Trims & Powertrains

  • Hybrid (FWD): commuter king with chill fuel stops; perfect for daily Quad Cities loops. Uses a continuously variable transmission for improved efficiency.
  • 2.0L EcoBoost (FWD or AWD): more punch for highway merges, towing, and winter traction when paired with AWD. Comes with an 8-speed automatic transmission for smooth and efficient driving.
  • Popular flavors:
    • XLT: value sweet spot (nice cabin, useful options). Certain trims offer bucket seats for added comfort.
    • Lariat: premium feel, more comfort tech. Bucket seats available for enhanced interior comfort.
    • FX4/Tremor packages (AWD): extra ground clearance/traction bits for gravel roads, snow, and trailheads. Includes all wheel drive and available AWD for enhanced traction and performance.

Wheel drive options (front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive) and vehicle configuration impact towing capacity and overall utility.

Capability (the “can it actually truck?” part)

  • Bed magic (Flexbed): built-in slots and tie-downs, DIY dividers, available in-bed power—super handy for coolers, mulch, or game-day gear. The FLEXBED™ system also features a versatile multi position tailgate, making cargo management easier and allowing you to customize the bed for different needs. It's ideal for hauling sports gear like bikes, camping equipment, or recovery gear for your next adventure.
  • Payload: strong for a small truck; great for home-improvement runs.
  • Towing: when properly equipped, it can pull small campers, jet skis, or utility trailers without drama.
  • Size vibes: lower step-in, easier parking than big pickups; still feels stable on I-74/I-80.

Tech & Comfort

  • Phone-friendly: Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™, multiple USBs, simple menus, and an easy touchscreen.
  • Comfort adds: available heated seats/steering wheel, remote start, dual-zone climate, and smart storage nooks for water bottles, tablets, and cords. Certain trims come with 17-inch steel wheels, and sparkle silver wheel covers are available for a premium look. The Black
  • Appearance Package is also available, adding blacked-out exterior accents for a sportier style.
  • Sound & screens: upper trims bring nicer audio and bigger displays—worth it if you live in your car.

Safety & Driver Assist

  • Ford Co-Pilot360® features available/standard by trim: automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping help, blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise on select versions, and dual front impact airbags as part of the advanced safety system.
  • Visibility: upright seating, great mirrors, and a clear rear-camera make city parking simple.

Winter in the QC

  • AWD + proper tires = confident launches in slush.
  • Remote start + heated bits = happy mornings.
  • Underbody rinses after storms will slow down salt corrosion (do it—future you says thanks).

FAQs

Is the Hybrid okay in winter?

Yep. It still uses a gas engine; just expect a small mpg dip when it’s super cold—normal for any vehicle.

Do I need AWD?

If you tackle unplowed side streets or gravel often, AWD is worth it. If you stick to plowed roads, Hybrid FWD + winter tires is a budget-friendly beast.

Can it tow my small camper/jet skis?

With the right package and weight within limits, yes. Check your trailer’s numbers and match accordingly.

How does it compare to Ranger?

Maverick = smaller, easier to park, thriftier. Ranger = bigger, stronger tow, more “traditional truck” vibe.
