About the Ford Maverick
A small, affordable pickup truck. It is easy to park and the hybrid version gets car-like gas mileage. Great for weekend projects.
Drives like a car, not a truck. Smooth and easy. The turbo version is quicker and can tow more.
Tip: It is in high demand. Be ready for waitlists or markups on new ones.
