  • Ford built 21 trucks, which are labeled "C-Pick Up" in the company's February sales report, at its factory in Hermosillo, Mexico, last month.

  • We think the new truck is the upcoming 2022 Maverick unibody pickup, which will share components with the Bronco Sport crossover.

  • Ford told dealers early last year that a new small pickup would start under $20,000, but we now think that's unlikely since the Bronco Sport starts just over $28,000.

Ford built 21 new small compact pickup trucks at its plant in Hermosillo, Mexico, last month, the same factory where the Bronco Sport is produced. This photo, leaked on the Maverick Truck Club blog, shows the pickup on the line in Mexico. We think the new trucks were the upcoming 2022 Maverick, a unibody pickup that'll share parts with the smaller Bronco.
