      The question is why does Scotty not trust Mexican made Mavericks but Mexican made Tacomas are Ok in his book. So is the old man just rattling nonsense? If the Maverick were built in Michigan would they be more reliable? Doesn’t matter so much where the vehicle was made but how well it was designed and engineered. Also quality control procedures transcends borders if done correctly. This is how Toyota can build vehicles globally and have more or less uniform quality across the lineup.

    Scotty, as a former officer that worked the road. We didn’t care what the car was until we clicked on it speeding!! Then we stopped it ,wrote a ticket!! So don’t say that we only looked out for those cars. Honestly we don’t have time to care on what it was, it was just speeding. If you want the truth, more women speed then men on my experience. I wrote women at almost twice the rate than men. Not because I cared who was driving or what they drove. They were just speeding.

      What I find amusing is police dont realize, or don't care, that they are common thieves writing most tickets. If you ever wrote one for anything under 10mph, used the Commercial Vehicle Code, or Uniform Commercial Code and the driver wasn't wearing a uniform or didn't have a logo on their car, you're a common thief for the government. Amusing how police don't know the difference between personal and commercial travel, or don't care.

      Coworker of mine bought the hybrid way before release and got it in the first month. I thought for sure it’s going to be awful because of the price being so low but it was actually really good. I think it would outsell the F150 if Ford made as manny as the market demands because it serve the purpose most people need a truck for better. A huge percentage of F150 drivers never tow heavy and don’t haul heavy either.

    I also ordered 2 Mavericks in 2023. I sold the XL hybrid for $7500 more to CarMax. Then I used that money towards paying off my Lariat, which I paid off in 3 months. I love having no car payments. I also loved using my FordPass points to get a discount on a 100,000 mile/ 6 year extended warranty from Flood Ford. It was totally worth the effort to flip. I work remote, so mine is low miles, garaged, and has frequent maintenance. The Ford Maverick is my first truck and we are a 2 vehicle family. I enjoy the utility of a small truck.

    The people who care about speeding tickets are the people that don’t pay attention when driving, take forever to catch up and put down gas to catch the vehicles infront of them and stop at yellow lights and cruise on the passing lane at 65. Aka people who have zero consideration for others and their time. At least speeders pay attention, know how to drive and don’t waste others time

    • @BB-ed4om
      @BB-ed4om 19 днів тому +1

      What???? This is the most brain rotted comment I’ve ever seen. To get a speeding ticket you’re going significantly faster than everyone else, increasing the risk of a wreck. Constant lane changes lead to accidents because other people aren’t expecting a speeding car flying into the lane they’re getting into. Speeders use whatever lane to pass and aggressively tail every car until they get an opening, again decreasing reaction time and risking an accident with a driver not looking out for them. Your speed should stay within the flow of traffic, it shouldn’t be ever increasing, never reaching a point to where you can maintain a speed. That’s how young girls drive. They’re either accelerating or stopping because they don’t understand how to use the pedal to maintain speed. Normal drivers keep up with traffic but they’re not racing ahead for no reason. They use the left lane for passing slow cars and don’t run red lights.

In Germany if the person behind you catches up you suppose to politely move out the way or you get a tickets, in Germany if a person is broken down on the side of the road in the low to be courteous and help out or move to the next lane to keep a safe distance. In America people who don’t pay attention and care about others are protected. Yeah we in the wrong not the selfish people who can’t pay attention and use brakes and gas pedals 😭 just say you don’t know how to drive. Also ever heard of an autobahn acting like modern cars ain’t 1million times safer than 20 years ago 😂 surrounded in air bags but make whatever excuses you need to justify being a bad driver cause you can’t pay attention enough to use a gas and brake pedal and keep up with traffic and stop at every yellow and drive slow on passing lanes cause that’s obviously safe driving and clearly just not being ignorant.
