: Don't try to compare your 300 i-6 to a Maverick 250 because they are NOT the same engine. Also; if you've ever driven a 460 equipped Ford, you'd know that that no six cylinder would have a snowball's chance in hell of hanging with it (at ANYspeed) and neither would a 302. People just need to stop trying to fool "mother nature". If you own a Maverick and you like it, then I don't care what engine it has, as long as you're happy with it. But don't make ridiculous statements like saying an inline six performes like a V-8 because it just shows ignorance...
Dear T.l.-
I have been a big fan of Mavericks since I first saw one in my hometown several years ago. I own a "72 Grabber, which I really love. When I first stumbled upon this page last year, I was excited to find others who also liked Mavericks. I have stopped visiting this page because of you, and now it has come to the point where I can't take it anymore and I must ask you...What is your problem, anyway? Why are you so opinionated and mean to people? I don't want to hurt your feelings or anything, I just want to know why you say such mean things to people. I find it disturbing how you can belittle the ideas of others so frequently, and you don't even feel bad about it. I realize that you think you know all there is to know about Mavericks, but my friends and I just laugh at you because all you sound like is a fool. I wish that you would just grow up or stop leaving unpleasant messages to people who truly love Mavericks. I am very sorry if I hurt you or offended you, I just want you to realize that sometimes you're just not a very nice guy. If you have anything to say in response, please leave your name, (not initials) and a personal e-mail address so that I may talk with you personally. I apologize to all others who had to read this. I just felt that it had to be addressed before other people's,(especially those who are new) feelings get hurt. This attitude makes this page look bad.
sincerely,
Sarah Atkins
