    I agree it’s the perfect daily when equipped with the hybrid engine.

    It’s the people that pretend they have a 4x4 with the shitty AWD that ruin it.

      True. No reason to get the turbo over a ranger. Similar mileage and price tag since the turbo costs a good few thousand more than the hybrid, and the ranger is more capable.

        I always think how good a PHEV version (of any car) would be, but then I start to think of all the drawbacks it would have over a full BEV like most likely pitiful electric range with a tiny battery (you want 50 miles? Okay, here's 25 lol), slow acceleration, way more complexity, and to top it all off it's not like you're saving any money buying a PHEV over a BEV. The Toyota Rav4 Prime is just as expensive as all the BEV competition. I'd just say frick it and buy a BEV.

          PHEV has the major advantage of being able to do the average daily commute work and back on pure electric power while still retaining an ICE engine for longer drives. It’s the perfect middle ground for most people. I would buy an electric vehicle if I could get one with 400miles of range for about $35k but that doesn’t exist and I don’t really want to fully invest in a fully electric car while ranges are still low and much better battery tech is already on the horizon. I would be able to do 80% of my driving on pure electric power if I had a PHEV with a 40 mile range. I would probably only need to fill the tank once every few months unless I’m heading up north to my cabin where an electric vehicle doesn’t have the range to get too. If ford can release an AWD PHEV maverick and keep the price sub $40k they will sell them as fast as they can make the.

            The use case for a PHEV over a BEV is so slim for the average person. The only time a PHEV is better than a BEV is for long trips and even then there's some nuance to that. One could make the argument that a BEV is better for the occasional road trip since using fast charging stations is still cheaper than gas. The only use case I can think where a PHEV would be a clear winner over a BEV is if you also needed to tow when going on those long trips as towing range on a BEV is still unacceptably low, imo, and charging station placement isn't yet optimized for towing. If you fit that niche then a PHEV might be for you. I just don't think they're necessary for most people.

            The average person drives something like 40 miles a day. Unless someone is driving hundreds of miles on a regular basis (which most people don't), a BEV will work just fine and will be superior than a PHEV in nearly every way.

        Lightning trucks would be like toyota trucks if they were in the American rust belt. Put either unibody frame on the lift and it may crumple (metal tear) due to cascade failure of seam welds due corrosion.

        Mine are ancient too but I carefully avoided some models (and all their cars though Panther platforms at least make good truck engine donors).
        Skipped everything between my dentsides and the 1997-2003 F150 because rust and electrical issues were common even outside the rust belt and life is good. Some of the old Rangers were decent but I'll give Maverick five or so years like I do everything else. I'd be insane to buy one since the price will keep my existing fleet on the road for a very long time. Spending 20whatever grand plus state taxes and insurance is fine for someone who doesn't wrench and has no current truck so they should do that.

            Like basically every other car on the market, the base model is going to outsell the higher end trims. The maverick isn't any different and you're just making shit up as the justification for these made up sales figures you can't even source.

            Can your Civic take a washing machine home? Can you get to the good camping or hiking spots with your Civic? Sedans and mutated hatchbacks are fricking useless.

            Where the shit do you live? You know the average selling price of a truck of a truck in North America is over $50k right? Do you think those are base models? Look at RAV4's for an example. The vast majority are AWD and mostly Limited's or fairly loaded mid specs. I get a sneaking suspicion you live in a shithole and you're surrounded by Mexicans.

If you get a subawu, get the crossdrek sport, its a far more practical car that you can take on less than perfect pavement, and aside from 70+ mph runs, its more responsive and gets better mpg while hauling more.

            If you do like to haul ass, some 2wd sports car is better, cheaper and more fun. The awd on the wrx is pointless cause it has no ground clearence and it will get stuck on snowy mountain drives

            CC is a fricking non-issue.

            oh yea so is my civic.
            >a sports car is the exact opposite
            yea a sports car is the opposite. Having ultra stiff suspension is the opposite of what you want in a comfy daily which is why modern corvettes and mustangs come so well kitted with ultra plush leather and shit.

            >Look up the sales numbers for any vehicle available with both FWD and AWD. Nobody is buying FWD's.
            Like basically every other car on the market, the base model is going to outsell the higher end trims. The maverick isn't any different and you're just making shit up as the justification for these made up sales figures you can't even source.

            ok boomer. Every frickin dealer is still charging way over MSRP for shit. I'd rather order a truck, get exactly what I want in the color I want and NOT pay the absolutely fricked dealer markup scam.

      For the same price as a loaded Maverick you can get a Xcab 4wd 1/2 ton with steelies and rubber floors. Nobody but Mexican landscapers wants to drive that shit.

        Yeah no truck pricing doesn't work like that. Manufacturers would never frick up their bread and butter half ton sales like that. Half tons always have really good lease deals. The dealers here are offering Lariat F-150's here for $50/mo more than a Lariat Mav.

          Yeah, I'm not making 3 years of payments so I can just give it back at the end. Leasing is stupid unless you buy a new car every 3 years. I keep my shit 20+.

            I bought a 4x4 Ranger last year. Don't know why never use it. I got by for 20 years with an RWD 94 with snow tires.

            I would wager that most of the truck / SUV owners I know have never even used 4x4. Maybe once a year while going to the same lake their neighbor takes their stock HRV to. My sister has a 4Runner, and she isn't even slightly curious about what the extra shifter does. Her transfer case has LITERALLY never been used. People like her are a larger driver demographic than we'd like to admit. Hardly anyone is crawling around on trails scratching their $60,000 pavement boss.

            The only place 4x4 is desirable is when you're buying a 10-15 year old shit kicked trail toy. I have an '06 Ranger, and it's fun as frick off road. But I would never take a new one down those trails. It would be pinstriped to hell before the first obstacle, and all the safety sensors would be having an autistic conniption fit. Better off in an old beater that you don't mind slamming into rocks and stumps and fixing with a rattle can.

            The Maverick is a perfect truck for modern owners, but they're too fragile to admit it.

            You know this thing called winter exists right?Most people with 4x4 use it even if they don't know what it is because most modern transfer cases default to the 4x4 auto setting which kicks it into 4hi when excessive wheelslip is detected. Once you've driven a 4x4 or AWD vehicle in the winter it's hard to go back to a FWD or RWD. Most people never do. Yes both have the same tires...

            I live on a literal ski hill in a resort town. Yes, I know about winter, and I disagree with you. I stay in 2wd most of the winter because our plows do a great job and I have studded tires. Sometimes I have to shift into 4x4 to get in and out of my shitty alleyway that doesn't get salted, or if I want to go somewhere remote that doesn't get cleared often. But it's not a big deal and most people do fine with FWD and winter tires. Maybe if your town's infrastructure is bad, 4x4 matters more.

            My wife's Subaru is more fun to drive in the winter than my truck, anyway. No axle hop when turning on and off of mixed surfaces onto dry pavement in parking lots and shit. I won't comment on 4auto systems because I have no experience with it.

    I drove one a month ago. Here were my thoughts...

    Drives awesome, speeds up quick, stops quick and it's a very smooth ride. Ford did a great job with the interior, it's so classy and sporty, the leather feels great. Then there are the looks, it's sporty and fresh in person. That's where the positives stop. The back seats are just like the back seats of a Mustang, so small that it's really just a last resort. You wouldn't want to be back there for more than like a 20 minute ride. I have a 5 year old, and the thought of her being pinned back there on the way to school didn't seem appealing. Also like others have said the bed in the back looks and feels about half the size of a regular bed.

    Then there's the big issue. It's a Ford. I drove a Ford for 10 years. It leaked water when it rained, they used cheap spark plugs that snapped in two during a tune-up, and once I was parking on a hill and when I went to pull the e-brake, the cable snapped. Not one of these issues did Ford cover under warranty. On the bad spark plugs Ford created their own removal tool for their dealers to use but did not compensate the Ford owners. Ford does not car at all about their customers, and it's worse than ever. One of my friends bought a 2015 Explorer and at 75k miles the transmission died. Another friend of mine has a 2019 Ford Ranger, he has 30k miles and he said the transmission is already doing weird things during shifting.

    I went with the Honda Ridgeline and that was the right call.

      Ridgeline is the right call for the average man. Smooth riding, comfortable truck. The Maverick beats it on efficiency and price and that's more important for a poorgay like me. There's no reason for a man to drive a modern commuter car with the maverick out that's similarly equipped unless you really hate Fords.

      Wish you could find them though. I've only seen one in the real world, last week.

      >Why are mutts like this?
      Advertising/Marketing mutts strive to degrade the meaning of anything into a relativist blank slate. Americans are deeply infatuated with the idea with owning a truck, so making a car-based ute and calling it a truck will make it print more money than the Federal Reserve.

      They should be shot for these transgressions, as these are the same tactics that have made the natural ways of life into a set of dirty, wrongthink words.
