Any feelings of being 'cancelled' are completely made up in your own head. You're free to say whatever you'd like. And no one has said anything to the contrary. Let's try to stay on topic though and not derail this.
That's one perspective. Or you can view it as they went through a lot of effort to show they are listening to the community and want to give the information they can, rather than hiding in the dark and going quiet from now until deliveries.
Yeah here's a fun exercise for all the Maverick boys and the Q&A poopooers:
Go email Ford asking about the universal EV platform they've been hyping. Ask something really specific and niche like I'm sure a lot of people asked Slate. Then come back here and let me know if they give a very...
Seriously what do you people gain from coming in to every thread and screaming "BUT YOU CAN GET A MAVERICK" and creating hypothetical families in your heads
Like what is your end goal? What are you hoping to get out of it? Because to me you all just come across as either huffing copium trying...
What I've noticed from this Maverick crowd is just a whole bunch of confirmation bias. They come in here trying to convince themselves that they made the right choice. They got bullied by the full size truck crowd telling them their little truck wasnt a real truck, so they flood other forums...
Not exactly sold out when someone in this thread posted a dealer with over 40 on their lot, my local dealer has over 260 available for transfer in their network, and a thread on MTC just the other reported nearly 50,000 more produced in 2025 than were sold YTD. November 2025 gross stock reported...
I just hate, HATE, absolutely HATE every thread on this forum becomes 'YOU CAN GET A MAVERICK'
Yes, we know.
If you're one of those people that has to bring up the Maverick just please stop.
If you want to talk about the Maverick go to a Maverick forum.
next model years usually start hitting dealerships like late Q3/early Q4 right? I'm a decently early reservation but I'd be surprised if I get mine before christmas 2026
yeah but for some reason other people with nothing better to do have to turn every thread in to "bUt MuH MaVErICk!!!!!!!" or "DID THEY CHECK THEIR LOCAL AND STATE LAWS BEFORE DRIVING SLIGHTLY OUT OF FRAME IN A CLOSED COURSE PARKING LOT?!?!?!"
must be a sad life. the rest of us appreciate this...
man some people are just miserable
waaaaaaaaaaaaah no red flag
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah it's not flat
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
go call a whambulance you cry babies or go troll a different cars forum.
why not take this for what it actually is, which is a company listening to and...
Since when is Meineke just a 'muffler shop'? The whole point of it being a network is so you can have choice and options, and you're not locked in to only your local dealership. The locations can also tap in to other locations for expertise if they can't do what you need.
Down the road from you...
Give it to me day 1. I want one of the first ones off the line.
Based on everything I have seen so far I have no reason to believe the vehicle is going to be anything different than what they have shown/advertised. It won't be a huge over promise under deliver situation like some other electric...
All these weird hypotheticals you've come up with have completely moved away from the original intent of the conversation that is to state for most people the simpler maintenance of an EV is a selling point that goes along with the simplicity ethos of Slate. That's it, I'm done with this...
Because those are all "get to"s, not "have to"s. Like another poster said, mods are not maintenance, and not all people that mod want or can do maintenance. And vice versa.
Again you're completely missing the point. You're coming at this from a mechanic perspective, we're all talking about this from an ownership perspective as it relates to routine maintenance, not complete component or system failures.
Regardless of EV or ICE, for the vast majority of vehicle...
