For the most part the vibes are pretty positive when it comes to Maverick ownership on here. So for those who've owned their Mavericks for a while now and are enjoying it, what, if any, is your stand-out complaint about your truck? What one little or big would you change if you could?

No cooled seats. I’m in Arizona and it’s a pain especially with this last summer and all you people in the cold north places know that regular timed flatulence is perfect for heating your seats , but it doesn’t work for cooling them. What was FORD thinking….

I have lived in FL for 50 years, and have had several vehicles w/o even A/C. I got by. Especially vehicles with a triangular opening vent window on front of front doors and floor vents. They really made a difference! 😀

I’d like to know specifically what they thought would happen that did not.

Saving cost [/QUOTE] I wanted cool seats, I would pay more! Nope they said, I wanted GOS, nope they said. Now they’ll do it? I paid a lot for this fully loaded Maverick!
NEED GPS, cooled seats!
Yeah, I have the best tint sun shades for every window not just the front but when it’s 115° in Phoenix and you don’t have cooled seats in your car and you’ve had them in every other one for 10 years you notice it. They easily could’ve strung the hardware along with the heating hardware like almost every manufacturer does now. Pre cooling now key

Cooled seats would be nice, but they don't offer them. Same as the Escape and Bronco Sport. Not offered, can't get it. So, why is it an issue?
No GPS? Didn't offer it all in 22. Most folks do GPS via their phone, so connect your phone using Carplay or Android Auto and use Apple Maps, Google Map or Waze. Now you can get it in 23 or 24 in the Lariat. So move up or just join the rest of us in the 21st century.

Hmmm…. Could it be that these are supposed to be low priced vehicles, and those things are expensive?
(FYI- I agree. Those things would be nice!)
Ordered a white XLT 2.0 FWD with mats and hitch receiver, that's it!

Your "annoyance" threshold if far too low! It is totally useful for SAVING FUEL. Must be really a case of being unable to teach an old dog a new trick. You should have gotten a hybrid. That is why I'm getting a tachometer, as my ICE turns on and off whilst going down the road, and I have no idea when it happens, and I'd like to see. Just once in a blue moon it turns on while at a red light, and I then notice it.

The lack of adaptive cruise control and having to reset the drive mode to Eco every time I start it up. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with my Maverick. I like it almost as much as my new BMW bike.

Here are some small things I’d like to see ….Would like to see an illuminated USB port. Have a hard time seeing it at night to plug my phone in, an “oh shit” handle on the driver’s side, illuminated visor mirror on both sides, removable tray in center console to make it two level, no backseat alarm for not buckling up or easy to disable(groceries do not need to be buckled in) redesign door storage so it can be used for actual storage(winter gloves,umbrellla,) not just for water containers, make it so YouTube can play on the screen and then make the screen larger, doing away with that dead “storage” space.
Good call on all of those items !! I still don’t like the twisty knob shifter and its position would also like remote adjustable side view mirrors on all trim levels - old school is great but this throws back driving 40 years! I got lucky and snatched up one of the $ 19, 995 XLs So I can’t complain too much . it’s about 1/2 the price of any other good looking sought after vehicle

I got lucky because my order rolled over to a '23, so instead of getting a late year '22, I got one of the 1st '23s. Plus, the ONLY reason I ordered an XLT was for cruise control, so since '23 included it standard, I switch to ax XL '23, and saved the $2,250 extra for XLT badge.
Since I got the rollover credit, it brought my MSRP for my '23 to $19,640!
