Do you tow with your Maverick?

[Jah.]

No . haven't had the need but glad I have the ability to tow . Personally wouldn't own a truck that didn't have a hitch .

In this article, Ford's Alan Clarke is quoted : "Less than 25% of Maverick owners have towed a single time in the life of the vehicle."

Presumably the statement is based on telematic data, but I wonder if it reflects MTC members' usage.

If I have to tow at night, I move the license (2 screws) & remove the hitch cap/bracket to free up the hitch.

Love the old school blur technique.

13' Scamp camper or an Aluma 5x8 utility trailer loaded with anything from 1/3 cord firewood to a motorcycle.
18- 24 mpg typical. Nowhere near the 4k limit.

My Maverick is “Painters Tape” Blue….matching “blur”

I was going to pick up a few freebies last weekend and had a trailer reserved, but some were canceled so I canceled my reservation. I kind of regretted it as I'm still used to my old big trucks and often overestimate payload. I'm planning on another trip in a couple of weeks and will try again with a trailer.

I tow once a month. I have to cross a mountain range to most destinations. Avg 13mpg towing 30mpg normal. Trailer weighs 2,380 # dry. Added airlift 1000 bags to help with sag. Pulls great very little sway.

Not towing yet but are looking for a travel trailer in the next 6 months. Will then be towing on a regular basis.

I had a trailer on it on day 3. Never had a truck before, so I put it to work. I regularly tow for firewood, machines and nicknacks.

Yup

I've towed probably a dozen times in the last 6-8 months, preparing for and executing a multi-state move. My last tow was the empty trailer though, and I sold it last night. So if I tow again, it'll be a U-haul or a friend's trailer.

The Maverick performed very well when towing BTW, executing the big climb and descent on I-75 just south of the KY/TN border. Even with a rather large load, it handled it with ease.
