This video has single handedly made me reconsider getting a F-150

[@Anchor7]

I just got a Maverick lariat tremor. LOVE it. Go look at them before buying the f 150

[@MrDaveB123]

The MPGs are everything I wanted and put a deposit on a Tacoma , rented one for a weekend , got my deposit back. Gas milage absolutely sucked

[@liveraddieradder]

I get the same if not better MPG in my Titan that I got in my Tacoma

[@nealsidor1323]

Aside from a fixed solar set up, nothing's missing. This truck hits ALL the boxes...

[@trailsandtrucks]

It is so dialed!

[@alanpilibosian1979]

No low range is the deal killer for me. It would really take the strain off the transmission if you wanted to do an easy mountain pass like Ophir

[@kenp5551]

Cool build, it looks like a lot of thought went into it and he’s getting enjoyment from it. It’s funny I was against the lariat interior because of the colors but the more I see it… man it looks great. Has a real premium look. My favorite part of the build is the rack that works with the roll up cover and the swing out spare tire with the table. It’s at a perfect height.

[@trailsandtrucks]

Ya its definitely one of the best maverick builds out there so far!

[@MrNathan07]

I really like how he has the bed rack, yes you loose some of the height for loading stuff in the bed but it's still usable for loading stuff in when you need too using it everyday. Overall I really like the build, if it was me I'd get the XLT with the FX4, 4K Tow, & Co-Pilot 360 packages, then do a 2" lift on some 245/70/R17 all terrain tires as well with a very similar setup.

[@martingriss4895]

Sorry I missed this video a year ago. Lots of cool add-ons. I'm really enjoying my Lariat FX4 Atlas Blue, 4K. Ride the ditches and tight lines to the winches.

[@shkoich]

The owner is such a cool guy

[@nathanrains9292]

My morning commute used to suck. Then i remembered..."hey, i am travelling OVER LAND to get to work." All of a sudden everything that involved my car was an adventure. Now, i overland for coffee, groceries, and the entire time i am working as a dasher for my side hustle! My 94 geo metro is a total budget build with factory 13's amd a 7 gallon fuel tank. The great thing about a metro as you platform is that i can park at all the same mall spots the lifted jeeps and t4r's park in. Overlanding is awesome

[@Shadow-lq7rx]

sounds like cope

[@nathanrains9292]

Total satisfaction with my build. Switching over to studded snows thursday so i can overland all winter

[@martinmcintyre7623]

A 2-inch lift and bigger tires really transforms the Maverick. Stock suspension looks weird on the road. If you see these out on the roads you know what I'm talking about. The roof is really low for the overall proportions of this vehicle and how it presents on the road. Spacer kits are very inexpensive and probably doable for the home garage mechanic. Tires are not inexpensive but that is pretty much the extent of cost on giving this trucklet a better look and off road capability. And payload and towing capacity are pretty impressive considering its FWD based architecture.

[@trailsandtrucks]

Agreed!

[@theshop5331]

easily ordered now days, mine was mid August 23, delivery is scheduled December 23, will be a 2024 xlt, x4, 4k, EB, CG, 360, yours is awesome, ty for posting

Great Build! Well thought out!

[@robertneighbors3520]

Maverick's gas generator runs 100% of the time, there is no "all electric range" just off batteries, it's just that the ICE generator is carefully tuned to a single speed, for a bit better MPG. Locomotives have the same scheme, except their ICE generators are diesels powering electric motors.

[@tommybarnhart6023]

Great thought out design/mods!!

[@Daniel-bh4px]

Cute little baby truck!

[@whateverjustposting]

i dont think i buy him getting 32mpg on the highway. i have an awd mav and i get like 28

[@stuartnewman9290]

28 Hwy only- in town 19-22mpg. FX4 XLT Mav...

[@shannonjurgens3667]

I agree. 32 not true.

[@prestonpurnell8856]

If u look it up he is actually right

[@dcl97]

A majority of drivers tend to overthrottle slightly and then back off to adjust. The ecoboost motors will disproportionately open the throttle relative to the input when aggressive inputs are noticed to reduce turbo lag. Learn to feather the throttle and you'll get another 2-4 mpg on the highway.

[@benbaldwin627]

I just drove my stock fx4 mav 290 miles cruise set on 70mph and averaged 35.1mpg Arkansas to Tennessee so some mountains mostly flats

[@comingsoonmarketing]

Thx fo the video ! Veru useful and kind :) Thx Dylan!

[@nathanrains9292]

In the first minutes of the video, owner states its a budget build amd the trucks can be bought for $20k. Very next sentnece mine was $40k. The term budget, left the chat at that point.

[@jimyeats]

But it remains to be said, this is basically the only "truck" you can get that has AWD/4wd, crew cab, and a bed where the actual MSRP for that build is like 26k dollars, as I just built one out on the website, plus the fee's, so about 27.5k. The absolute base model with no upgrades is like 23k. The problem currently is that dealers are literally just blowing up the prices because they know these aren't available easily, so they are marking them up to just under trucks like the Ranger, Tacoma, exc.

[@trailsandtrucks]

facts

[@ramonahumada4]

Nice!

[@jesseobrien5864]

I'm disabled. I want to get one and put a camper on it and live in it part time in the mountains. Is that possible? I have 2 bum shoulders. I almost wonder if I should build out a hybrid van instead? P.S. Can you wash the dirt out of the engine if it's electric? Would you have to vacuum it instead? Cool build.

[@nachete9752]

Cool video. The music is a bit too loud though :(

[@MrDaveB123]

I like it !!

[@irone93]

Its 5k over MSRP everywhere

[@bufjayup7774]

Seriously looking for a larger wheel / tire package for my 2023 MAV Tremor. What impact did changing tire size do to the "gear hunting" at speed and grades? Just curious....I put 33s on a 2018 Jeep JL and the damn tihing would rarely stay in 8th gear - was always hunting between 6 and 8. Had the 3.6. Had the 3.45 axle ratio. It was seriously annoying

[@ryanmartinage]

Not sure if a tune is available but you’d definitely want to adjust for the tire size

[@Sphoxros]

Anyone else's OCD fire off when he opened the hood LOL. XD

[@nissanz808]

After installing the 245/70/17 did you have to cut and trim your fender well?

[@Shane101A]

Around $20k. Eh, base MSRP is 22.5k. plus dealer fees and tax, so at least $24k.

[@Nightakula]

And that’s for a 2wd… be way closer to 30 than 20…

[@House2.0]

Yeah, this guy is totally exaggerating. And there is no way this thing is getting 32 mpg.

[@douglasholt3432]

Good luck finding a new or used Maverick anywhere near MSRP. I just purchased a used one for several thousand over sticker.

[@danthecraftman]

i mean he literally said his cost him 40 tho@@House2.0

[@Ichibuns]

I paid $28k for an XLT with AWD, FX4, and 4K tow. The prices have gone up since then. There're dealers that will charge MSRP for orders. I had them give me a written agreement.

[@Scottnjoe]

Great video!!

[@trailsandtrucks]

Thanks!

[@losthighway4840]

"Theyre very cheap..you can get them around $20k." "How much is yours?" "$40k"

[@cocogotgame5603]

Why is the hybrid fwd wtf

[@johnmerriam7844]

doesn’t matter

[@TheDfelan]

25 has awd hybrid option now.

[@christiancruz33]

Not to sound like a hater but this guy seriously has no idea what he’s talking about. 7ft of bed length with the tailgate down? 32 mpg fully loaded??

[@rickysiebert9618]

Yep. Bed is 54” long. Bed is 20” deep, so with the tailgate open 74ish”. Not 7’ for sure!

[@jerretgreen2014]

40k is insane.

20k? Lol. Not for this purpose lol. I mean don't get me wrong plenty of people go adventuring in two-wheel drive cars all the time but 20K you're getting a bare-bones hybrid two-wheel drive ford escape with a bed.
