    Always wondered this since I never really looked at GTs before. If not, what's their biggest difference between the American and Mexican Mavs? Or is it just a fancy name?

    I didn't know they had Maverick GT's in Mexico. I know they have them in Brazil.:)

    Funny. I could have sworn you mentioned GT's and then asked the difference between American and Mexican Mavs.:biglaugh:

    As far as I know the difference in Mexican and American Mavs is that some of the Mexican cars had 289's and 4 speeds.:)

    I read it the same way Don did :hmmm:

    The Mavericks South of the border (how do you like that? :D) didn't have side marker lamps.

    The question asked, "what's their difference between the American and Mexican Mavs?" "Their" is referring to the Maverick GT. Thus I was asking what's the difference between the GT compared to the Mexican Mavs and the US Mavs. HA!:dance:
