Default 2023 xlt

Hello again, I took about a 2 year hiatus from the F150 for a Ford Maverick that I finally decided was just too small for kids behind me, especially on long trips. I wasn't planning on going so new, but I couldn't pass on this one. It's a 2023 XLT Screw that had 950 kms on it when I picked it up. So basically brand new, was about 40% less than the cheapest 2025 on the lot.
It's a bit of an oddball package. It was apparently an Exec Demo, that just wasn't used. It's got the big 3.3L (which is what I was looking for) it's an XLT but has the vinyl flooring like an XL work truck. It also has the 3.73 e-locker (L6) rear end. To top it off came with a color that I've never seen/noticed before. Avalanche grey. So it's light grey in the shade and in the sun I swear it's Oxford white. Nice General Grabber APT tires too.

Couple of pics:

Nice find. I love the 3.3. I found one for my mom a few years ago and it's been fantastic. It's an 18 302A package XLT and it's a 6 speed. Averages over 20 mpg and has been dead reliable.

The 3.3 V6 with six speed is the most dependable and trouble free truck that a person could have purchased. I would buy one today IF Ford still made them instead of waiting for my 10 speed to decide when it is going to finally implode on me. We have several in our fleet with well over 200K in miles with no issues and poor maintenance.

Nice F-150 I had a 2023 Bronco Sport BB and traded it for the 2025 AWD XLT Maverick with the 2.0 EB I have now!! I missed having a Truck when I got the BS BB since I had a bunch of F-150's before the BS BB!! I don't have kids so the Maverick is great for Me and I love it and even hauled 30 1.5 cubic feet bags of mulch in it!! I can tell You unloading the mulch bags out of the Maverick was a lot easier than unloading them out of the F-150 since the Maverick is a lot lower to the ground!!
