Ford F-Series pickups have been impossible to beat for over 50 years. The F-150 is first in the American consciousness when it comes to towing muscle, everyday reliability, and ample engine options. Fourteen generations after it first rolled off the assembly line, the F-150 still covers just about every need you could have. Let's take a closer look at the most recent model year. Inventory Contact Key Takeaways Ford made only minor changes to the Ford F-150 for 2026. Multiple engine choices are available across trims. The F-150 is one of the most powerful towers in its segment. What Are the Changes to the 2026 Ford F-150? Changes for the F-150 are relatively minor this year. Ford replaces the hues Avalanche and Darkened Bronze with Space White Metallic and Marsh Grey. The automaker streamlined the pickup's exterior on its premium trims by moving the entry keypad from factory-installation to a dealer-installed option. Ford also made changes to its BlueCruise system to give drivers a more intuitive hands-free driving experience. You have endless choices when picking out the 2026 Ford F-150. It comes in six trim levels--the XL, STX, XLT, Lariat, Platinum and King Ranch. Off-road-oriented pickups, the Tremor, Raptor, and Raptor R, are also available. Ford offers the truck in regular, SuperCab (extended), and SuperCrew (crew cab) cab styles, with three bed lengths depending on the cab style you choose. As for powertrains--buckle up! Powertrain Choices Galore in the Ford F-150 Ford's engine lineup is the stuff of legend, and buyers are lucky to have access to one of the broadest powertrain ranges in the segment. A 10-speed automatic is standard across the board with your choice of RWD or FWD. Here's how engines (and fuel efficiency) break down across the board: 2.7L twin-turbo V6: 325 hp, 400 lb-ft (19 mpg city / 25 mpg highway) 5.0L V8: 400 hp, 410 lb-ft (16 mpg city / 24 mpg highway) 3.5L twin-turbo V6: 400 hp, 500 lb-ft (18 city / 24 highway) 3.5L twin-turbo V6 (Raptor): 450 hp, 510 lb-ft (14 city / 18 highway) 3.5L hybrid V6: 430 hp, 570 lb-ft (25 city / 26 highway) 5.2L supercharged V8 (Raptor R): 700 hp, 640 lb-ft (10 city / 15 highway) The F-150 is also a beast at towing and hauling. Should you opt for the SuperCrew with the 3.5L V6, four-wheel drive, and 6.5-foot bed, you can tow up to 13,500 pounds. In comparison, a Regular Cab with rear-wheel drive and an 8-foot bed hauls up to 2,445 pounds. Creature and Tech Comforts Inside the Ford F-150 The F-150 is both utilitarian and comfortable. No matter the trim, the front seats are supportive; as you go up in trim levels, you have the option of heating, ventilation, and massaging. Cabins are spacious and accommodating for taller occupants and car seats. Exterior noise is minimal. Tech in the F-150 feels modern, thanks to a standard 12-inch digital gauge cluster that displays everything you need to know, from towing info to off-road data. Next to it is a 12-inch infotainment touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. You also have access to wireless charging, over-the-air updates, an optional Bang & Olufsen 14-speaker stereo system, built-in Wi-Fi, and a head-up display in higher trims. Are You Ready to Experience the Might of the Ford F-150? Ford didn't fully redesign the F-150, but that's exactly what makes it a popular choice among buyers. Why fix what's not broken? The F-150 is consistent, proven, and ready for the road. If you're ready to get behind the wheel, contact Ford of Madisonville today

Introduction: The Ford F-150 continues its best-selling legacy into 2027, while it is not being redesigned there are some changes being made to the new truck. The biggest updates are occurring under the hood this year as Ford is adding a new standard V6 option along with expanding the availability of the larger engine options across the lineup. This article addresses everything we know about the 2027 F-150 so far! Inventory Contact Key Takeaways Ford is not redesigning the F-150 for a few years yet, but it continues to improve the F-150 by updating the base engine and making higher output engines more widely available. The F-150 is already available for order, so give us a call to get the ball rolling on your 2027 pickup truck! The previous 2.7 liter base V6 is being upgraded to a 3.0 liter V6 for the 2027 Model year. Is Ford updating the 2027 F-150? Yes, Ford is updating the 2027 F-150. Ford changed the base engine from a 2.7 liter V6 to a 3.0 liter V6 so that even the base trucks have higher power engines. Beyond that Ford is rearranging how the higher powered engines are available across the trims so that there is increased availability for these engines. Unfortunately beyond receiving a few sets of engine changes, the 2027 Ford F-150 is not changing much. This is because the popular auto maker pushed back the release of the next generation F series truck until 2029, as it is expanding its current lineup of trucks ( Car and Driver). This is most likely the result of Ford releasing the new Fathom, an electric midsized truck within the next couple of years. Once the hype dies down from the new EV, Ford will most likely release the next gen F-150. Can I already order a new 2027 Ford F-150? Yes you can already order a new 2027 Ford F-150! Ford released the official 2027 order guide in July 2026 and dealer order banks are currently accepting retail configurations. This means that you have the chance to start piecing together your own Ford truck for the new year. Call us now to get the ball rolling on your brand new Ford F-150! While the F-series truck may not be changing much in the new year, it comes with plenty of features that make it worth choosing over the heavy competition in the full sized pickup truck segment. The F-150 offers some great features for those who need a serious working or adventure pickup like Pro-Power Onboard, which can turn your truck into a generator and put out up to 2.4 kW on standard gas models and up to 7.2 kW on the hybrid model ( Ford). What engine will the 2027 F-150 have? Ford is replacing the previous standard 2.7-liter V6 with a 3.0-liter V6, the same engine family currently found in the Ranger Raptor and Bronco Raptor ( Car and Driver). Exact output figures for the F-150 version have not been announced yet, but the engine produces 405 horsepower in the Ranger Raptor and 418 horsepower in the Bronco Raptor. This is one of the biggest changes coming to the 2027 F-150. Since the 2026 F-150's base engine starts at 325 horsepower, the new 3.0-liter V6 should give buyers a noticeable bump in power. It is reasonable to expect the new base engine to make at least somewhere around 350 horsepower, although Ford has not released official figures yet. Buyers looking for even more power will still have several options available, including the 3.5-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8, both of which currently produce 400 horsepower in the F-150. Ford will also continue offering its hybrid setup, which combines a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 with an electric motor to produce 430 horsepower. With several engine choices ranging from the newly upgraded base motor to the V8 and hybrid powertrains, there should be a solid setup available for just about every type of buyer. Depending on the configuration, F-150 towing capacity will reach all the way up to 13,500 pounds, giving the truck plenty of capability for work, trailers, boats, and weekend adventures. Summary The Ford F-150 continues to be America's best-selling truck, and the 2027 model looks ready to keep offering the versatility that has made it so popular. Whether you need something for commuting, hauling equipment, towing, weekend adventures, or a little bit of everything, there is an F-150 configuration built for the job. The 2027 trucks may not be sitting on our lot just yet, but that does not mean you have to wait to experience an F-150. We have plenty of new and used options available right now, including 2026 models that you can test drive and take home today.

Introduction The Ford Maverick goes into 2027 flying solo with its now even more famous name, and as the only vehicle left in its segment. The only other compact truck was the Hyundai Santa Cruz, but production ends for that compact truck in 2026. This makes the Maverick the last pickup standing come 2027. The Maverick losing its competition makes it an easy year for Ford as the truck is going into the new year relatively unchanged. You can expect the same fun filled truck that is the perfect mix of everyday driveability, efficiency and utility. Inventory Contact Key Takeaways Ford has not discontinued the Maverick and continues to sell the popular Maverick in 2027. The compact truck is not going to change much in the new year, and will be available for order in Fall or early Winter of 2026? The 2027 Ford Maverick pricing should start around $30,000 and can be north of $45,000 depending on the trim, engine and any creature comforts you need in your truck. Did Ford stop production on the Maverick? No, Ford has not stopped production on the Maverick, and it will receive a 2027 model. One of the newer additions/returns to the Ford lineup, it has sold so well that it has outplaced sales from the Hyundai Santa Cruz. The Maverick will now be the only compact truck on the market as the Santa Cruz will cease production after 2026 ( Kelley Blue Book). With the Maverick continuing to sell so well, there is not much need to change the formula, and if they continue to respond to consumer requests, it will continue to sell well. Ford just listened to consumers when it added the all wheel drive option to the hybrid powertrain instead of having it only on the gas only engine. The hybrid powertrain outputs 191 horses and displaces 2.5 liters. For this engine the numbers you want to hear are that it gets 42 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. The other engine available on the Maverick is a turbo 2.0 liter that puts out 250 horses but only gets 23 mpg in the city and 33 mpg highway. Whether you prioritize hybrid capability or a more powerful combustion engine, the Maverick has an option for you. When to order a 2027 Ford Maverick? Ford tends to open order banks for the Maverick in the fall, and if you want your 2027 Maverick right out of the new year, we recommend ordering as soon as it is available. While you cannot yet order a 2027 Ford Maverick, we have plenty of new 2026 models on the lot that you can test drive and take home! If you want the next year model you can hold off and just give the 2026 model a drive to see if the compact truck works for you. While it is the perfect vehicle for a specific niche, the back row can be a bit small, so this can give you a chance to see if the Maverick or the Ranger works better for you. Is the Ford Maverick expensive? The Ford Maverick is priced competitively starting at around $30,000 MSRP with more creature comforts and higher trims taking the price north of $40,000. Car and Driver listed the 2026 Ford Maverick at $29,990 MSRP starting and the 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz at $31,350 ( Car and Driver). It is also comparable to some of its other competitors, such as compact crossovers with the Ford Bronco Sport, Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV-4 and Mazda CX-50 all starting around $33,000, and north of $30,000 ( Car and Driver). This makes it an attractive option as it has a similar size to a compact crossover, with a bit more overall length due to the size of the bed. This makes the Ford Maverick a bit cheaper than alternatives in 2026, and the prices should not increase by much come 2027. The Ford Maverick might be small and comparable to compact crossovers, it can still tow up to 4,000 pounds and has a payload of about 1,500 pounds. This means you can tow a jet ski, small utility trailers, dirt bikes, and more. Although you most likely are not buying the Maverick for its towing capacity, it just continues to add to the utility of your new compact truck! If you are a business owner, the Maverick has also become a popular fleet vehicle for its utility, cost and low gas cost as well. It provides a functional utility vehicle at a low cost for a wide variety of applications and businesses. Summary As pickups, SUVs, and even hatchbacks continue getting larger, the Ford Maverick remains a refreshing alternative for drivers who value efficiency, simplicity, and everyday capability. Ford has created a truck for people who want the versatility of a pickup without feeling like they have to sacrifice their entire fuel budget for a little extra utility. The 2027 Ford Maverick may still be a few months away from reaching our lot, but you do not have to wait to see what makes this compact truck so appealing. Stop by to check out one of our new 2026 Mavericks or explore our available used models. Call us at Madisonville Ford anytime for more information, and let us help you find the pickup truck that fits your lifestyle.

The spirit behind the 2026 Ford Bronco is taking the scenic route or the road less traveled. The 2026 Ford Bronco is an off-road SUV that's going to take you on a trail you've never explored, or watch the sunset from a place most vehicles simply can't reach. It's built to embrace adventure without sacrificing modern comfort. Even in 2026, with all the competition, the Bronco continues to stand out as one of the few SUVs that feels just as comfortable crawling over rocky trails as it does cruising through town. This article will break down all of the features that make the Bronco special to help you decide if this is your next pick. Inventory Contact Key Takeaways Legendary off-road capability makes the Bronco ready for trails, beaches, and mountain roads. Removable roof panels and doors create an open-air driving experience unlike most SUVs. G.O.A.T. Modes™ help optimize performance for changing terrain. Modern technology and available premium trims make the Bronco comfortable enough for everyday driving. What Makes the Ford Bronco So Much Fun to Own? The best part of owning a Bronco is the freedom to say "let's see where this road goes." One day it might be your daily commute. Next, you're driving with the roof panels removed. Few SUVs transform from a weekday commuter to a weekend adventure vehicle as naturally and effortlessly as the Bronco. It completely changes the feel; the open-air experience creates a connection to your surroundings that's difficult to replicate in a traditional SUV. To help with the ease of transition, Ford designed onboard storage solutions for available removable doors on select models, making it easier to plan your adventure instead of worrying about logistics of where to put your stuff ( Ford). Can the 2026 Ford Bronco Really Go Off-Road? The short answer? Absolutely. That is what the Bronco is made for. But what makes the Bronco special is that it gives drivers of all experience levels the confidence to explore. Ford designed the Bronco with purpose-built, off-road hardware, including available locking differentials, advanced four-wheel-drive systems, impressive ground clearance, and the legendary G.O.A.T. Modes (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain). Instead of manually adjusting multiple settings, you simply select the terrain you're driving on, such as Sand, Mud/Ruts, Rock Crawl, or Slippery, and the Bronco automatically optimizes the throttle response, transmission, traction control, and four-wheel-drive system for the conditions ahead. It's like having an experienced off-road guide built into the vehicle ( Ford). Off-Road Highlights Feature Included Why It Matters G.O.A.T. Modes Yes Optimizes the Bronco for different types of terrain. Available Sasquatch Package Yes Adds larger 35-inch tires, locking axles, and higher ground clearance. Water Fording Capability Yes Helps tackle streams and flooded trails with confidence. High Ground Clearance Yes Makes it easier to clear rocks, ruts, and uneven terrain. Removable Roof & Doors Yes Creates an immersive open-air adventure unlike most SUVs. Is the 2026 Ford Bronco Right for You? If your ideal Saturday includes hiking, camping, fishing, or kayaking, the Bronco feels like a natural companion. At the same time, modern conveniences like an available 12-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto™, available leather-trimmed seating, and Ford Co-Pilot360 technologies make it comfortable enough to handle everyday errands and commutes. The Bronco succeeds because it doesn't ask you to choose between adventure and practicality. It gives you both. You may spend Monday through Friday driving to work, but when the weekend arrives, you'll already be looking for your next destination ( Motor Trend). Experience the Bronco for Yourself Choosing the right Bronco is about more than picking a color or trim level. From deciding whether the Sasquatch Package fits your lifestyle to finding the right engine and equipment, our team is here to help you compare your options and find the Bronco that's ready for your next adventure. Photos can only tell part of the story. The best way to appreciate the 2026 Ford Bronco is to sit behind the wheel, remove the roof panels, and experience it firsthand. Visit our Madisonville Ford dealership to explore the Bronco lineup, take a test drive, and discover why this legendary SUV continues to inspire adventure.

Some trucks are built to get you from point A to point B. Not the 2026 Ford Super Duty. This heavy duty truck is built to tackle the jobs that other trucks weren't designed to handle. The Super Duty is engineered to make demanding work feel easier. Yet, what makes this truck truly impressive isn't just its massive towing numbers; it's how Ford has paired that capability with technology. This truck, just by its build, removes stress from some of the hardest parts of truck ownership. This article will walk you through all of the great features the 2026 Super Duty offers to help you make the best decision. Inventory Contact Key Takeaways Best-in-class available 40,000-pound gooseneck towing and 8,000-pound payload deliver serious capability. Innovative towing technology helps make difficult jobs easier--even for less experienced drivers. Multiple gas and diesel engine options let buyers match the truck to their workload. Premium trims offer comfort and technology that rival many luxury SUVs. The Engine: What Makes the 2026 Ford Super Duty Different? For 2026, Ford continues refining the Super Duty lineup with new package availability and expanded configuration options while maintaining its engine's reputation as one of the most capable heavy-duty pickups on the road. And about that strength, the Super Duty's biggest strength isn't just that it can tow more; underneath the hood is where the Super Duty gets its confidence. Ford offers several heavy-duty engine choices, including the legendary 7.3-liter gas V8 and the available high-output 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel. Power at a Glance Feature 2026 Ford Super Duty Max Gooseneck Towing 40,000 lbs Max Payload 8,000 lbs Max Diesel Torque 1,200 lb-ft Engine Choices Multiple Gas & Diesel V8s Available Drivetrains 4x2 or 4x4 One feature that deserves special attention is Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch. Instead of wondering if you've overloaded the bed or whether your trailer's tongue weight is balanced correctly, the truck measures it for you. Imagine loading landscaping materials or hooking up your camper before sunrise, rather than guessing if everything is balanced safely; the Super Duty helps you know before you leave the driveway. It's a perfect example of Ford using technology to solve a real-world problem instead of just adding another gadget. Can the Super Duty Handle More Than Just the Jobsite? Absolutely. That's one of the biggest surprises for first-time Super Duty drivers. While this truck is built to tackle demanding work, it doesn't feel stripped down once the workday ends. Available features like heated and ventilated front seats, a large touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, and premium trims like the King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited make the cabin comfortable enough for daily commuting or long road trips. ( Ford) One standout feature is Pro Trailer Hitch Assist. Hitching a trailer used to mean climbing in and out of the truck several times to line everything up. With this available technology, the truck can automatically steer itself into position while you control the brakes and throttle. If you frequently tow by yourself, it's the kind of feature you'll appreciate every single weekend, not just once in a while. ( Car and Driver) Is the 2026 Ford Super Duty Right for You? The 2026 Ford Super Duty isn't designed for everyone, and that's exactly what makes it so good. If your truck spends most of its time hauling heavy equipment, towing large trailers, or supporting your business, few pickups can match the Super Duty's combination of strength and smart technology. Even if your toughest job is towing a fifth-wheel camper a few times each year, the added capability can make every trip feel more confident. At the same time, Ford has made sure this heavy-duty truck doesn't require you to sacrifice comfort. Premium interior materials, advanced driver-assist features, and innovative towing technology make it easier to live with than many people expect. It's a truck that works hard Monday through Friday and still feels at home taking the family on a weekend getaway ( Ford). Experience the Difference The best way to understand what the 2026 Ford Super Duty can do is to get behind the wheel. Visit our dealership to explore the lineup, compare available configurations, and see firsthand why this truck continues to set the benchmark for heavy-duty capability. Whether you're comparing engines, figuring out towing requirements, or deciding which trim best fits your needs, Madisonville Ford is here to help you find the Super Duty that's built for your lifestyle, not just your budget.

Since the Ranger got a complete makeover last year, it stays pretty much the same for this go-around. Even so, it easily holds its ground against other midsize trucks like the Tacoma and Colorado. Here's the lowdown on what the 2026 Ford Ranger has to offer. Inventory Contact Key Takeaways: The 2026 Ford Ranger can tow up to 7,500 pounds and haul a 1,788-pound payload. The Ford Ranger features two powerful engines and your choice of RWD or FWD. Ford offers the pickup in three affordable trims. Because the Ranger was changed inside and out in 2025, there are no updates for 2026. What's New on the 2026 Ford Ranger? Since the 2025 Ranger had significant styling and mechanical updates, the 2026 Ranger is business as usual. As of June 12, 2026, its trims are as follows: XL: $37, 470 XLT: $35,445 Lariat: $45,850 What Engine Is Found in the 2026 Ford Ranger? The Ranger offers a standard turbo 2.3-liter four-cylinder generating 270 horsepower, which gives you plenty of muscle for regular driving and standard hauling tasks. If you want more speed, the optional twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6 delivers 315 horsepower and includes standard 4WD. (The base four-cylinder features either RWD or 4WD.) Both engines mate with a 10-speed automatic. The 2025 Ranger gets 21 mpg city and 26 highway with RWD and 19 city and 26 highway with 4WD. When properly configured, the Ranger's four-cylinder setup can tow up to 7,500 pounds and haul 1,788 pounds in the bed. The V6 keeps that same 7,500-pound towing max, though the payload limit drops to 1,542 pounds. Is the 2026 Ford Ranger's Cabin Comfortable? The Ranger's interior is impressively plush, thanks to its quality trim pieces, simple layout, and spaciousness for even the tallest occupants. The vertical center screen gives the dash a clean, up-to-date look, and Ford kept its real knobs and buttons for climate control. Passengers in the back seat get a three-person bench with ample legroom for a midsize truck, and smart storage spots help maximize the space. Along with the standard glovebox, there is an extra shelf and a hidden compartment right above it, deep door pockets, and storage bins under the back seats that are perfect for stashing tools and other small bits and bobs. Top Tech in the 2026 Ford Ranger Every Ranger comes loaded with straightforward, helpful tech for everyday life. The XL and XLT models feature a 10.1-inch center screen and an 8.0-inch digital instrument cluster, while stepping up to the Lariat adds a larger 12.0-inch center display and a 12.4-inch driver screen (and you can option those larger displays on the XLT too).

The Ford Explorer is the pick for a reliable family SUV because it tackles daily driving duties without breaking a sweat. Whether you need to haul the kids, pack in a bunch of gear, or just want an SUV that can take on weekend trails, the Explorer hits all the marks. Let's break down the details of one of the car company's most popular SUVs here. Inventory Contact Key Takeaways As of 2026, the Ford Explorer's trims start at just over $40K.

The Explorer's 2026 changes revolve around the new Tremor trim.

A 10-speed automatic transmission handles shifting duties for all. Rear-wheel drive is standard, though you can upgrade to all-wheel drive on any trim. When configured with the Class III Towing package--complete with a receiver hitch, wiring harness, and trailer sway control--the Explorer maxes out at a 5,000-pound towing capacity, making it perfect for pulling small boats, pop-up campers, or utility trailers. The Explorer's Real-World Fuel Efficiency The rear-wheel-drive four-cylinder achieves 20 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. Choosing all-wheel drive drops that highway estimate down just a bit to 27 mpg. Comfort and Connectivity Inside the 2026 Ford Explorer The Explorer's upgraded soft-touch surfaces, fresh interior color schemes, and streamlined dash layout from the '25 refresh make it a winner in comfort. And while the third row is ideal for smaller passengers, the sliding second-row seats make climbing back there a breeze. The infotainment system is one of the Explorer's major selling points. Every trim level features the Ford Digital Experience interface, a 13.2-inch touchscreen with integrated Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and native support for Google and Amazon applications. When the Explorer is safely parked, occupants can stream video content, play digital games, or surf the web using Google Play. To keep everyone's devices charged, you'll find eight USB ports across all three rows, alongside three traditional 12-volt plugs. The vast majority of the lineup features a premium 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system, leaving only the entry-level Active with the baseline audio. Is the 2026 Explorer the Right Choice for You?

If you've been eyeing the Ford Maverick, you already know it's a small truck that punches well above its weight. Don't expect any big surprises from the Mav this year; what you will get is a strong engine lineup, great fuel economy, top towing and hauling capability, and a comfortable, high-tech cabin. The Mav also has won MotorTrend's prestigious "Truck of the Year" honors. Here's everything you need to know about the 2026 Ford Maverick! Inventory Contact Key Takeaways As of June 9, 2026, Mav trim pricing ranges from $29,990 to $43,270. There are no major changes to the Maverick following 2025's full update. The Maverick can tow up to 4,000 pounds when properly equipped. Changes for the Ford Maverick in 2026 The Maverick got its big styling overhaul last year, so '26 is more about fine-tuning than reinventing the wheel. The optional turbo four-cylinder is now offered with FWD (though that combo is limited to the base XL trim). Classic blue Ford ovals replace blacked-out Ford logos exclusive to the Tremor and Lobo trims. And Marsh Gray and Orange Fury Metallic join the color palette, while Ford retires Eruption Green and Desert Sand. MSRP* for 2026 Ford Maverick trim levels is: XL: $29,990 XLT: $32,490 Lobo Standard: $37,775 Lariat: $39,935 Tremor: $42,490 Lobo High: $43,270 Ford Maverick Drivetrains, Towing Prowess and Fuel Economy The Maverick gives you two solid powertrain options to choose from. The standard 2.5-liter hybrid delivers 191 horses through a CVT and comes standard with FWD or available AWD for extra traction. The 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder jumps that number up to 250 horsepower; it mates to an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive as standard. The off-road-oriented Lobo trim also gets something new this year--a seven-speed automatic with paddle shifters for a noticeably sportier, more responsive feel. Both engines hold their own regarding capability, with 1,500 pounds of payload and 2,000 pounds of towing right out of the box. Opt for the towing package, and that number climbs to 4,000 pounds, which is plenty for a small boat, lightweight camper, or whatever you like to haul. Fuel economy is where the Mav really shines. Its FWD hybrid version gets up to 42 mpg city and 35 mpg highway, while the AWD hybrid comes in at 40 city and 34 highway. The turbo four-cylinder is no slouch either, with 22 city and 30 highway. Interior Comfort and Tech of the 2026 Maverick Every Maverick comes as a crew cab, so four doors and back seat room for adults are always part of the deal. Even the base XL is well-equipped with remote keyless entry, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, and driver lumbar support. Move up to the XLT or Lariat to add things like dual-zone climate control, power front seats, and ambient lighting. The 4.5-foot bed allows you to drop the tailgate to swallow about 18 sheets of plywood flat. A 12-volt outlet is standard in the bed, and you can add a 110-volt outlet if you need to run tools or charge equipment on the job. Every 2026 Maverick features a 13.2-inch touchscreen with Ford's latest software, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. Options include SiriusXM, a wireless charging pad, and a B&O sound system that does a great job filling the cabin. How Can You Get into a 2026 Maverick? The Maverick lineup is in our showroom now! If you've been waiting for a small truck with genuine power, great efficiency, real-world utility, and a comfortable ride, the Mav has all that and more!
