| Ford Maverick |
Practical from inside and out, the Ford Maverick is a smart
compact car with efficient engine.
Introduction:
The Ford Maverick is truly a classic 4x4 that, even though it was
only accessible from 1988 through 1994, is still going very strong today. The
Maverick was available in both short- and long-wheelbase models, along with two
or four doors, and basic wagons with petrol or diesel 4.2L engines. Obtainable
in both manual or automatic transmissions, and back- or four-wheel drive
configurations, there is actually a Maverick for every need.

The petrol engine is quite more powerful and supplies more torque than the diesel version, which, oddly enough, wasn't available as a turbo diesel. Another peculiarity is that while the 5-speed manual transmission was simple to handle, it really didn't reduce consumption of fuel over the 4-speed automatic.

Engine:
The Maverick came with a clever choice two engines, two
transmissions, and back- or four-wheel drivetrains. The 4.2L petrol i6 engine
put out almost 125kW and a shocking 325Nm torque at 2800 rpm, which, when mated
to the four-wheel drive system, makes a very efficient off-roading 4x4. The
5-speed manual (non-automatic) transmission doesn't save a whole lot in
consumption of fuel compared to the optional 4-speed automatic. The
naturally active aspirated 4.2L diesel i6 engine, on the other hand, was only
computed at 85kW and 264Nm of torque.

Mated to the 5-speed manual transmission, it is highly thirsty at around 20L/100km, which is very tough to justify in today's market. Possibly the best amalgamation that can be found is the 4.2L petrol i6 engine mated to a smart 4-speed automatic transmission and the four-wheel drivetrain. This combination really makes for good fuel consumption on the bitumen, effortless off-road handling, and even occasional rock crawling along with the transfer case's super low gear ratios.

Equipment:
All the variants of the Maverick were precisely equipped with
coil-sprung front and back suspension and limited-slip differentials, acute
power brakes and steering, and a rear-mounted anti-sway bar. Standard equipment
involved vinyl trim, cloth seats and floor coverings. Step up to the XL and
receive better instrumentation, including tachometer, water temperature, oil
pressure and voltage gauges. The audio system of the car added a cassette
player to the 2-speaker system, and the unique bucket seats were cloth covered
and trimmed.

Carpet comfortably replaced the base model's vinyl floor covering. The highest trim, the XLT, gained quite bigger wheels and tyres under the larger fender flares and efficiently powered by a new vacuum-operated back locking differential. Alloy rub rails were added, as well as tilt sunroof, power windows and locks and a 4-speaker audio system with power aerial.

The smart Toyota Land Cruiser, another full-size 4x4, is probably just as efficient off road as the Maverick, but it is equipped along with more of the niceties that make even around-town driving easy. The Land Cruiser is also just as well known for its longevity. To get all this, although, you'll pay a premium for the privilege. The Land Cruiser may be much more refined, but it doesn't compare to the lively style and attitude of the Maverick.
