Ford Maverick Truck

Wondering if anyone on here has one yet? Ordered out a 2.0 awd with the tow package to replace the wife's commuter car. Can order without commitment to buy until delivery. Not really an off road rig, but with the tow package can tow 4,000 lbs,-good to tow my boat or small trailer. Looking for something with a little better mileage than my big truck. Like to get an opinion from someone in the area if possible

I’ve seen a few and sat in one. They’re very tiny fyi. I’ve talked to one owner who loves his.

I was curious about the Hyundai Santa Cruse?
I rented a all-Wheel drive Santa Fe, and was mildly impressed with how it handled going over the pass in blizzard conditions.
They sure have came a long way.

Well, finally took delivery of mine this past week. It replaces my wife's CRV and so far we are quite impressed. We got the 2.0 eco boost with all wheel drive and the tow package. Won't be doing any hard off roading with it, keeping the 4wd F-150.for that. Will be using for light hauls, like my boat and small travel trailer, to take the heat off the bigger truck. Getting 28mpg so far and still figuring out all the assorted tricks on it. Wife likes it, and gives us more versatility than the crv did.

We were looking at one of those also.
None of the dealers had any to sell or even test drive.
Were told the only ones the dealers saw were customer ordered units.
The ones that they did have for sale were one that the customers backed out of.
And of course the price was grossly inflated.
5-15 over MSRP !
Curious how it tows.
We want to use it to tow a 2000 lb tent trailer.
Have a 94 Wrangler now but its not well suited to the task.
