We’ve all been on a test drive before.
A quick loop. Some small talk. A voice in the passenger seat pointing out features you didn’t ask about.
That works for a lot of people.
But it’s hard to figure out how a car actually fits your life when someone else is driving the experience.
That’s why we do things a little differently at Maverick.
We call it a solo test drive… and it’s exactly what it sounds like.
You take the car.
You drive it on your own.
No salesperson in the passenger seat (unless you ask for one).
Here’s why we believe a little space behind the wheel makes all the difference.
—————————————-
Picture This…
You pull out of the lot. Coffee in the cupholder. Heater just right. Music off.
No small talk. No sales pitch. No one watching you adjust the seat four times until it finally feels right.
Just space.
And for the first time, you’re not wondering what the salesperson thinks – you’re wondering what you think.
How do you think driving with that kind of space would change your decision?
When The Drive Is Actually Yours
In many car-buying experiences, the test drive is part of the sales pitch.
There’s usually a route.
A conversation designed to keep things moving.
A sense that the next step is already lined up.
That works for a lot of people.
What we’ve noticed is that when space is part of the drive, decisions come into focus faster… and more important to us, they feel better long after.
Not because the car was explained better.
But because people finally got to listen to themselves.
What Space Changes
With fewer voices in the car, people naturally:
- Let the engine stretch its legs
- Notice mirrors, sightlines, and comfort without narration
- Sit with a quiet moment and see how it actually feels
- Say the honest things out loud: Is this too big? Too small? Do I like this?
It’s calm.
It’s unforced.
And it lets the right answer surface on its own.
When Real Life Shows Up
A good test drive helps you tune into the details that matter to you.
With space, people start testing real-life questions:
- Does the dog crate, mountain bike, or stroller actually fit?
- Is the third row built for adults… or adults who enjoy traveling in a yoga pose?
- Does the lumbar support still feel good ten minutes in?
- Will the Costco run fit in one trip?
Sometimes it includes a quick Starbucks stop… because that’s real life.
And if you need more time?
Take it to your partner on their lunch break.
Park it in your garage.
Run a few errands.
Good decisions feel easier when time isn’t the thing driving them.
If You Want A Guide
Some people prefer an advisor along for the drive… and that’s always an option.
If you want help testing features, freeway driving, or talking things through as you go, we’re happy to join.
(Plus, it’s a solid excuse for us to avoid fighting the printer back inside.)
You choose the experience.
We’ll support the way you decide best.
Why We Leave Room On Purpose
A great test drive doesn’t push you toward an answer.
It gives you room to find it.
That’s why we build in space instead of urgency.
Because when people choose a car with clarity, they trust that choice – not just that day, but for years to come.
Whenever you want to take that kind of drive, we’ll be here.
