    Maverick, your are looking good for your age!

    Maverick caught a lot of people's interest back then, and is still catching their attention today!!! (ie. my experience a lot of positive comments all the time!!) I was reading an older article about the Maverick and it said that some dealers were so overwhelmed with public demand when the Maverick was introduced, that some could not keep them on hand and that people wanted one so bad that they were trying to buy the display car! While some people had to wait 2-3 months to get one! Not a bad start! Happy 34th Birthday Maverick!!

    My local newspaper posts events that occur each day in history. They mentioned that the Mustang was introduced this day in 1964. Can you believe that they didn't mention the Maverick?

    good catch on remembering the birthday.

    I am happy the Mav is not as famous or as trendy as the mustang.

    Gives us something special
