Thread 28704696

Now that the Maverick 300T exists, do you really have any reason not to buy one?

>>28704696 (OP)
My mom wont allow me

>>28704696 (OP)
Great, a turbo 2.0 liter with 300hp that will last 60k miles. Sign me up.

>>28704696 (OP)

Not being retarded is a pretty good reason. Why buy this when you can have literally anything that isn't a pickup?

>>28704696 (OP)
>not single cab or extended cab

>>28704696 (OP)
My girlfriend says they look like small penis cars not trucks.

She actually laughed when I showed her pictures.

She laughed harder when I showed her the engine power figures.

>>28704786
what's his name?

>>28704801
Aileen

>>28704696 (OP)
Smart people already have their hybrid one

>>28704786
The power figures and 0-60 on every maverick engine option are all probably better than what she drives

"Car girls" hate Mavericks because they always love Subaru, and the Maverick is basically a direct subaru competitor to their whole lineup, but cheaper more reliable and more logical.

>>28705025
>Smart
>CVT
Pick one.

>>28705033
I wish I could be this confidently fucking retarded at anything in my life.

>>28704719
Considering the Maverick 2.0L option just got a power reduction for 2025 because the transmission was weak on the old ones, just bolting on a bigger turbo is probably an awful idea. They do require the 4k tow kit which adds extra cooling, but wtf is the point of this truck with 300hp? It's already very fast with the hybrid and it's 247lb-ft torque combined output. Not much high end but low end is what you need in both a truck and getting around comfortably.

>>28705035
I own a Maverick and it pisses off every Subaru girl. Way more people are interested in it than bashing it.

The hybrid is the only one to buy, it's both more reliable and cheaper than the EcoBoost and it's also faster 0-60 for the first couple seconds - which is what matters more in daily driving. Power down low.

>>28705034
eCVT with planetary gears and infinite ratios from electric motor. No belts or chains. It's more robust and simple than a regular auto slush box.

>>28705033
She drives a Lexus RX350

>>28705050
Small dick energy for sure

>>28704696 (OP)
I’m waiting for flying cars

>>28705050
This is basically a Honda Element designed for retards

>>28704696 (OP)
What does the 300T have that makes it a better truck? Is it now body on frame? Is the engine now longitudinally mounted? Is there at least a non direct-injected engine option now? Is there now a single cab option at least? Did they at least lower the MSRP to make it a $20k truck in base trim as was promised?
No to all of those things? You mean it's now just a pigfat auto-only Focus ST wearing a "pickup" costume? Damn. Neat for those that want a '''sporty''', compact, unibody CUV LARPing as a pickup truck I suppose but I'll pass.

>>28705347
Whoever's running Ford nowadays should probably kill themselves for discontinuing every car that isn't the Mustang and replacing it with a truck.

>>28704696 (OP)
>it's just a turbo kit
lmao

>>28705050
>faster 0-60 for the first couple seconds
So, it's slower to 60?

>>28704696 (OP)
I don't need one.

>>28705386
It's slower 0-60 but faster 0-30 and faster 40-60. Any more questions on how hybrids work

>>28705275
Okay so it's the same as the hybrid and slower than the turbo maverick. Her horsepower figures don't matter when rx350 is 500lbs heavier than a maverick

>>28705347
Don't worry, it'll handle your yearly visit to Home Depot for 3 bags of dirt just fine

>>28705059
It's still a CVT. It's shit

>>28705560
Well there no mild hybrid manual or geared auto

You don't seem to understand that the 0-30 is faster than every other stock truck on the road. It immediately has electric torque served to 4 wheels and spools up to the ~5600rpm max and holds it. When you floor it you experience maximum power output within 1 second without gradual acceleration, it just fuckin launches

You faggots can keep going on about your shitty manual vehicles that haven't been made for over 20 years and/or act like there's some sort of invisible alternative in new vehicles that isn't a poverty spec NA 4 cylinder colorado or tacoma with a 12 second 0-60

>>28705566
The 3.0TT i6 dodge rams are the fastest "regular" trucks currently on the road.

>>28705050
>>28705539
It's slower in every measurement of acceleration. Cope more retard.

Cars that take longer than 5 seconds to reach 60 mph should be illegal, its unsafe.

>>28704696 (OP)
They should make one with Focus RS drivetrain, complete with the meme AWD drift mode

>>28704696 (OP)
Bring back the 1985 Ranger. It's all we need.

>>28704696 (OP)
I have no need for a pick-up cuck. My SUV does everything I need on the utility front.

And to which wheels does it send this power to?

>>28704696 (OP)

Is it AWD?
How much can it tow?
What sort of MPG does it get?
What does it cost?

If its cheaper and gets better MPG than a Ranger; but can still tow a decent load it might be interesting. I can't see it being much fun to drive though if that's what they're going for.

>>28707315
This is just a regular Maverick with a bigger turbo

>>28707254
All 4 upon launch

>>28704719
4 cyls have been making that reliably since the 90s

>>28704786
What is a "small penis car?"

>>28705347
What is L.A.R.P.ing?

>>28705370
They still make little gay hatchbacks on stilts THOUGHsoeveritbe

>>28707555
Obviously the maverick we just said that

>>28707573
Define "small penis car" without using the word "maverick"
rx350s are asian grandma cars, by the way

>>28704696 (OP)
Very cheap interior at a high price

>>28705347
No one would buy the single cab pig fat truck you say you want retard. You drive a 01 corolla

>>28704696 (OP)
Mavs are good for hauling a few bags of potting soil, not much else.

>>28707824
Anything you can put in the bed under 1,500lbs wtf are you talking about?

>>28707824
That's 99% of truck buyers anon. The real competition the maverick has is used trucks

>>28708064
People who want mavs do not want full size trucks

>no v8
maverick is for gygacucks

>My girlfriend says

>>28705050
You literally have no penis

>>28712899
Yeah but I have the most vehicle for the footprint. Good thing my penis doesn't drive my car

>>28712998
Man the stock wheels are bad

>>28705037
>Powertrains for the 2025 Ford Maverick remain the same - buyers can choose from the 2.5-liter Hybrid system - which is once again the standard powertrain - or the turbocharged 2.0-liter EcoBoost I-4. The latter model has lost 12 horsepower compared to the outgoing 2024 Maverick, however, due to the addition of a gasoline particulate filter.

>>28712998
My wife has a 2024 XLT with AWD. It's a good little daily for rural AB, handles the winters well.

It has better fuel economy than her 2015 Honda civic and has been reliable so far, she got the 4k towing package too so if she wants to haul her horse she doesn't need to borrow my truck either which is also nice.

Its pretty comfy, zippy and it goes A to B I give it a 7/10 but it also allows my wife to buy animals without telling me now so Im giving it a 6/10, I dont want anothervhighland cow

most F150 drivers would be better off with a Maverick and they're too scared to admit it.

>>28705050
Based maverick enthusiast. Makes the normies seethe.

>>28714476
Anon, no offense to you, truly, but this is the gayest driveway I've ever seen. I suppose at least you do not drive a Tesla.

>>28704696 (OP)
I have an LS swapped Ranger.

>>28704696 (OP)
At that price im taking the F150

>>28715042
There is no rear seat in that truck that is not comparable at all

>>28715044
I will take 1 less seat for a bed that is double the size and triple the carrying capacity & 30% more HP and quad cabs exist for 5k more

>>28715042

I never understood this american way of thinking.

>For this top trim super lux version of a smaller car I can get this basic pleb model of this larger vehicle

>>28715058
That's a lot of extra HP for hauling air and maybe a fridge once or twice.

>>28715042
>pitch black tint
>not a speck of dirt

Be honest, you'll never use it to do truck things. You just want to LARP as a man.

>>28715227
In this case it's car frame vs truck frame. Makes a huge difference

>>28715058
Look at what people are actually driving on the road its almost never a single cab truck. Your use case is uncommon.
>>28715227
Its not an american way of thinking we don't do that. Only retards on the internet say that and they don't even do that themselves most of the time. Single cabs are uncommon.
>>28715292
No it doesn't for the average buyer. Most people who buy trucks don't tow often.

>>28704696 (OP)
I don't need a truck anymore

>>28716187
>let me pull a trailer every time I want to go kayaking or mountain biking

>>28715351
My actual truck, the silver one is more of a direct competitor to the Maverick, I am tempted to get a 2wd F150 street truck similar to the silver one for the lower entry and 24 mpg this would replace my daily driver Honda.
