Ford has long since been known for not painting bare steel components. Back when Henry was alive a dealer in San Francisco complained about the steering shaft oxidizing in the salt air. Ford said that the shaft was left bare allowing people to see the quality of materials used. 'Look at the beautiful rust' was pretty much the sarcastic rebuttal.
No other reviewer I’ve seen does as much info dumping as Sarah. She has a Cat 798 AC dumping info where most other reviewers only give a Tonka truck worth of info. And she makes it entertaining, like construction rodeos where large front loaders are doing wheelies.
I saw a Maverick towing a boat this weekend and at first I was like no way it can tow that, I guess with the 4K towing package it should be ok. Another great review.
You're a powerful entertainer. I'm happy you worked with Roman all those years ago. That's when you appeared on my screen and I've been here ever since.
I love my FWD Maverick XLT but I’m with you Sarah Ford needs to build a Maverick RS with a manual, I’d be all over that in a heartbeat! Love your channel Sarah!
Sarah, i appreciate the review and off road terrain test drive of the Maverick Tremor. your comparisons to Fords competitors in this segment is helpful. your channel offers so much value and attention to detail.
This is probably the first channel l have subbed after a single video. Great balance of technical, real world driving tests, without being overly dry, the opinions seem very honest and straightforward, I will be checking out more of your reviews, thanks for such a great video. Also the pointer on the lift was great, best views under a car with explanation I have seen with nothing in the way.
Great review, Sarah. Your off-road course looks fun and very challenging. Every time the little red hand flies off the stick, I laugh out loud. Keep doing what you're doing. I love it!
Thank you for specifying the tow rating. It was foolish of Ford to not put the 4k rating on the tremor package. They could have designed the cooling to work with the valances or vice versa.
Hey! I always stop everything when a new Sarah video pops up. Thank you so much for your content as I love your energy and humor and what you tackle alone is remarkable. A thought: I recently got rid of a 2016 Canyon with the diesel which sucked my wallet dry the whole time I owned it and bought a 2024 Santa Cruz. It has the turbo, a small but useful bed, tons of bells and whistles, tows 5000# effortlessly, and gets over 30 mpg on the highway. Plus the best warranty in the industry. It would be interesting for you to compare the Maverick with the Santa Cruz as they have been rated equally by at least one car review. Thanks for all you do. ❤
I've had really bad luck with Fords, otherwise the Maverick would have been at the top of my list when I was shopping for a new vehicle this last Spring. Not a fan of the el cheapo looking interior and lack of lumber support though.
I agree with you about cost and the seat. I was thinking about buying one when they started at 20,000. But I really didn’t like the fact it didn’t have lumbar support. I wish I knew then what I know now. Thanks for the great video!!
Have a 22 FX4 that I ordered from factory when they were first made available. So far, the only issue ive had with it was a bad fuse to the digital portion of the gauge cluster. Having the 4k was important, so trading to a Tremor just wasn't in the cards. Ive ripped mine offroad and the canyons near my house and it's just as fun as my project car. The base warranty is up in a couple months and then a ton and a couple aftermarket things will be added
I know a regular cab Maverick would have a microscopic profit margin, but I bet Ford would sell every one they could build to delivery fleets and contractors.
Yeah, I can’t help but believe that a FWD economical pickup with a longer bed would have a big market segment to itself for people who actually use a truck as a, well, truck. As a unibody, however, I wonder how it would be from a structural standpoint with a smaller cockpit and long open bed. The crazy part is that this Maverick doesn’t actually seem that small. Back in the day I had an early 1990’s S10 extended cab and it seems to have have been smaller and lower than this.
@@stevelovescars parking in big cities is becoming more of a hassle because most spaces are for subcompacts. I travel into Boston and this will go where a full size can't and still be able to carry a full 4x8 sheet.
I recently found your channel and i really like it. Love how on the off road trail the truck is totally two tone. Blue and brown!! See if you can review the new Colorado bison! I love mine and it doesn’t really get a lot of notice.
I’m 53 and can relate to what you said. I like simple cars. However, it’s consumers that drive the trends. ..especially the 18-25 crowd that loves tech. Everyone wants the bells and whistles. Scroll down these comments and you’ll find people here calling for a “Raptor” version of this truck. Which means more $$$
@@frankleespeaking9519 Yup. Folks like us have to buy used older vehicles. I couldn't care less about infotainments and all the driver assist tech. I use my mirrors and driving skills. One of my vehicles is an old Ranger (2004) with the 5-speed manual and it's such a pleasure to drive it and not be concerned with things beeping, bluetooth connections or anything else.
@@frankleespeaking9519 naa, the marketers make up all that BS and never do any actual market research or theyd know nobody can afford these things without a 20 year payment plan. The Raptor they want is just this with more suspension. also, for no real reason that i can see except to say they have one because 98% of all raptor owners never take them offroad let alone go offroad jumping stuff. theres literally NOTHING in these cars that make the car better. they just make consumers feel better about giving up their childs education for a daily driver.
Hi enjoyed that Sarah, I haven’t commented before, but I’ve watched quite a few videos and I find them very well done makes you think about the right things in looking at a vehicle thank you will watch again Blake
FYI on the storage bin in the bed, if you remove the bottom tray/shelf it increases the length to probably double. Most likely many remove the tray and can haul hitch receivers or chains. I think Ford wanted to insure they didn't abuse it because being plastic it can not handle the weight over 20lbs. Other than that i thought it was a nice video
Great review Sarah. Re. 17:40 "this is a super appealing type of vehicle that works well for most people", that's the reason 4x4 dual-cabs are one of the best selling vehicle segments here in Australia, with 9 brands represented (10 when Kia's new offering lands). In fact the Ford Ranger is the best selling vehicle in the country right now.
If the tremor could also get the 4k max tow package this would be a 10/10. If you only need to tow 2,000 pounds this looks like a great workhorse/fun car!
@@darekgil6813 that might have changed for next year! supposedly all mavericks will be able to option tow 4k including hybrid but still waiting for the order guide to be released should be very soon!
Independent rear suspension is a win. Is the body rigid enough? Will the transmission be durable for serious off-road use? I am guessing only time will tell.
Your reviews and your appearance, including your nails still sharp and on point. Unfortunately the msrp listed is not dealer selling price. After your ranger raptor vid, I visited Ford, 20k over msrp for retail.😮
oof, Angel, working the cameras on the highway to the danger zone of 110 degrees. Seriously, I would play nothing but Kenny Loggins if I owned a Maverick.
I enjoyed this review. The truck looks very appealing inside and out. It's off-road capabilities are very impressive. If only I needed a truck... 🤔 Maybe it's time to re-review Bronco Sport which shares the same platform but is now powered by 1.5L Ecoboost (stupid name, never liked it).
Thank you for such detail. A catagory that would be nice is comfort. If and when you have to sit in the front and or back how many miles could you do it.
I sure hope you got Angel a nice big sno cone or ice cream after filming the rally stage. Not just an ST, an AWD PHEV version with AC outlets in the bed for work and fun.
The hardest working content creator ever! Why this is the greatest channel on TH-cam 🙂♥️

LOL go outside plenty of fit women
I would have to agree with you, Sarah's reviews are entertaining and a lot more informative than any other reviewer I know of.
Once again Sarah throws C&D, Motortrend and Automobile magazine under the bus with her excellent reviews. Just keep on being Sarah, Sarah!
Providing information I would never know to look for, for example, why towing is only 2k. Thank you, Sarah, for the work you do on these videos.
Ford has long since been known for not painting bare steel components. Back when Henry was alive a dealer in San Francisco complained about the steering shaft oxidizing in the salt air.

1 2 3 or 6?
Kevin bacon approved.

My neighbor has a maverick and tows a boat bigger then it. I see mavericks towing more things then full size trucks.
You're a powerful entertainer. I'm happy you worked with Roman all those years ago. That's when you appeared on my screen and I've been here ever since.
Same here, I first saw Sarah on TFL years ago.
@@gregholloway2656 I need to know when so I can watch these.
Sarah has the best humor. 😂
I would be completely onboard with the maverick if it came in a single-cab version (RIP 90's - 2000's Ranger)
2:50 that has to be the finest PFFFT sound I have ever heard. Tone was even, oscillation was perfect. It was bassy...
Bravo!
I love my FWD Maverick XLT but I’m with you Sarah Ford needs to build a Maverick RS with a manual, I’d be all over that in a heartbeat! Love your channel Sarah!
Id trade my f150 for that in a heartbeat
Great review Sarah
Saw the shutters open! My hybrid g ets 49.9 mpg . What a ride 👏
Can I just say, by far and away, the best transitions on YT. Love the 90's video game/Best Motoring vibes!

Great review, Sarah. Your off-road course looks fun and very challenging. Every time the little red hand flies off the stick, I laugh out loud. Keep doing what you're doing. I love it!
I have the 2024 Maverick XLT Tremor in black. I love it. There are already after market parts to replace the hairy cardboard underneath.
Wow -- 9.7 on the Penguin score. Ford should put that on the window stickers. "Endorsed by Sarah." 🙂
Agreed, but Sarah should get a percentage on each sale.
I’m really enjoying my 22 XLT Maverick! Great review Sarah, it’s always nice seeing a local doing great things!
My favorite TH-camr is Bob the pointer.
Thank you for specifying the tow rating. It was foolish of Ford to not put the 4k rating on the tremor package. They could have designed the cooling to work with the valances or vice versa.
Softer suspension
I absolutely love your reviews. I only found this channel recently, but damn Sarah, you rock! Quickly becoming one of my favorite cartubers to watch
Love the rally shots. How do you manage to get this location all to yourself for filming? Time of day? Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍
Middle of nowhere

So glad you reviewing this truck!
My 2022 Maverick died on the freeway at 75mph after 40k miles and too many recalls. I'm lucky to be alive. Best ride I ever had...until it wasn't.
I've had really bad luck with Fords, otherwise the Maverick would have been at the top of my list when I was shopping for a new vehicle this last Spring. Not a fan of the el cheapo looking interior and lack of lumber support though.
was it a hybrid? ecoboost? tremor?
As always, FUN, informative and an overall joy to watch. Crazy cute outfit! Love the channel!

Thank you for the mariachi & mexican style music in the background!! loved it :D
Very nice driving well done Sarah's school of driving
Fantastic review! Your dedication and hard work is truly inspiring! 🎉🎉🎉
That outfit you’re wearing is sending out Snow White vibes! Love your reviews.
Love it! And still love my 2022 Maverick XL AWD, which I've had almost two years.
A small note on the phone charging cord, there is a pocket in the bottom that allows you to put the phone vertical with the cord still plugged in.
Most fun review I've watched so far. Great work !
Your reviews are very informative and fun! Keep up the great work!
System of a Down rocks Sarah. And so does this car review. That Maverick really moves off road :0
I"M JUST SITTING
IN MY MAVERICK
WAITING FOR THE PHEV OPTION!!!
Love these reviews, watching 4am
Fantastic matching the vehicle in this video, Sarah. The blue and yellow looks great on the truck and you!

oh archie
I like this little truck. There’s nothing quite as funny as the thud of a flung finger, hitting the floor. Well, the look on Sarah’s face anyway. 😂
This thing needs to be rear bias, such a cool little truck, thank you Sarah.
Love your videos 🖤
Thank you.
I appreciate you!
9.7 wow, that is a high score......
Great Video Sarah!
Sarah's sign-language interpretation for "Suspension Articulation" should be adopted into the formal lexicon.
Hi enjoyed that Sarah, I haven’t commented before, but I’ve watched quite a few videos and I find them very well done makes you think about the right things in looking at a vehicle thank you will watch again Blake
👏👏👏 Excellent review 😃😃🫂
You are somebody I could love for ever doll for what you do
2:52 My favorite moment ever on TH-cam!

Of course, but most of those are body-on-frame unlike the Maverick
Look at all of the rust areas under such a "new" truck!
Great review Sarah. Love the choice of background music towards the end, kinda flamenco-ish.
It does need more competition! It's time for a new Baja to hit the market.
Excellent review. I hope to have your off roading skills one day. I have a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. Your review of it was amazing.
Nice to see you didn’t say anything about a no tailgate assist. If you need some assistance with a light tailgate…. A minivan may suit your needs.
YO, what is your phone called? saras mind co… mind controlling device?😂 you’re the best!
Yep
If the tremor could also get the 4k max tow package this would be a 10/10. If you only need to tow 2,000 pounds this looks like a great workhorse/fun car!
Yea that's a big letdown

Hey Sarah, couldn’t agree more great little truck especially for the money your reviews are the best🐧🐧🐧👍
I like too see the storage under the rear seats and bed lengths in truck reviews.
13:54 that little cubby has a false floor u remove it and it doubles in size.
Independent rear suspension is a win. Is the body rigid enough? Will the transmission be durable for serious off-road use? I am guessing only time will tell.
We DEFINITELY need a Maverick Raptor and Raptor R
Great review as always, Sarah 👌
Overcooking the Angel food cake in the 110F temps... RIP
Currently watching Sarah at work while I’m on break. Hello from Robert Mondavi Woodbridge where somehow I logistically get parts ordered….
Thank you Sarah.
That's cool a mini ranger turbo, with 4 doors, the flex, with a pop up camper is like the ghost busters vehicle
Needs to install 2.5 liter engine on maverick Tremor
SARAH!!!!!
I like the two tone bule/desert sand color after that rally 🤣
Excellent
Lovely Sarah
Great new graphics

👍👍👍👍👍
Best reviews as always
that outfit will go amazing with the black high heels sandals you wear in a previous video
Damn, I'm glad I stumbled across your review. Very informative and professional. I also love the pointer stick. Very well done
oof, Angel, working the cameras on the highway to the danger zone of 110 degrees.
Seriously, I would play nothing but Kenny Loggins if I owned a Maverick.
I like the blue-beige fade paintjob
Maverick for the win!
There is a cable recess for your phone's cable on the passenger side stand.
Hey Sarah. Cool review 👍

110 degrees I can't imagine. Living in the upper Midwest it could get up to 85 next Monday. Probably have to turn on the home air conditioning.
Thank you for such detail. A catagory that would be nice is comfort. If and when you have to sit in the front and or back how many miles could you do it.

No, we’re not 5. lol
Nice mustard skirt😂❤🦦
Come on Ford, give Sarah a Mustang Dark Horse with a six speed to review!
10/10 phone name 🤣
I just went an bought the ST explorer Saturday 😊
