Hi! I just ordered my Maverick XL in Area 51. I don't see a lot of people on the forums who ordered the XL, so I am hoping this works out for me. I've never been interested in owning a truck before, but this seems like a good size for me. I put a tow package, AWD, and the ECO Boost on mine so I could use it for camping and pulling a small trailer but also being a daily drive for me. I've never owned a Ford...my dad was a GM engineer, so hoping for the best! Also hoping to hear from other NM owners who might like a meet up!

did you order in ABQ or somewhere else?

I ordered from Town and Country Ford in Alamosa, CO. I found out that they had allotments for orders left...only one had been used when I ordered. Plus, I live in Taos, so ABQ is 3 hrs away and Alamosa is only 1.5 hrs away from me.

I ordered from Rich Ford in ABQ. I had a good experience with them buying my Focus in '18, and have had some negative experiences with Chalmers' service department. It's further for me, given that I live in RR, but going out of my way for a better experience is worth the gas and time.

Long story short, Chalmers took 3 weeks to diagnose a problem that I clearly explained, including me coming back (twice!) to demonstrate the issue to the service manager, while Rich had the same problem diagnosed in a day and fixed in 3 days. Apparently the '18 Focus likes to eat accelerator pedal position sensors, I've gone through 2 of them at about 13k mile intervals.
