is a winner
Sounds like XLT w/ the Lux package is the way to go. Thanks for the info bro
Thank you Shane for taking the time to watch and drop a comment.
My 1992 Lincoln Town Car had automatic high beams. Now it’s standard!
Great point. I do love trickle down technology.
Outstanding review and outstanding channel in general
William I really appreciate that you took time to watch my videos and I really do appreciate your comment as it is a major source of encouragement.
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews you are very welcome. You put out great content and come across as such a likeable person. I'm glad my comment served as encouragement. Keep up the good work.
Finisher. Great video. Very informative.
Thank you Matthew for watching and for taking the time to drop a comment and helping our community grow.

Looking to get the XLT with the Luxury package in the fall. The heated steering wheel is nice to have in the winter. Thanks for putting all this information in one video!
Charles thank you for your positivity and support. I appreciate it
Once you add a few options to both the XL or XLT, it seems like a jump in models makes more sense. I am going to order 2023 and am stuck between XLT with luxury takes me close to Lariat and leather seats. If I remote the. start, do I need to put key in dash, or can it run from there?
I hope I understood your question. When you remote start the vehicle when you enter it will not go anywhere unless you put tue key in. For keyless models the key fob needs to be on you and you need to to depress the brake and hit thst start stop button.
I've been waiting 6 months already for my Maverick. I ordered all the wrong things for expediency, the Hybrid, XLT with the luxury package, spray in bed liner, and CoPilot 360.
Exactly what I would like to get. Unfortunately from what I've read the 2022 stock of hybrids is already all reserved. Hoping Ford finds a way to increase production for 2023, and other companies see the demand and move into the market.
Ifninwas in more of a hurry I'd swap to the new code Luxury package with drop in liner
Finisher ! Awesome info, thx so much. At this point, May 2022, is it worth just ordering a 2023 ??
At this point any ordered now will not be accepted by factory as 2022s are being g built for those thst have had their order in now for months. Either find a dealer that will take your build and put it in inline to order it as soon as order banks for the Maverick open or be their the morning they do open for 2023.
Hi Johny enjoyed the video. Thanks
Thank you Joe for watching g and for dropping a comment.
No b.s review. Thank you Johnny.
Thank ypu for the encouragement
Subd.
If you were an actor you could play Ab Lincoln so rad 👍 better looking of course..hey thanks for the videos btw. Cheers!
good Info finisher
Thank you John
Another finisher here, Johny - thanks for sharing. Also I'm interested in your nature channel if you want to point us to it!
Thank you Mark. It should be findable under Nature Action.
Love my Maverick xlt 360 4k lux. Finisher
Thank you for watching and the intel amd feedback is greatly appreciated
I am bummed that the 4K Tow Pkg does not include the 6.5" upgraded display in the instrument cluster. I had to get the FX4 for just that as I don't care about going offroad.
Great point that I talk about in tonight's episode 3
Ordering Lariat just for the pushbutton start. Hate digging my keys out of my pocket. Wish they had different interior option. Not a fan of the brown color.
I'm the same in regards to digging for keys however I like the Brown interior bit don't see why a second color was not offered. Ased on comment sna day experience, I'm sure it would have increased Lariat sales.
Finisher!)
Good info. Thanks
Thank you Yuri. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.
Explain things well good job
Thank you for watching
400 watt inverter, cab only is available even on the XL model (stand alone option 47K).
Thank you for watching and for the intel
Good info👍
I love cruise control -- use it every chance I can get - keeps me out of trouble with my heavy foot🤣
Love all the safety features
Got to have a good sound system -- a good subwoofer is a must for those long road trips.
You can judge me all you want - in 2022 if you are not making a car with push button start, youre ripping the customer off.
Cheers
Patrick that is fair. I'm a big fan of push button as well and some base does sound great
I agree!!
I agree but push start will make it more expensive so i kinda get why they don't offer it
Reminds me of a transit connect chopped to a pickup wonder if it's the same transmission and undercarriage on the front wheel drive unit
BACK IN March April of 2021 there was transit connect speculation and I pushed hard to explain why bit made more sense to base it on the Escape/or corsair. It has the Corsair motor and tranny also offered as a high trim option on Escape and it the platform that underpins both including the Bronco Sport
I order in nov 2021 xlt regular and I got the build date in Nov 1 year wait
Finisher Thanks for the honesty =)
Thank you for watching and supporting us with the comment.
I lived in Korea for 8 years. Hi-yoon-dye or hah-oon-dye Another one is sahm-soong. Really depends on the region and accent. Korean is cleaner and more articulate for those in Seoul further south in Ulsan where the factories are located is rougher and more harsh sounding.
Finisher. Thanks!!
Thank you Sarah for watching
Great show Johny as usual!
My June 11 ordered XLT hybrid with build date supposedly is still "in production" as of week of Dec. 20th.
Not completed yet. I wonder if the spray in bedliner is holding it up.
😪
Finisher thanks Johnny
Finsher thanks Johnny can you speak on the current situation in production
No it's not .....pure nonsense
It's completed.
@@russellgentile4719 Congrats ...have fun with the truck.
I think car companies have enough sales experience to know what options customers are willing to spend money to have on a new car and cleverly craft the packages to extract max revenue. The only organizations better at separating you from your money is the “Mouse” in central Florida and Cruise lines. We decided we wanted an xlt Maverick with the safety so ok Copilot$$. Then heated seats, heated mirrors, spray in liner and hitch so ok xlt lux package$$$. Then we had a short 50 degree cool down in early October so my wife insists on cranking the single zone heat all the way up to hot. Well I’m not going to fuss or bake all through the cool fall and spring weather so dual control heat, Lariat$$$$. Adaptive cruise and lane centering would be nice so yep lariat lux$$$$$. So on October 20 after test driving a Maverick we ordered one. All this extra $$$$$ is possible because Carvana offered a stupid amount of money for my 2010 Tacoma. The money is in the bank waiting for the Maverick.
You missed the major decision which can possibly open more options hybrid or ecoboost? Lol
You have so well summarized many people experience. Had it been my Maverick then the same would have happened to me. Marie was able to remind me that I'll be in the truck less than 10% of my driving time and thst it's her money so she did a good job of stopping at xlt lux but originally wanted an xl...bit you know heated seats up North
Finisher. Ima get XLT awd,rear window and co-pilot. Wish me luck.
Sounds good as a build. Good luck
Finisher! Great content
Chris I appreciate thst you watched and your comment is encouraging. Thank you for the help
On older Rangers, we could get key blanks from Ebay and program them ourselves. It was a procedure easy to do. Can we make extra keys that way in a Maverick? (dealers kill us to make extra keys)
Keys are chipped and must be programed. Sorry to bear bad news
Bird watching FTW Johny! 😀
Yeah my bird watching g is a FTW moment where I just can relax and turn the phone off.
The Maverick is a cool piece of machinery.. I don't haul anything, if I do it's not over 4000 lbs..
I like heated seat for it feels good on a sore back - not because my seats are cold
Great point Joe. Great on the seats but too hot for too long can be tough on the tushy
So can you go for two packages, such as luxury and 4k tow? Is there overlap between the tow package and off-road package that would make you not get both?
Hi Dylan. Thank you for trusting me with your question. Ues you can get multiple packages. Their is some overlap between 4k and FX4 but at the price of the FX4 package vs what it offers other than the larger Radiator and cooling fan.
I usually don't comment bad things, short story long.... is all I'm saying. People who enjoy high end stereo systems is an audiophile.
Hey Johnny, any news on builds for this month?
No new news that I have not already shared no. When I get new news I'll gladly share
Hi Johnny, great video. I live in Los Angeles so the weather is always nice. I'm extremely cheap as well, the only option/feature I'm interested is the adaptive cruise control because it's L.A. What's the cheapest trim I can get just to get adaptive cruise control? Thank you so much!
Thank ypu for trusting me with your question. You will need to go with Lariat Luxury package to get adaptive cruise control.
Thanks Johnny, don't think it's worth the added cost to move up in trim and add the lariat lux package.
I'd be interested to see how the door Keypad system has worked over the years it's been used. Do badgers like to mess with them & what happens if someone takes a hammer to it or prize it off with a chisel or something, will the owner still be able to get in the vehicle ?
Get into he vehicle yes. Look good no. If you live in an area with people hammering things of vehicles some justice needs to take place or its time to move
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews 《☆》Thanks. Ya I'm for justice too👍✔Sentences don't seem to fit the crimes nowadays & they find ways to hack everything🖖🤓🏈
Hyundai is Hun-day like Sunday. I know because I'm getting this Maverick to tow my Veloster N track car. Was going to get the Santa Cruz, but it is $10k more.
