I'm really digging that terrain color. But the price increase is making this vehicle not worth it in the grand scheme of things.
The 2022 model started under $20K with a hybrid power train. That same model is now $26.4K.
The lariat hybrid was $27K and is now $35.7K! The truck still has a $20K value interior...hard plastics. Why would someone buy a Maverick now?
This is a huge bummer. I've really wanted the base hybrid with the original pricing but the lead time to build and dealer markup was big concern. Now its a way harder sell. Glad I gave up and picked up an 06 Ranger for 5k.
It does. It was almost unbelievable a base hybrid was $20,000 though. I'm hoping any Maverick competitors can be a little more competitive price wise.
