Raptor Sperm.. // 2023 Ford Maverick Tremor Review

[@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403]

Just about every car video gives you basic stuff you can google. Nobody out there does what Sarah does. Great video as always.

[@aj_aka_alan]

I laughed out loud on two of her comments. "Ford accidentally developed something remarkable", and "Subaru STI with a pickup bed". You're not getting that from Car & Driver or Autoweek.

[@ThePhotographyHobbyist]

I noticed the same thing today while trying to research this truck. I'm getting a lot more detail here!

[@frankbodenschatz173]

Trannie cant handle the torque of the engine? Another ford fail.

[@Primus54]

At first I didn’t think Sarah was liking this… boy did THAT change in the desert! Huge shoutout for the drone footage… production quality keeps growing & growing. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍

[@occumedge4031]

Thank You Sarah!!

[@InsideOfMyOwnMind]

Yeah, I was about to come up here and say That was embarrassing, but then they redeemed themselves.

[@GARRYLREID]

Well i think you only look at power and fun,..i want to know how far they get before a break down,people are spendind money on Chinese built crap..mostly parts!

[@Marz78963]

Finally someone put the lil Maverick thru it's paces. I have been debating between the Maverick Lariat with the Tremor package or a Nissan Frontier Pro-4x. And after watching both of Sarah's videos reviewing both vehicles I think I am sold on the Maverick. Looks like it'll be perfect for road trips (fuel economy), lawn/garden home supplies from Home Depot / Lowes and some light off roading to campsites / kayaking / hiking trail heads etc. Makes a great jack of all trades type of truck.

[@davidalexispr]

Did you got it? I got mine after this video and boy I love this little beast!

[@stw2186]

Did you haul a kayak yet?

[@Talenvar]

The barcode gives you a 2022 Ford Maverick Video Library checking out features of that truck. Great video as always Sarah, thank you for all you do :)

[@tomthomsen]

This is the first of your videos I’ve seen, you’ve got a new fan! I love your sense of humor and like how you express your negative opinions.

[@cascadianone]

Would love to see you rip around the desert with the 2025 Mav Tremor! See if they improved anything else with it!

[@WardSpose]

Too bad my local dealer put a 30k markup on it. Used Tacoma thank you. Ford dealerships are wrecking the brand.

[@DriveFastLookGood]

You should write a letter to Ford, explaining one of their dealers cost them your business.

[@LetsBHonest]

What's the name of your local dealer?

[@raymondmiller2780]

A cursory search via “cars” shows most available Mavericks have a ridiculous $10,000 markup!

[@Zzus321]

Inventory is getting better don't buy anything yet

[@rvail136]

Have the same problem in Coastal GA

[@Yammie_Moto671]

Just picked up a 2024 Tremor a couple of days ago. Still breaking in the truck but I'm loving it so far. Everything I need in a daily and the truck bed comes in handy. Can't wait to take this off-road here in the Desert.

[@802Garage]

LOL Sarah getting ideas about making her Focus AWD with a Maverick system is the energy I like.

[@Ottawa9one9]

I found you a few weeks ago when I watched your previous Maverick review. Dozens of your videos later we come full circle to another Maverick review. You do an amazing job balancing technical info and fun, all wrapped up in great production. You're awesome.

[@CBR919R]

Pay close attention for her innuendos. They can be very funny. 😀

[@Ottawa9one9]

@@CBR919R They sure are! BTW - I'm sure you caught the resemblance in our user names. Former CB919 and CBR954R owner here.

Very professional Sarah, you covered it all in Style, great rundown of the stats.

[@PezDSpencer604]

Very entertaining truck review, love it. I agree they need to make one of these with stick shift.

[@mowcowbell]

Unfortunately, no one would buy a stick.

[@azcodemonkey]

Glad to see they're using the ST platform for something. Cool review. Thanks, Sarah.

[@ronmershon9717]

I'm glad you did this review. I've been looking to buy one and your honest opinion makes it easier to think about.

[@frh-freerangehuman]

Great review. I love that engine in my bronco sport badlands. So many similarities between the two. Super fun to drive.

[@modelglue]

I'm really appreciative of your consistency in posting videos. I get the need to relax with some content and a bowl of ice cream and it just makes everything better for a bit.

[@Scout4x]

I like the new drone work while going up and down the steep hill.

[@danasampson818]

Mostest funnest review of the Maverick Tremor I have seen yet.

[@Mayjay87]

The bed QR code links you to all the DIY stuff/instructions you can accessorize the bed with.

[@WalterA-b3d]

Another outstanding review. Thank you for all the work that goes into your vehicle reviews. They are enjoyable and informative.

[@rolexr]

This little truck is really awesome !!!

[@larrypeeples-yk1rg]

I like this model of tremor maverick very much. I want one brand new all options, in the grey.

[@fordmaverickmaniac]

Larry, if you get a Lariat, the T appearance pack gets you carb gray roof, side mirrors, and door handles. Not many builds will have this sweet look. Ask any questions on my channel.

[@larrypeeples-yk1rg]

@@fordmaverickmaniac ty for the reply, these new trucks are awesome for the price!

[@PK15306]

I'll make a small wager that the tremor is going to be missing a few focus rally parts!😄

[@nereusilveira6201]

That's a great car, but I like my old 1977 Ford Maverick too. Congratulations on the channel and success to you Sarah. A hug directly from Brazil.

[@jaykaywinchester6040]

Thank you for your attention to details like the undercarriage inspection that gives us a real look at skid plates. It's remarkably hard to find in reviews.

[@bsmirnov]

That QR-code took me to 2023 Ford Maverick web page on Ford's website. (but I'm in Canada)

[@robertwieczorek5838]

I like when the finger pointer goes in and out of things

[@stucook8622]

Thanks Sarah and thanks to the editing department 🐧

[@mostcom]

Last Friday at the GM dealer up the block a used WRX STI appeared in the premier spot in the lot. Around here they are rare and never in a lot for sale. I think my new favorite color for one is dark silver. Yea, first time seeing one that wasn't blue, black or white. I see that and I see Sarah ripping down the block. Someone was having fun doing a review. Nice to see.

[@timkoryciak5622]

I really enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work Sarah I

[@christianbolt5761]

I’ve seen it in blue. Nice looking truck. Much better than the Maverick of the 1970s I grew up with.

[@rocketscientist007]

The F150 also has an AGM battery. This is likely due to the advanced BMS (Battery Maintenance System) which allows the battery to get to a low state of charge & still start the engine. FordTech Makuloco just did a video on this feature. I don't like these engines without port injection in addition to the DI. It will be more expensive maintenance to keep the valves clean.

[@fishflash1]

The rear double clutch differential is different. Are they difficult to service? The engine/turbo combo might benefit from a catch can. I enjoy the real time comments when you did the off-road rally run. Enjoyable and super informative review.

[@SarahnTuned]

Please don’t ask me if something is difficult to service, I think pulling an engine is quick and easy. 😂

[@fishflash1]

@@SarahnTuned Haha. I should know better after years of subscribing!!

[@MarcosCodas]

The Ford Maverick name was used here in South America for a 4-door and 2-door kinda-Mustang-but-not-really in the 70s. Still very desirable.

[@jamesbateman5264]

Your verbiage is awesome and funny. 😁

[@coreyfrancis421]

Came to the same conclusion recently on the wrx cross shop. Honestly leaning toward the Mav.

[@SarahnTuned]

Yeah, and just like a WRX the transmission is the limiting factor to big power 😂

[@jimcabezola3051]

Absolutely fantastic video and drone footage quality! I really liked all the sand racing footage; it was FUN to watch!

[@robsolf]

The 2.0l is pretty solid. I had one in an Escape. They should have stuck with the 6 speed from that, too; it didn't seem to have any issues handling the tq.

[@DriveFastLookGood]

Sarah, is your grandmother’s Ranger and the Maverick similar in size and capability?

[@betteheadbettehead4800]

I'd much prefer the GRanger

[@SarahnTuned]

Pretty similar size, Ranger is noticeably taller though.

[@WrenchingOnCars]

Yes!!! The seat bolster test. It makes the review.

[@paulwoodman5131]

Didn't really expect that. 😂. Cool That you found a fun new mini-truck. 🎉

[@michaelblacktree]

I agree, the gunmetal and "matte mustard" looks cool. IMO it would be even better with a darker body color.

[@JK-ns5dr]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@chriscon8463]

That’s a cool little truck! Very fun review, Sarah!

[@YomiDave]

Great review, would be awesome to do a full compare against the Ranger we get in Australia!

[@patrickbruijsten2831]

The drone show was a quality surprise. Thanks for the review Sarah!

[@HammerPowered]

These Mavericks are neat little trucks that fill a market void. Mini-truckers are all about them. Just wish they were more available and dealers weren't being ass pains about pricing.

[@chitterlingsrtasty]

Pricing is better it seems a year later. Was able to secure a little under msrp and free shipping to my house.

[@ross7684]

I think the Maverick is all sold out for 2023...going to have to get your 2024 order in. Fortunatelyt Toyota has intorduced the Stout. Can't wait for Sarah to get her hands on one of those to compare it to the Maverick.

[@fordmaverickmaniac]

Ross, now that millions more know about the Mav, my bet is 2024MY sells out in 1 day, not one week like last time. Ask any questions on my channel.

[@austin4809]

I absolutely love your car reviews. Funny and educational!!!

[@Hobbies4Hire]

Great job on the video Sarah! Thanks for making it.

[@celestinoybarra3057]

This was a surprise, never really understood the thought behind the Maverick. Now I get it, a rally car with a bed. Oh have fun looking for used Maverick rear ends for the focus.

[@fordmaverickmaniac]

Even the regular Mav AWD I show on my channel is like a little race truck.

[@susiemartinez8983]

I may seriously consider this as a future purchase.

[@aleksevolutionary1677]

the best reviewer.it's always interesting what's under the bottom and not the gadgets

[@johnmbell4642]

Hey Sarah, really enjoy this one especially when you have so much fun filming it. So happy the little guys living up to the tremor name definitely a great alternative like you were saying. Love the color accents I think that ties back into the color palette of the original movie which is cool have a great one as always🐧🐧🐧👍

[@JoeEngineer]

Looks like the Maverick T can boogie. Thanks for this!

[@gilbertwashburn7095]

At first I thought it was a turd but after you took it out and Road tested it it changed my mind it's really cool have a great day

[@kettlebellcarnivore-vr5cw]

This is the Maverick I want! More expensive here in Canada, though. I am totally stoked that you can swing one around so easily. Great review!

[@rvail136]

I love the pointy finger thing!

[@Parallax62]

oh heck yeah I agree 100% on a 2.3 Eco-Boost RS equip that, I may be in the market for one. Great idea!

[@Wooley689]

The funnel you found is to use for a fuel can. It is designed to use because a regular funnel and gas can spout will not work and will get stuck in the filler door. All Mustangs come with them as well.

[@jsirotzki]

Gray roots! That's my thing though..

[@gbgary]

mud flaps are for paint protection but mostly for the people driving behind you...rocks and gravel.

[@arthurdardalis]

Sarah is just the business, clever, witty, informative, best auto channel. Cannot understand why Doug DeMuro has 4 million followers

[@roberthartmann668]

❤ I love your car reviews one more time great job🎉

[@DeadBen.]

I'd probably buy one of these today if I could find one. Think it would pair nicely with my Mach 1...which is sadly parked during the long MN winters.

[@bobmiller7426]

Perhaps you should order some Maverick “replacement parts” to make a all wheel drive Focus?

Another one of your great reviews Sarah! You are very objective and thorough. Even when you like the car, you show us the crappy mud flaps, hairy cardboard and everything underneath that others do not show us!

[@russellgentile4719]

Sarah great review as always! Thank you. I am a 2022 Maverick XLT Hybrid owner and love it. Best bang for the buck out there and incredible fuel mileage.

[@fordmaverickmaniac]

Russell, you should do some videos I will sub! I show my Mav hybrid in alto blue on my channel.

[@DemopVWgarage]

you have a big fan base in Australia cause you say Aluminum proper :)

[@paulfisher4660]

the difference between metric and imperial (thats what we called it in school) is that metric cannot resolve odd values. so if you chop something in thirds, like a hotdog, squirrel or jelly donut, with metric you get 3.33333333..... whereas imperial you get an exact equal mess of squirrel innards, i.e. 1/3 so no recurring. now if you and two friends went and bought jelly donuts (or an un-suspecting squirrel) you could round up your metric part to 0.4 and give your other two friends slightly less jelly by short changing them to 0.3 each.

[@azarahwagner2749]

I would not buy any current day Fords . Overpriced junk now and too many call backs . I would not even lease one . Always love to see you having fun though.

[@mostcom]

I today's KZbin recent uploaded list was a video from the local television station news dept. with an announcement from Ford about a vehicle recall notice. After clicking on the blank grey thumbnail the video unavailable notice appeared. Guess they didn't get the memo to ixnay the orystay till after they uploaded. The other 5 stations... not a peep.

have to say i am a fan of the yellow pointy hand stick

[@fordmaverickmaniac]

JK, for some reason the T is not offered in carbonized gray like the AWD I show on my channel. The avalanche gray on this review is only available on the Tremor.

[@JK-ns5dr]

@@fordmaverickmaniac I love the orange. It looks like it's not available on the Tremor either.

[@jana3]

😊thank you for such a detailed review. I'll be ordering my tremor

[@fat_biker]

I like that this is a realistic size for roads in the rest of the world, so it might come to the UK one day. If you've ever seen an F150 on UK roads, you'll realise why they never sold them here...

[@SarahnTuned]

Yeah, this would work well over there. I had a U.S. spec 4x4 2011 Tacoma with me in Germany and that was about the max of practicality size wise for small village roads.

[@graumail]

So what you’re saying is my Tundra will NOT fit 😂 Our house has a carport & without the mirrors folded in the damn thing doesnt fit 😂

[@fordmaverickmaniac]

[@sinistergates6630]

Ford needs to make a rallie trim, as is the awd is front bias. If they could make it a little more rear bias, a little more aggressively tuned and added some paddle shifters that would be amazing.

[@user-dx8zh5ql2l]

Love the yellow hand

[@studiotom]

As always, you rock Sarah! Awesome review, I’m impressed with what you were able to reveal about that Maverick, and what you were able to make it do.

Now if only Subaru can make a Brumby (Brat) ute using the WRX platform & engine, I'd buy that.

[@methere27]

just for a Cliff Claven moment... that funnel is if you run out of gas you push that thru the capless gas cap so you can fill with a jerry can

[@Harry-Cardboard]

Ah, that makes sense. Cheers, mate.

[@archmagexiv]

Thank you Sarah!

[@kevinlyon9501]

Based on a Focus platform, interesting shame we don't get those in the UK. So how did the measuring of the rear diff turn out sounded like there was some similarities. Between old Focus and the Tremor?

[@MrJdubbya36]

I've always had smaller trucks, Rangers mostly and a Frontier. I like the size. But I bought a Titan to be able to tow a trailer. If I didn't want to get a trailer and tow more than 2k lbs, I'd look at one of these. I think they've done pretty well with these. I don't like Fords big truck going to small turbos but it makes sense in this little rig.
