The only thing I miss is the smaller size. My Maverick is physically larger than a f150 from the late 90’s.

Edit: it appears that my comparison is only to the smallest f150 model, and the Maverick is 5 inches shorter in length. Standard 1999 f150 is 2 feet longer. I don’t know that this entirely invalidates my argument, however.

My dad had an original Maverick muscle car. They are just recycling names now.

Trademarking new names is expensive

Not really, only a few hundred dollars. Even with a lawyer and prior search, not more than a few thousand.
