: Howdy, i recently became interested in the Mavericks and now the opportunity has arisen for me to buy one. I was just wandering how reliable and easy to work on they were. The model i was looking at is a 1970. Thanks for any info. P.S. If you reply and emial would be optimal but a post will work just as good. Thanks

Can't comment on a '70, but my experience with the '76 Comet (essentially a Maverick sold by Mercury) has been pretty good, to the tune of over 185,000 miles with no major problems. As the other posts have said, a lot depends on how well the car was maintained over the years--don't forget, even the newest ones ('77) are now 22 years old.
