May have really found my new daily driver

Ridgeline is great until you see the pricetag, and the fact that if its loaded up and you get a flat you have to unload the bed to get to the spare tire. It's not mounted underneath. Still, I wont buy a japanese car, even if they have factories here. I just cant wrap my head around owning one. Maverick trips all the switches in my brain for what I need. Been option checking on their website. Looked into the hybrid battery thing, not too keen on that now. EcoBoost seems to be the way to go. Lariat without any extras except the weather tech type high sided floor mats for $135 it comes in at a tick over $28k they have a luxury package for it, but I don't need heated steering wheel, heated seats, plus a bunch of electronic nanny's. They have a spray in bedliner $450 available at the factory, but I prefer to have my local guy do an Armorthane liner, because it's less expensive, and he sprays it on thicker, plus it helps the local guy.
