Safety should be compared by exact year and trim.

NHTSA stars below are loaded from the official 5-Star Safety Ratings API. Ranges mean tested drivetrains or body variants differ. IIHS uses a separate crashworthiness and crash-avoidance test program.

Loading official NHTSA tests and recalls…

Star ratings apply only to the shown model year and tested variant. They cannot be transferred automatically to another year, trim, body style or build date. Recall count is model-level; use the VIN lookup to see whether a specific vehicle has an unrepaired recall.

THE SHORT ANSWER

Choose Maverick Hybrid if…

DIY homeowners who still commute. The open bed handles garden and renovation runs without the fuel profile of a full-size truck.

Watch: Payload, towing and AWD availability for the exact configuration.
THE OTHER CASE

Choose F-150 if…

Rural property work and frequent towing. Capability and service availability can make sense when the household truly uses the bed or tow rating.

Watch: Parking, fuel, tires, insurance and buying more truck than needed.
