“And therein lies the undercurrent that I think partially explains the Maverick’s success and everyone’s adoration for it: shame. Specifically, small car shame. Shame that’s driving some buyers to purchase a pickup when they’d be fine with a car or reasonably sized crossover; shame that’s driving Ford to sell a pickup as a replacement for a car.”

I have to admit - it sounds a little bit too good to be true... Still, the fact liberal journalists DON’T approve is a good sign...

And in China same truck sells for under $10,000.
