The Ford Free Wheeling Package was available for a wide range of Ford trucks, SUVs and vans. It featured bright body stripes that brightened the exterior. TestDrivenTV took the 2022 Maverick test vehicle and gave it custom stripes. This was inspired by the old-school look.

The Maverick’s light blue body is the ideal canvas for retro-colored stripes. It’s the same shade that you would see on a 1970s truck. It has white-painted steel wheels to match its aesthetic.

Vinyl stripes have a color gradient from beige to tan to white. They are also found on the truck’s hood. A white line on the grille and white Maverick letters on the tailgate are two other small touches.

According to the builder, the cost for the stripes was around $300. The builder designed the stripes in photoshop, and created paper patterns for each of them. It took several weekends to complete the installation. It was our goal to achieve a look similar to Ford’s factory.

The builder will install new wheels once the tires are worn out. The video shows that he plans to fit pieces with a modern aesthetic.

Ford is currently working to increase the Maverick’s range with new models. Recent spy shots suggest that a ST model, a sporty version of the Maverick, is in development. Modifications include dual exhaust outlets, wider front fenders and tweaks to improve powertrain cooling.

Ford applied for a mark on “Maverick Tremor”, in Chile. As of this writing, no similar filing has been made in the United States. Ford uses this moniker on mildly rough versions of its F-Series trucks .

Ford also owns a trademark on “Rattler.” It is possible that the company could use this name to design a model in an identical position to the Raptor’s in the F150 or Ranger lineups.
