It's a Mule-verick.

Nice. As much as I don't want to hit anything, I swear that I've come close a bunch. No so much in the city or suburbs, but around work sites or having to wiggle into places with a load. #truckstuff

see: https://fandiem.com/sweeps/win-the-all-new-ford-fathom Covered Fathom, or just a shell?

Specifically for a truck, humans driving has to be a thing. Are you going to have bed load sensors to detect if something is going wrong back there? Also if the tailgate is down then that's one less camera.

I've been hoping for news like this. This is great! I've been putting off buying a house battery system. Also on my wish list: Pro Power. My dream is to be able to run a mobile maker space out the back of the truck for events.

The spare tire may be like the Maverick: a spare tire became on add-on in 2026.

Also if the looks of the Fathom don't generate excitement, then people will just go with the more truck-looking Maverick.

While I really enjoyed BlueCruise, because the system would disengage somewhat randomly and there's enough debris on the roads, I always kept contact with the wheel.

Lower range can be OK if fast charging is possible (like 60% battery in < 10 min; 50% battery < 5 min would be amazing). On an average day I'm doing about 60mi round trip. But there are a number of days where I'm pushing 120mi round trip, and occasionally 180mi. And as we know, if you're going...

I have thought the indent below the handle was the way to go. I also had a Mach-E that suffered from the push button not always opening the door.

I hope for tires that withstand having a loaded bed or pulling things. I'm ok with a range penalty in this case.

👀 🤔 🤣

I also hope the front profile looks more "truck" than "cute". I liked the 2025 Maverick updates.

You get used to it, honestly. I drove a MINI with the large speedo for a while and it was weird only for a little while. I just hope the display has a Dark Mode like the Mach-E had.

I would love an X-plan for loyal customers who don't have access to X-plans.

I care about the bed size since a lot of materials I move are 4' wide. The Maverick bed's tailgate entry is about 50" wide IIRC---the internet will tell you the bed max width is 53", but that's beyond the tailgate. The bed height is about 20"; about 18" if you have a tonneau cover.

Pre-2023 Mach-E owners remember the HVBJ problems.

The Mav's tech (and the Mach-E) works fine, but it means more hard braking incidents. Especially stop-and-go traffic: it technically does the correct acceleration and braking, but that doesn't mean it is comfortable. With my human eyes I can clearly see 1/2mi down the road there are brake...

Well we eventually got the FA.

BC was great on long trips. The only thing though is the eye detection: the sensors are on the steering column. If you are drinking coffee or water, you have to take quick sips because the 5s timeout is too short. Top-mounted cameras would have been better. I've come to appreciate the Mav's...
