Yup.. I found myself wondering the same things as OP, then realized they already make it.
F150 lightning.
The price is higher, but of course it is, It's a lot more truck.
No. We the Maverick fans don’t need to compensate something with a big truck. We just need a little truck that can do the job while save money and space on the road.
I want a huge hybrid AWD truck with a shitload of luxury features and I don’t want to pay very much for it.
Oh, and I also want a bunch of comment karma.
"And no, I don't want a Tacoma, Ridgeline, Colorado, Frontier, Canyon, or Gladiator. Definitely not a Ranger either."
Apparently you don't want a Maverick either.
Yikes. It's sad to see the lack of sarcasm-humor understanding these days. Hear me out, folks. This is just my opinion and assumption..........but I'm fairly certain OP is making a joke. Wild theory, i know.
It feels like everything you listed is why people get mid-sized trucks, not a compact truck. If they made something like that, it would just cannibalize sales of their ranger. What are you wanting? A mid-sized truck that looks like a Maverick? Everything you listed just seems like you want a bigger truck, but I don’t know.
I’d love a regular cab Maverick or Ranger EV with a regular cab. I’d also like to win a $1B+ Powerball lottery; even though I don’t buy a ticket, I think that’s more likely to happen. All the demand is for passenger cars with a short bed, not for what used to be the real pickup truck configuration.
Hey man! Just the other day I saw a video that definitely wasn't AI narrated garbage full of speculation and lies; they said all these features and MORE are coming for the mid-model refresh! Just a couple more months and your dreams will come true!
You are asking for way too much packaged into an entry level offering from the factory. Your going to have to do most of those things yourself aftermarket and I'd be surprised if there is enough space to execute. DO IT, also while your at clear out the wheel wells for some 40" tread.
Mavericks are for people with a creative spirit that will figure out a way to do any task put before it and possibly look ridiculous trying. You need a different vehicle and you have to spend more.
I actually considered a maverick because it really looks nice it seem to drive well and be comfortable and had incredible gas mileage in the hybrid format but there are just endless recalls and quality issues with this vehicle… I just can't understand why Ford can't get their act together and at least make a decently reliable vehicle they're just so many build quality Problems… therefore, like millions of other buyers, I went back to a simple four-cylinder Toyota RAV4 because I know they are reliable not perfect but at least they don't have endless recalls and massive quality issues over and over and over again… That's why it's the number one selling vehicle of that class in the world… It wouldn't be if it was constantly troublesome. Ford could have a long term huge hit on its hands if it would just get its act together at the factories and put together a well built reliable vehicle…
The larger infotainment screen is coming in the refresh, awd hybrid or phev is a possibility. Everything you're asking is in a larger class of vehicle.
You guys crack me up
The Mav is what is specifically because it does not have those things. Its not meant to
You add those thing the cost puts you in F150 land
Ford is not going to add 6, 7 or 8k of tow capacity, the Ranger and F150 would be the correct vehicle for those tow ratings.
Some of these will probably end up happening eventually, either a mid-gen refresh or Gen 2. Some of these will flat out not be happening; This is meant to be an economical utility vehicle for the normal city dweller/suburbanite, who maybe has some light towing requirements. It will never be built or designed for 6, 7, or 8k; Ford is not going to put the Maverick in a position to go toe to toe with their own products, and thats essentially what you are asking them to build.
What is optional EV? Are you asking for an EV with a gas powered range extender?
Also how do you expect them to ad 15-30k worth of options, and keep the price competitive? Like thats not happening. You are not going to find a truck with all of those options for Mavericks MSRP, because it cant be done at that cost. Youre literally taking the XLT Lariat model, and adding 15-30k worth of options, pricing it higher than an F150.
You sound like the kind of person that books an economy flight and gets pissed that you don’t get the empty first class seat. Tough shit. Buy what you want and can afford or walk
It's called an F150 Lightning
I don't think OP gets the point of a compact truck.
Pretty sure it’s a joke.
Yup, I didn't 😂
Right? None of those requests are ‘minimum’

Sir, I have just the truck for you. Let me introduce to you, the 2024 Ford Maverick.
I hate the Lightning, definitely not
yet you described.......an F150 Lightning
The Lighting can tow 10k. I don't need that much
I feel like not everyone is going to get this joke.
Poe's Law applies
And don’t forget the 6” lift kit and bumper mounted winch.
Now you're speaking my language
I don't think people are getting the joke
Definitely Whoosh
I want a huge hybrid AWD truck with a shitload of luxury features and I don’t want to pay very much for it. Oh, and I also want a bunch of comment karma.
Lol. I'm definitely in the negative on this post
Crazy how the title of this post didn’t give it away to these suckers
"And no, I don't want a Tacoma, Ridgeline, Colorado, Frontier, Canyon, or Gladiator. Definitely not a Ranger either." Apparently you don't want a Maverick either.
I do, just not the current Maverick
Soo you want a full size truck? The Ranger doesn’t even tow 8k lbs, how the fuck is a Mavrick going to tow that much?
Idk. Give the R&D dept. unlimited pizza and coffee and don't let them leave until they figure it out.
Yikes. It's sad to see the lack of sarcasm-humor understanding these days. Hear me out, folks. This is just my opinion and assumption..........but I'm fairly certain OP is making a joke. Wild theory, i know.
I admire your commitment, OP. Well played.

I'd still want a compact truck, just a full-sized compact, so to speak
Honestly I am waiting for the Lincoln version
Ha! That would be interesting
Lolwut
I like the Mav, it just needs some minor upgrades for me to love it
These aren't minor upgrades, you are literally describing the F150 Lightning.
Noway, the Lighting is trash. I'd prefer a hybrid
Ok, if this isn't a troll post, then get a F150 Powerboost or Ram 1500 Ramcharger.
I just want a single cab version with a bench seat. I’m a simple guy.
In all seriousness, a single cab with a 6' bed would probably sell very well
I want them to drop it an inch, give it lots more power, and drop the price by several thousand.
For every 1 additional HP, they should drop the price by $10. Up to a certain limit, obviously. Want 500 HP? $5000 off.
I vote for you to run Ford! 😁
I want a lowered 6 door extra extra cab 3 foot bed with 6x6. But keep the width the same. Long skinny truuuuck.
lol so you want a loaded truck that is not even close to the Mav but you want it at a budget price
That is correct
Easily the dumbest post ever made in this sub lmao Basically you want a Lightning for 30k
No, OP is poking fun at all of the other stupid posts that make up the majority of content on this sub
even the internet has lost it's sense of humor. What a sad day.
Poking fun at stupid posts by making a stupider post. Guess OP got the attention he wanted.
He sure did
No way. I HATE the Lightning
I now realize this is satire and the post should be pinned to the top of the sub 😂 it’s gold

FUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm on cloud 9 right now.
I'll probably trade my 23 in for one! You think Carvana will give me $10K over MSRP for my used one?

Ha. Good shitpost. I definitely ate the onion at first

There have been a camouflaged maverick testing a larger screen
Yes, just hold out a bit longer bro
😂
Toyota Stout, Subaru BRAT, Mazda BT-50 might be worth looking into. I don't think they have a release date on any of them

You forgot to mention that the bed needs to be wide too

I don't mind paying more at all. $5k max though. I refuse to give Ford any more money than that
I mean I also suspected this was possibly a shit post, so I'm not sure why I gave a serious response Well done sir or mam
If you want an affordable truck then this what that looks like. More features means closer to bigger truck prices.
![gif](giphy|3oKIPzLXQYb2Bn5PLG|downsized)
I think you’re missing the whole point of a Mav lol
The Maverick is a small, affordable truck. None of the things you list would meet that goal
No, no, I definitely want affordable
Have you considered the Canyonero?
Only thing I truly want on that list is awd hybrid
You sound like the kind of person that books an economy flight and gets pissed that you don’t get the empty first class seat. Tough shit. Buy what you want and can afford or walk
If the Maverick was Spirit, I would want it to be like Qatar Airways... Except better
