Fairly substantial price increase. I will admit a major draw of this small truck was the affordability. I think some trims are up as much as $2k. Wonder what kind of effect this will have on demand and the order banks.

The base price for a minivan (Toyota Sienna) is like $36k, almost $10k more expensive than the latest Maverick pricing. Siennas also aren’t really any easier to find either, they’re very in demand by young families right now.

Agreed with a lot of your prospective on functionality and I’m hopeful minivans are making a comeback as they’re much more practical than the half ton or full size pickups people are buying.

That is fair, however where in the heck are you going to find a base Maverick?

You’re not unless you order it. Although I suspect you might see better availability starting this model year.

I think the point here is that the Maverick is quite a bit cheaper than a minivan. I think a more fair comparison, speaking of price only, is a half ton like a Tacoma or Ranger.

But I wholeheartedly agree with your point that many people would be better off with a minivan than a truck. A minivan provides the functions needed for most people much better than trucks do, and come with better MPG and a comfier cabin.
