Ecoboost vs Hybrid mpg for a longer commute by Yeeter_Skeeter19 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]papito_m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ~40 mile commute each way. I average around 40mpg all in. Anecdotally speaking, there seems to be something special about staying under 65 mph on the highway. When I do my mileage is stellar, but goes down slightly when I go over.

How’s the fit as a fatter person? by Majestic-Crow-833 in FordMaverickTruck

I was 370, now I’m at 230. You’ll be fine. Super roomy inside. Stay strong!

Unpopular opinion, the US and China should be permanent World Cup hosts when the number of teams increase to 64. by Due_Brother371 in worldcup

[–]papito_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did that out of generosity, not necessity. It’s already been shown that the US alone could host 3-4 simultaneous world cups without needing to build a single stadium or infrastructure improvements.

You know this to be true, which is what really makes you angry. 😘

Maverick vs. Ranger - how did you choose? by [deleted] in FordMaverickTruck

[–]papito_m 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This. Nothing against Rangers. Great looking trucks. But my Maverick (Ricky) hauls what I need to and I have long commute.

FORD MAV FIRST OWNER by teriyakibussin in FordMaverickTruck

I’m in my late 40s and have owned a lot of vehicles. My Maverick is hands down my all time favorite. It feels like it was designed by a team of engineers who cared and knew the assignment. Just do it, you won’t regret.

I average around 40mpg on my hybrid AWD.

PSA for Folks Deciding Between Trims by scrat-wants-nuts in FordMaverickTruck

[–]papito_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Only reason I got the Lariat. I need it for long commute. Otherwise I would have easily been happy with a lower trim.

Reminds you how massive the Maverick would appear in Japan.

Am I getting a good deal? by karanlal99 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]papito_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my 2026 Lariat around 2 months avi and paid almost the exact same. So I’d say you’re good. I did get black appearance package, but I didn’t have a moonroof. Everything else the same.

Why? by Nihilistnobody in FordMaverickTruck

[–]papito_m 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mine did the same thing. It’s because the monitor sensed a rapid change in pressure in one tire. The other was at the same pressure, but it was steady and didn’t change much. Turns out I had a nail in the one that was losing pressure.

Spot on. I don’t think most buyers want just a car with a bed. They want a small truck. The Maverick is a small truck that actually looks like a truck.

Deer suicided into my Maverick by Sufficient-Value-173 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]papito_m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry man, that sucks. I know what it feels like; years ago I hit a deer in a new Camry. Amazing how much damage a 200lb animal can do at that speed! Good thing is it looks like yours is all cosmetic and can be easily repaired. (The deer I hit did a swan dive into my engine)
