    Hey all! New to the forum and going to use this to help find a Maverick of my own. Currently I own a 78 Chevy van and 78 El Camino, the Maverick will be my first Ford in years---yeah, I'm a GM partisan but Ford didn't last this long for no good reason!

    I'm a corrections officer with the state of Indiana though I live in Louisville KY. No stranger to old cars I've never driven anything made after 1982 until recently and the expense of repair, complicated technology, and blandness of the '04 Buick are killing me. So I'm hunting a smaller vehicle.
    I always loved the Maverick styling, and the 6cyls get good mileage, so I thought why not. Plus the cost of a Maverick isn't really all that high to begin with.

    It's a long commute so I'm hunting something I can drive every day. I never use AC, I don't need seats that adjust ten ways, and as long as I have an automatic trans, heat, and a radio I'm good to go.

    Any leads guys?
