Long-term test cars

We bought a 2023 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe after we gave it our Best SUV of 2023 award for its diverse offerings of luxuriousness, family-friendliness, powertrain options and capability.

Our staff racked up nearly 16,000 miles on the 2022 Maverick hybrid’s odometer in the year we owned it, and our ownership experience was mostly issue-free.

Knowing what we do after two years of ownership, would we buy the 2021 Ford F-150 again?

After weighing whether to spend $386.73 to repair the active air dam, we decided instead to remove it entirely, which is a common solution other F-150 owners have taken.

We put some serious numbers on the odometer of our long-term 2022 Ford Maverick in service of a story with the most inane of premises: visiting Masterson, Texas.

While our Tesla Model Y’s range certainly dropped in colder temperatures, it didn’t fall off a cliff; more like it tumbled down a berm.

The Maverick hybrid has unladen ride quality that’s a bit bumpy, but putting some additional weight over the rear wheels with the attached trailer — along with some supplies in the cargo box — ...

Since our last Maverick update, we’ve added nearly 6,000 miles to the Maverick’s odometer resulting in calculated fuel economy of 35.8 mpg.

Ford offers a hybrid drivetrain in its F-150, and Toyota debuted a hybrid powertrain in its redesigned 2022 Tundra. Both share a number of similarities.

See what you get — and give up — by choosing the Maverick EcoBoost over the Maverick hybrid.
