+1 who in their right mind would use a maverick for actual work? Ford don’t even pretend to market to those folks.

Not if it doesn't have BRAT seats, it isn't!

It fits the niche that the ranger did 15 years ago. Same as the ranger having the capacity (except for bed) as the f150 the same time ago.
Think auto shops shuttling parts around, or needing to toss dirty parts in the back of the truck without needing the hauling capacity.
For people who want some towing, some cargo, and good mileage. I've seen a couple landscapers using them. If you're towing a single mower and some trimmers/blowers, it's a good deal, and you can still take it into town and not look like an idiot.
The Ranger is made again, but it's huge compared to the 90's ones.
And the current F150 is much bigger than one from 10 years ago, so even an older F150 would be smaller than the current monstrosities.
I mean, this isn't even hard to figure out: the F-150 is the best selling vehicle (not truck, but vehicle) in the U.S. for what, a decade or more?
