I almost pulled the trigger on the 1st year Maverick special they had. Then I thought 1st year may have issues and held off. I hear there pretty decent though Toyota was supposed to come out with a small truck this year for under 25K but Toyota says there so busy they can't squeeze it in.
My wife bought a first year Maverick, waited 6 months for it. 6 months later she wrecked it and totaled it. The insurance gave her more than she paid for it. For the time she had it was a good truck.
