I went to purchase a new vehicle. My first pickup in about 7 years. I couldn't justify over 100.00 a week in gas. I drive 75 miles a day. But Ford just came out with a solution. The new Mavericks.
I went with the 250hp, 277 ft pound torque 2.0 turbo engine with AWD. This gets the same mpg as my Bronco. And I added the 4K tow package so we can get a boat later. Granted, it isn't a full size pickup. But I've always liked the smaller pickups. My last was a ranger with FX4 package. Loved that truck. But it had a nasty gas addiction.
So, the wait begins....
12 to 14 weeks lead time. I'm guessing the shortage of parts is the reason. But that's fine. I can wait!
