We have 5 miles of maintained beach that AWD do good on … it can get beat up quickly - or they try to go past the that section and it’s all chewed up by big tire trucks and Jeeps …
I imagine every other manufacturer has a similar small pickup coming sooner than later. As others have said finding a base model might be hard, there will be a lot of loaded $30,000 models on dealer lots. With the Maverick being Ford"s lowest cost vehicle it should sell well. I'd definitely consider one if I could get one below $25,000 out the door.
Article from 2004 . Ford works with Toyota for hybrid ESCAPE . https://www.wardsauto.com/news-analysis/toyota-technology-kick-started-ford-s-hybrid-escape . MAVERICK looks to be shared with TOYOTA .

It does? Not to me it doesn't.

If i were in the mkt for a truck, this would be at the top of the list.
Honestly, as a suburbanite that just needs something to haul some gravel, dirt, plants, yard debris etc once and a while, I'd look at one. I don't tow anything. I don't have room at my house for a trailer, association so we can't park them outside.
I'd love to have a small truck for camping as well. It's nice not having to throw your smoky, dirty, wet camping gear inside your vehicle, hauling wood to the camp site etc. I'd have to imagine this rides better than a body on frame truck for long trips.

We are bumping up on 150k with our 2014 Fusion Hybrid - been a solid car …
It might be traded on a Bronco Sport or hmmm ?

I meant the powertrain . Sorry about that .
The MAVERICK also has the flip up seats like the Santa Cruz . Honda came out with it , MAGIC SEATS , https://www.battisonhonda.com/blog/what-is-the-honda-fit-magic-seat/ . Works wonders for the FIT and HR-V. Very handy in our '13 FIT .

You can get 2.0 ecoboost with 8 speed. 24k on build your own ford
I mean it is nothing I want, but I am sure that there is a market for such trucks.
I really want to hate the Maverick. I can't.
This small truck makes so darn much sense for so many people.
For low $20K's you can feel like a big bad F-150 bro-dozer guy. And get 40 mpg to boot.
A Maverick will still be in service 10 years later and will have done tons of American homeowner work.
Owners will love 'em. The early 70's Datsun pickup has been reborn as a modern small pickup.
I was sold till I read it was FWD/FWD based AWD.
I missed something here. A Toyota power train in a Mexican Ford?
Too bad it has zero configuration options
Give me a 2 door
Bench seat
Long box
Never happen but that would be perfect for me
Little motor with a manual transmission would get the same highway MPG and best of all no hybrid tax penalty
