  1. Progress! Now "In Production"

    FWIW: From my Maverick purchase experience, it is not uncommon for your truck to be listed "in production" and wait up to 2 months before it actually rolls down the line and gets built. Good luck?
  2. Ranger Hybrid for USA?

    You must have confused me with another poster. This truck has been in the works for 5 years now, and available globally for ~2 years now. Simply follow the timeline of new variant introduction for ROW and add 2 years for best case scenarios of any models possibly making it to North America. That...
  3. Ranger Hybrid for USA?

    don't hold your breath waiting. so far they can't even deliver a single production unit to a customer in the most basic body/engine configuration. Does not bode well for the future :rolleyes:
  4. 2024 Ranger Production Increased 558% in January 2024

    they can't release for shipment until they get OKTB. Once that is announced you will see movement to ship happening. I'd bet some or many of the already produced numbers are media loaners and dedicated for display at shows, etc. Some of those produced may not even be salable for customers, just...
  5. What gives? No rear A/C vents?

    you're right! Mine is an actual truck I can drive right now and the Ranger is still a figment of your imagination until proven otherwise!
  6. I bailed

    not in the Maverick I owned. In the manual it states 91 is recommended for best overall performance, not just extreme use or towing as some claim. Many arguments over this on Maverick forum, but it's clearly stated (in small print).
  7. I bailed

    Yes, they were, however, there is price creep constantly on MSRP and destination charges and that helped me pull the trigger. For example, looking at in transit inventory I could claim, my truck and an identical in every way twin were both headed to Albuquerque dealers in same market. There was...

    Thanks. I actually liked the looks & side profile of the Ranger better, except for the front-end view. Frontier wins there to me. My Maverick had a face only a mother could love! Really don't like the whole C-Clamp thing or squinty side eye designs of some. Frontier looks a little more old skool...

    the Ranger is also 40hp short of the Frontier in stock trim. There's no replacement for displacement. Frontier is 87 octane recommended too and gets 18/24 21 combined MPG. My Maverick was 91 for "best overall driving performance" and I'm guessing Ranger is too, especially when towing that 7k...
  10. I bailed

    Nissan is a little short of 48" BETWEEN the Wheel wells, otherwise fine carrying 4x8 size.
  11. What gives? No rear A/C vents?

    my new Frontier has standard rear AC vents, dual zone climate control, push button start and even remote start with key fob. The answers we seek exist outside planet Ford grasshoppers. :p
  12. I bailed

    Update time. The deed is done, new truck is home. Ford shit the bed on Ranger and this is actually a better option for MY needs I think: 2024 Nissan Frontier King Cab SV. Standard 310 hp naturally aspirated V6 and extremely smooth 9 speed auto that actually has a manual shift mode I can use in...
  13. Unscheduled clean?

    Recalling back to my Maverick experience, this term was interchangeable with 'in processing' and not really helpful. The milestones we waited on back then was your order being confirmed as locked to further changes at Priority 2 or lower and previewing for selection by the factory to go "in...
  14. Happy 2 year Anniversary!!!

    The record's stuck, the record's stuck, the record's stuck...
  15. I bailed

    Well I went another direction as well. Have a 2024 Nissan Frontier SV King Cab in transit and deposit on it to secure it. Had my Maverick for a year now as a place holder waiting for a 6G Ranger SCab + 6' bed combo to be announced. Did my research on the Frontier while waiting and finally drove...
  16. I bailed

    Not true. They left the Compact market in USA only because they couldn't compete with Toyota's market domination and couldn't devote resources to even make a serious go of it. The segment disappeared losing most players while remaining few morphed their trucks into mid-size. Ford decided to...
  17. I bailed

    I guess you were unaware they still had to build 2023 Rangers and a shitload of Broncos in the very same factory all the way up until the Strike? That's not sitting on their thumbs. Sorry the world isn't conforming to your exacting timelines, that's life. A little tip for you I learned during my...
  18. Have Any Rangers Come Off The Assembly Line Post Strike?

    The sad part is there are delays and frustration with Toyota as well. Even when trucks are actually showing up at dealer lots, many may already be spoken for and Toyota is not taking customer special orders like Ford still does. Found the same thing with Nissan. I had to resort to scouring...
  19. Have Any Rangers Come Off The Assembly Line Post Strike?

    Not for me. I'm actually shopping Nissan Frontier King Cab right now. That and a new Ranger SCab with 6' bed are the only 2 I consider upgrade over my Maverick. YMMV
