The Fast Lane Truck: What's the Better Small Truck: Most Popular Ford Maverick vs Best-Selling Toyota Tacoma.
$38K vs $51K
It'll be interesting to see the actual off road comparison.

The Maverick and Tacoma are very different vehicles. Ones an actual truck and the other is a unibody. Why bother?
I saw another Maverick today. What are they? A modern AMC Eagle station wagon with the wagon decapitated? One thing I know is they’re ugly.
The Tacoma? Maybe the Vikings?
Always good, but never great or horrific. You know there’s better teams out there, but they’re just too damn spicy.

Man I've been giving those ZR2's a hard look. The ZR2 Bison looks pretty awesome also. Just don't know if I can justify the price!Got me the big brother a few months ago.
I was going to get Z71 colorado, but for extra $3000 i got the ZR2
the Bison is awesome too, I’m very very happy with my decision,
i had to retire my 07 colorado with 400,000 Km on it with no issue

Not yet, waiting for the proper kit which properly incorporates the factory 2" lift. Performance wise, Borla exhaust (factory), CAI and Firestone airbags. Oh, and the Petal Commander
I think I read you have the AT4X?

Don't they call the exhaust Cat Back? Are you waiting on Bilsteins? The Pedal Commander will spin the tires if you don't watch it. Yes, AT4...don't know why I've been paying extra for Denali.Not yet, waiting for the proper kit which properly incorporates the factory 2" lift.

I’ve pondered a pedal commander. What are the positives and negatives?

After test driving another Maverick (with the Tremor package), and my wife laughing the whole time from the back seat due to the small size, I decided I needed to do something else.
I'll be picking this up tomorrow. Had to adjust budget for sure, but a good call I think.

Really happy so far, solid truck for the price.
