$17.5k would make this an even better work truck which I'm sure Ford will sell lots of.

I'd happily buy a 2 door with a longer bed even if it was a little more then base.

I would also like a two door version with a six foot bed and only front wheel drive . But I want this body style

 

[Philpug]

If this configuration was available, I would have an order placed. The 4' bed is the dealbreaker for me.

I bet we'll eventually learn that Ford is open to other body styles. But it should depend on how sales of the current model goes which I'm sure will exceed expectations. This community is a good example of that.

I would be surprised if we don't see variations. Ford CEO Already Sees Maverick as Successful, Suggests Variants

The 4 door for me. In case I need room for extra people. Plus I have Sissy my only pup now. The bed in Maverick is wide enough to haul 4x8 sheets of plywood!!!! That made me want one. I like the looks of the Maverick>>>>>trucket<<<<<< LOOK> But I think the Ford Designers must have gotten in a tizzy about the front end. Very Blah! Even the original Maverick had great front end styling The 2022 Maverick side and rear styling is great to good. Front end, milk toast. I still like the Maverick enough to get one. Maybe just push the top edge of the Grille forward more to lean into the wind? Just needs to be more mad [email protected]@!

I am not suggesting either/or…but both and even a single cab with 7’ bed. Also how about enclosed (same wheelbase) to be a spiritual replacement for a Honda Element.

The more models the better! Just this will be my only vehicle and daily driver, so I need a 4 door. I presently own a 2018 Dodge Challenger, which I dearly love, but it is impractical for what I need. I reserved a XLT AWD FX4 TOW Pk Lux Pk with a few more options. (31,000 Dollars) ( I reserved a Big Bronco with Squatch option, tow pk 41,000 dollars) Now with the new administration and gas already a buck more a gallon, this Maverick is the right choice for me. But the Lariat interior is ???????? That color orange-bile? Horrible.

Since Ford is only doing SUV & Trucks now they should definitely aim to please all those that have diffe to truck needs! great idea.

With Ford officially revealing the Maverick and reservations now open, our imaginations starting running wild about what could be done with a compact truck like this, including what a two-door short cab would look like.

To start, a two-door Maverick would certainly be a more utilitarian option for those that plan to use it as a work truck. A short cab would allow Ford to extend the 54 inch (4.5 foot) bed closer to the bed size of an early '90s Ranger (72 inches / 6 feet). With Ford's new Flexbed design a larger bed could offer even more configurations for owners.

If the Maverick's $20,000 starting price wasn't low enough a short cab would likely lower the price even more than that. Imagine a short cab Maverick 2WD hybrid with a starting price of $17,500? That sounds pretty good doesn't it?

I prefer the 4 door for occasional passengers as well as larger protected/lockable space for cargo.

Just look at the mix of current pick ups out there, 4 doors are the vast amount by a large margin. Most of them have a usable 6' bed though. I think the main reason to offer an extened cab is to offer a larger bed option.

I believe the only small pickups without the crew cabs are the Ford Ranger and GNC Canyon with extend cabs….these are 11” and 13” longer than the Maverick crew cab. Not sure but don’t 4 dr pickups have build advantages either safety or cafe mpg requirements?

That 1' (11-13") difference is huge, especially for the "Urban" market they are trying to concur. I don't think trucks have to meet the same safety or cafe requirements that passenger cars have to.

I always preferred smaller trucks as regular cab vehicles, they just look better proportioned and more sporty, not to mention more practical as affordable work/fleet vehicles. Three of my four Rangers were just that; regular cab, short-bed, all w/ manuals, rear wheel drive, and red. Though, now, the need to take dogs to the vets, and an occasional person to two with us does make this configuration a bit more practical.
