The waiting time for a Maverick is a year.

They never check me out in my 22 year old car.
Why can't they love me for me?

It's never the free markut's fault.
Who decides what vehicles can be imported into the USA?
You use paper maps?
Where can you buy them?
And you know what you're talking about?

Also how are you going to navigate when you're in a no-service area?
