Nice to see a budget-friendly vehicle designed to be really functional. Most others tend to focus on wowing people with a fancy entertainment center and many screens. I think the Maverick will be a home run for Ford. They would sell even more if the hybrid could be had with AWD.

Ford may have may have given up on the sedan marketplace but there's no question that they know how to design, build, and sell trucks! The Maverick's most obvious competitor, the Hyundai Santa Cruz, may be an appealing vehicle for consumers wanting an open bed version of a compact SUV but even Hyundai recoils from labelling it a "truck." They call the Santa Cruz is a "Sports Activity Vehicle, an SAV. Not so from Ford. No, Sir-ee. The Maverick wears its "truck" label proudly. From a sales standpoint, the Maverick is a brilliant vehicle. Every trim level is available with a 2.5L hybrid engine or a 2.0L turbo . MSRPs begin at $20K and top out in the low $30K neighborhood. And though it's not often mentioned individual consumers aren't the only source of revenue. The Maverick will sell like hotcakes to fleets, large and small. For businesses that need economical vehicles for local missions involving cargo, the hybrid versions of the Maverick are a godsend. Need to deliver drywall to a construction site? No need to use a full size F150. The hybrid Maverick can do the job at a fraction of the cost.

When I first saw the Maverick my first thought was city fleets. I see City owned trucks all the time, everywhere I go. Suddenly there's a small truck that gets excellent gas mileage, and still offers loads of utility? I wouldn't be surprised if the Maverick dominated the fleet market in the near future. But I was also surprised how much I liked it myself when I got the chance to sit in one. It felt really livable.

Another DIY friendly aspect of this truck is Ford released the FITS geometry to the hobby 3D printing community so there are tons of free designs on the various 3D model repositories across the internet. It was actually this act that brought the Maverick to my attention. I'm in the market for a new vehicle (specifically looking for a hybrid) and am now interested in the Maverick. Unfortunately for me the demand so out stripped availability that Ford stopped taking new custom orders for the hybrids back in November and I only started looking at cars in the past month... I'll have to wait for the '23 model year to customize my own (will be looking to build something similar to the XLT Luxe w/ CoPilot360 and a few other dealer installed options for under $30k).

I traded my Silverado for it because I just don't need a truck that size anymore. I've waited for a small truck for so long that I'm happy to see Ford fulfill the small truck gap. I loved my 2000 Ranger and it sure earn it's keep. I'm hoping this truck is just as good if not better than that one. I don't know about adding a lot of things to it for now, but I'm glad to see that I can do it at another time.

Put a ladder rack on top and a bed topper on with a tool storage system in the back you have a great setup for daily service work for plumbers, electricians, handyman, internet companies, you name it. Maybe even add an eco boost v6 and make a cop car out of it!

Thanks for the deep-dive on this product. I think it will be very successful for the brand and it's obvious they spent a lot of time in development for a car that will be very affordable to a wide demographic. People are walking away from wagons for vehicles like this now whereas a few decades ago they were odd ducks. Remember the Subaru Brat? Now we have the Maverick (which was a car!) and Santa Cruz too which is great for those looking for an alternative to the typical SUV solution. My two niggles are the infotainment screen (which looks like an afterthought) and the headlights which look bargain-basement in design and execution. Otherwise, Ford got this right.

By the time it was delivered it was on a recall notice. So it waits on the dealer lot while the calendar burns through another month. I'm told backlogged recall part won't take forever, but it sure feels like it.

The biggest issues I see with it right now are the lack of an AWD hybrid option (yes, I understand that Ford almost always holds things back at launch but it seems they REALLY misjudged the demand for the hybrid.) and the current $3,000 to $10,000 dealer markups over MSRP. I'll just wait until the insanity settles down and Ford to get around to offering AWD on the hybrid. (It's available on Escape hybrid so it's just a matter of them adapting it to Maverick.)

I just bought a new Maverick 1st Edition Lariat with Luxury package and I love the truck however the Luxury package should have come with Navi and a screen that fits the entire opening.

For me, the two things that just struck me odd about the Hybrid is the plastic valve cover and the extensive use of one time hose clamps. Just seems chincy.

They missed the bed width by 1/2"!!! As a cabinet maker this truck was the perfect fit for until I went to pick up some 4 x 8 sheets of 3/4'' melamine. They come in at 49'' x 97'' to allow for trimming and do not fit in this bed as designed for plywood. I hope Ford will fix this in a future model when I will sell my current Maverick to have that 1/2''!!!

This truck is a slam dunk, but I have 2 kids and I REALLY wish this was a foot longer and 3 or 4 inches wider. The design of this is so much more attractive than the Ridgeline that Honda owes us an explanation.

You're kind of saying that the Ridgeline is what your wanting the Maverick to be. So there's that.

@@DrivenCarReviews I don't disagree, but Ford's styling is so much better! It's a shame that all the full-sized trucks didn't invest in some sort of hybrid over the last few years. Keep up the good work Mr. Volk, your weekly videos are part of my after-work ritual during the week. :-)

The B&O system was the only one I could get to and it's pretty good for a lower priced vehicle. Bass response is good, on the higher side without being boomy. But I suggest listening for yourself.
