That is because your Maverick came with a different package. Mine is a base xl model and as a result doesn’t come with some of those extras. The xlts and lariats come from the factory with a hitch mount and the necessary wiring:)
do not close your door with the keys in at unless you defeat the automatic feature because you will be locked out of your truck I made that mistake and had to call a lock smith
When I go over speed bumps , noticed a loud clacking underneath of my maverick. Don't know if it's the exhaust pipe slightly bouncing because of the hard rubber hanger towards the back or what. Anyone else experiencing this?
Check behind your back seat, pull it down and there will be metal pieces that can vibrate when going over large bumps. Put some fome between them or something. I think that is what you might be hearing? Guy on yt had the same issue and found that. Hope this helps
Generally trucks will have their tires filled to a higher pressure due to the potentially Of carrying load. This was stock from the factory/dealership. I had made no previous adjustments to the pressure. About a year after purchasing the Maverick and the tire pressure is still in that 38psi range. Running great and loving it. I will make a 1 year update about the pros and cons :)
I'm getting lariat I wanted to get the barebones XL but it doesn't come with cruise control I wasn't gonna get the XLT but I was like f*** it I'm gonna get the larriette
Awesome honest review... I have a XLT, 2.0 Eco, FX4, 4K tow on order.. I have never seen one in person! Videos like yours make me feel confident in my purchace.. The wait tho!! I was schulded for the week of 3/28 got pushed back to the week of 4/16....
I appreciate the kind words brotha! I would have gone with an xlt as well but I didn’t special order anything. It was either this or a lariat but for me personally, the lariat defeats the purpose of the maverick being an affordable practical truck. (It is sweet though). I think you’re going to love your xlt! Stay in touch when you get it. Would love to hear about how you like it!
Yeah the demand is outrageous and with current inflammatory markets, you can see the result. It’s unfortunate because it’s a great vehicle when at that 20k msrp, but asking 40k+ for an xl or xlt is wrong. Thank you for the comment!
No not yet, I know some people that have one on order so hopefully in due time I will get a chance! I'll report back to ya! I'm ready to take it on adventures!
Cylinder deactivation during idle is not "you get your money worth". It wears your engine and the starter out faster. Think about it. Engine stop/start is why highway vehicles are in much better condition than cars have been only driven in short distances. It is pretty sad to see this feature getting promoted.
I do know what you mean with the contrasting colors with the white paint and black bumper. The government vehicles where I live all are white so I’m actually glad I don’t have a white Maverick haha. Thanks for the comment James
Radio sounds awful & tinny & no HD Radio or even SiriusXM Satellite Radio as I just got one same one as you but mine has the 2.5L Hybrid. There is no aftermarket radio that fits it now but I changed my speakers & put a set of JBL in the doors, pillars & dash & sounds 50x better as the stock speakers had a tiny magnet & no wonder why it sounded bad. I had to go 2 states away to get mine. I paid 20k+ my local taxes & transferred my plate from my old truck. I am going to get a Rhino Lining put in next week. Only downfall I see is it was made in Mexico & wont last as poor quality control there so only time will tell on this one.
Great info you’re dropping here! Coming from an old ranger even the stock speakers were an upgrade for me, however I can see your point. I have a jbl portable speaker and it’s fantastic so I would expect the same with car speakers. Time will tell for sure. Hoping we get great mileage and longevity out of this little truck. Thanks for the great feedback 🙌
my Mavrick came with the wiring installed for the trailer hitch connection it is mounted in the back bumper

Use your Ford app and you can unlock the car regardless of where your keys are :)
How is the Transmission holding up? Any issues?
I don’t want to jinx it but so far so good! I’ve yet to feel like it’s slipping a gear or anything.
Almost 20k miles. I will be doing an update video on another 2 weeks

I haven’t experienced that issue. Have you looked at Maverick forums online to see if that’s a common thing?

Tires pressure monitoring on your App showing 42. Is that kind of high?

Great video my guy! I'm really glad to see you are enjoying your maverick. 'Preciate the wisdom.
Thank you Douglas! It’s a kick ass vehicle so far! I will post some update videos as time goes on!:)
Great review Mitch! 👍🏽
Thank you for the kind words Anna! Glad you enjoyed it!

You did a great job on the Cometary 👍
Thank you Mike! Was just being honest trying to relay accurate info on what I thought about the vehicle. Appreciate the kind words
Starts at 20k, but sells for 45k used. 🤣🤣

nice truck! Have you gotten to drive the xlt? all the mavericks looks sweet
No not yet, I know some people that have one on order so hopefully in due time I will get a chance! I'll report back to ya! I'm ready to take it on adventures!
Have you thought about a leveling kit? Or larger tires?
Still waiting for by CG hybrid XL😔
Yes I have! I want to burn through these tires first then I’ll reassess what I want to do to it!:)
I have never seen a 19mph speed limit. 2:14
Yeah it’s a strange one! Only place I ever have
Have a little patience and you wntve to pay sticker price.
Sorry auto correct. You won't have to pay sticker

teetee tee the stop and start thing has been around for at least 5 years and I have never heard of any common issue with starter problems.
The white base model actually looks better because of the breakup of colors as this looks like a pest control vehicle.

@@LFTLivefortoday I had a 2011 Ranger & a 2000 Chevy S-10 pick up before.
I have a 92 VW that I bought in 98, it has 198k. Made very well in Puebla, Mexico.
