No problem with a recall. The truck has been outstanding since I got mine in May. 55 mpg in town and 40 on the highway. In comparison: my 2015 Honda Fit..5 recalls in first year. My 2008 Pontiac Solstice: 25 serious warranty problems in 2 years. The Maverick has been trouble free compared to them.

Plugin pickups are going to be awesome with electricity on tap for working. But I think the perfect machine might be a diesel plug in, that could run on biodiesel. Then, as batteries get better, the core range could grow over iterations, but you'd always have that (kind of) carbon neutral fuel to fall back on. If 100% pure BEVs don't immediately take over, then biodiesel plugins (with iteratively growing battery capacities) are the asymptotically-final form of heavy duty ground vehicles.

Will there be a 2wd ranger hybrid in canada

Ford doesn't have to go all electric immediately to get sales. First of all, most of their consumer vehicles are going to get 30+ mpg within the next 5 years or so by becoming normal power assistance hybrids. That's fantastic on it's own. But I also imagine as batteries and other electric technology improves, they'll be able to do plug in hybrids. A plug in hybrid with 20-45 miles of range on battery means most people will not use the gas engine on probably 85% of drives. And even when they do, 99% of the time they won't be using it for more than a few miles. For all intents and purposes, those are electric cars. In fact, as it stands today with electric infrastructure and charging speed, thats *better* than fully electric cars today because you don't have to stop for 45+ minutes on those 1% of times when you're on long trips. So I think Ford is putting itself in a fantastic position to transition into EVs. I just wish they'd started the transition 5 or so years earlier. (And to be honest, the transition should have started back in the early 00's when GM built the EV1. But we know the oil companies intervened there.)

I ordered a ford Maverick and dealer has been increasing dealer markup of $10,000 plus adding upgrades I don’t want like nitrogen air filled tires, ceramic coating and other accessories which comes shy of $12,500 over that MSRP

Why does the front end/grill on the 2023 AU Ford Ranger look more like the Ford Maverick and F150 rectangle headlight frames, but the 2023 US Ford Ranger still has the 2022 frond end style with the slim headlamp frames? The 2023 US Ranger doesn't appear to have changed from 2022? Also, can a person purchase a 2023 AU Ranger diesel and import it to the US? - Asking for a friend....

The dealerships are not the problem (some dealerships are better then others). The lack of products from Ford is the problem. Fill up dealer lots with product and all problems are solved. Dealerships with too much inventory are always ready to make deals and move product. Dealerships with only one specialty vehicle, have always charged over MSRP. Ford's EV production levels are slightly better than the production of a specialty vehicle. Many local dealers have yet to even see a lightning on their lot for sale. It remains to be seen when the lots will be full of Mach E's, Lightnings and the like. Ford has supplied you with great video footage and you are doing a great job at promoting the future of Ford. Now, lets see if and when, Ford can stand up to produce a large selection of EV's to choose from. Farley admitted to Sandy Munro, they had basically no vision when it came to building a lightning factory, and now he has to knock down a wall and expand. Of course you may say sales were so good they had to expand. Or you could say they didn't plan to succeed and were just testing the waters. Don't get me wrong. I want Ford to succeed and build Mach E's that have good batteries with good high voltage contractors and carry that over to their future EV's. Time, not words will tell the rest of the story.

Ford, why did you start a channel acting like a auto news outlet touting your vehicles and slamming your dealers and Tesla? You know you have plenty of honest dealers out there that don’t charge over MSRP. Give them the allocations to sell people your cars and really do something to the dealers that price gouge. Stop giving the offenders the inventory. Plus, stop pointing fingers. You guys have raised the prices on every model by thousands from 21 to 22 and now for 23. Furthermore, when dealers don’t jack up the price half the people buying the popular models are flipping them and jacking up the prices on their own. It’s called supply and demand. Supply more trucks!

Ford has over 110-yrs. of production & proven capacity. If they want to achieve displacing Tesla, they have the resources to do it and the will to follow it through. On price alone, they trounce Tesla, but their range is still mediocre. Nobody wants to have to find a charger and sit there for an hour or more for every 200-mile drive.

There is only 1 plant making the Maverick, the Hermosillo plant, and it has to make 2 models. They still haven't reached full capacity due to parts (only made about 6k last month), and i believe the max production capacity of the plant is 10k/month.
