One more thing — the 2022 Ford Maverick is the only standard full hybrid pickup truck in America, thanks to its 2.5-liter FHEV engine. It’s not there to trick you; the Maverick’s base payload is over 300 pounds more than the Tacoma, which is an important distinction. Both have reputable available utilities like AWD and five selectable drive modes. The EPA-estimated mpg city rating of the Maverick stands at 40 mpg in the city, while the Tacoma only gets 18. Not only does the Maverick help save you gas, but check out the MSRP on both vehicles for a startling difference. For big-time savings upfront and later down the road (PLUS a truck that doesn’t sacrifice efficiency for power), trust the 2022 Ford Maverick.
