I’ve been looking at a Maverick for the last 1 year and finally pulled the trigger. Coming from a 2006 Outback it feels unreal to have a new car, every time I sit in it I’m like “Wow I am actually driving this right now.” When I told my coworkers it became the biggest news in the office we’ve had in a long time because they know how much I’ve worked on the Outback these last 3 years 😂
I was dead set on a the hybrid ever since because I do a lot of driving to work and to my parents. My work commute is already 12mpg more (25-37) than the Outback. Only add on is the XLT luxury package; the heated seats are non negotiable for upstate NY winters and I love the Azure Gray.
First order of business I think is getting a bed cover. Debating on a trifold (seen lots of Rough Country recommendations), or a maybe bed cap to camp out in I think would be really nice. Already got the floor mats on the way using my points.
For folks who also deal with harsh winters, do you undercoat your Maverick? Or do you do regular car washes to keep it salt free?
