Although the nameplate originally was used on a less-than-stellar compact car line in the 1970s, Ford is reviving the Maverick name for its new small pickup truck, and slotting it into the lineup below the mid-size Ranger. Instead of sharing parts and mechanicals with the Ranger, the Maverick rides on the same chassis as the Bronco Sport compact crossover.
* snip *
The Maverick pickup truck has been in the works for some time but the wait is nearly over. It's slated to go on sale in fall, 2021 and Ford is currently taking reservations for it.

I waited years and years for the new Ford Ranger to come out, only to be disappointed by its size. It was too darn big for me. This new Maverick looks perfect. The base model starts at $21,490.

They should announce the new Ford Pinto in time for the Fourth of July. :-)

I am sorry I sold my S-10 single cab truck. I hate these extended cabs.

Actually the Maverick was a nice looking car. Looked like a small muscle care.
The new pickup is front wheel drive, hybrid, four doors, and unibody. Any of which is a deal killer for me.

Bring basic the 2-door pickup with no back seat and a long bed! I need a truck, not a sedan with no trunk lid!

I dunno what you call it, but it's not a truck.

Ecoboost 4 is not a 100k engine in that size of vehicle.

First the Mustang is a plug-in SUV now the Maverick is a pick-up truck. Where are we going and why are we in this hand basket.

How about the 2022 Ford Edsel? They can be proud and brag about the first production car that runs under rubber band power.

Is the "sporty" edition going to be named "The Grabber"?

Can’t get a truck the size of a Toyota SR5 anymore. The new “compact” trucks are nearly as big as an F150.

That made me smile-when you need it most it’ll stop working. Seems fitting it would be a Ford.

I was surprised that Ford is not offering a 2-door version with a longer bed. But I’ve got to fit it into my small 1950s era garage. Even the new Ranger was too big.
So if I want a truck, I’m got to go with this almost-truck.

I’m so tall I have to have an extended cab. I enjoy the startled looks when people see the truck from the side with no driver.
