        A versatile vehicle! 2023 Mav Tremor

        by TremorNV on 11/23/2025 3:02:38 AM

        I went with the Tremor trim for more off-road capability. So far there hasn’t been a thing I couldn’t do with this Mav. I’ve gone on long road trips, explored rough trails, loaded lumber, hauled a sectional, towed a side by side with it, driven in Tahoe snow and many other things. First, I’d say it’s actually a fun drive. It really sticks to road and handling it is super easy. Yes, it has a plastic interior and the tech does feel a little outdated but you get what you pay for. It’s a 33k mini truck. I haven’t had any issues. The heated steering wheel is the hottest of any other one I’ve had. It has over gotten stuck on me and the bed is like 6.5 ft long with the tail gate down. Capable of hauling ten foot wood, which I’ve done. The gas mileage on my Tremor (Awd eco boost) is 28-29, which makes me happy. Truthfully, back in 2019 when Ford brought the Ranger back… it should have been this truck. It’s a great little truck, beats the Santa Cruz any day!

        surprises come in smaller packages

        by Dptazzz on 11/16/2025 5:40:02 PM

        i didnt buy the truck i wanted, i bought the one i needed.. big enough to tow any future toys, small enough to take on long trips, as well as comfortable, and not driving like a bigger pickup.. gas mileage runs 28.8 to 30.2, i can get it a bit higher on long trips. Economy option helps a good deal when cruising for long periods, having the truck run in FWD when its most economical, and not needing the extra traction, is a plus.. the seats are more comfortable than my Cadillac ATS, and they were all leather.. it drives fairly quiet, no, not luxury sedan quiet, but, better than my other 1500 series pickups ive had. bed is big enough for me, i already used it to move from one house to another across town, and towed by trailer behind me, once with my 800lb motorcycle, and didnt really notice it. i drove thru snow and ice heading to missouri, at the end of 2022 ( i got the truck new in April of 2022 ). and I passed a LOT of cars while driving thru slushy snow, snow covered roads, etc, with no real issues. I grew up mainly in Missouri, so snow and ice covered roads, are second nature. A good vehicle with great traction wasnt always underneath me, this truck never made me nervous, and I passed going up hill, passing trucks slowing everyone down, in those nice hills on US 65 out of Arkansas going up into Missouri. Yea.. truck handled it like a champ. i simply have no real complaints, other than a string of modest recalls. which all but the last one have been tended to, and i simply have to have the time to Get to this last one. i would buy this truck again.. I ordered it, bought it without a test drive.. Lariat with tow package.. it simply is a great little truck.

        Fun to drive, Sips gas, Infotainment needs a rewri

        by AlanC on 11/9/2025 2:27:29 PM

        I've enjoyed the truck. Its seats are far more comfortable than those from manufacturers who put in high bolsters and bulging seatbacks. Ride is surprisingly smooth and quiet; better by far than our 2021 Santa Fe. The cruise control's distance-keeping feature needs to allow more following distance, so its practically useless to me. Tailgates will love it. The SYNC3 protocol, which I use for Android Auto, is highly annoying when going among functions. Ford needs to implement a volume control roller on the steering wheel, like recent Hyundais, instead of push-buttons, to make up/down/mute easier to hit by feel. Ford put some neat indentions in the bed to allow for load-separation cross members. The little 4-banger sounds like it struggles with every transition from electric to hybrid, but that's the sad state of Powerplant affairs today. Gas mileage is an eye-opener. I've gotten 50 on some drives, and the average is around 45 in the 1,500 miles I've driven this used 2024. I miss my F150 Supercrew less all the time. This little truck does what I need at this point, didn't break the bank, and is fun to drive.
