I see most people here absolutely shitting on the SC and claiming the Maverick made it DOA. Let me make the case as a potential buyer of a $40k Limited SC.

I need a truck that can tow a fishing boat, small camper, and small trailer with an ATV. I've always had in my mind the minimum towing I could accept is 5k lbs. For arguments sake, lets say I'm okay with the 4k towing of the Maverick 2.0 Ecoboost. The MPG difference at this point is negligible since the hybrid is no longer an option.

Lets move on to the looks and interior. This will be my daily driver. I drive about 60 miles a day. Sometimes more. I want something that will be pleasant to sit in since it will be my only vehicle. Not saying the Maverick is bad, but the SC interior is a much nicer place to be.

Configure a fully loaded Maverick and you're at $35,000. So it's $6,000 more for many more features, more towing, and a 10 year/100k mile powertrain warranty.

Let me bring you to the biggest selling point for me: driving assistance features. Trucks are seriously lacking in this department. The Ridgeline has adaptive cruise, but without lane keeping assist or stop and go. The Ram has a stop and go, but no steering assist (also expensive). There are only 3 trucks that will have good driver assistance features: Santa Cruz, F-150, and Maverick (sort of, it doesn't have copilot assist). That's my three choices right now. There is not an F150 within 500 miles of me that has copilot assist under $52,000. That kind of just leaves the SC until presumably the next generation Ranger which hopefully has a hybrid that can tow 5k lbs.
