I'm curious to see what kind of options for carrying things like canoes and ladders become available. My old '89 Toyota (6' bed) had a rack on the topper, which was nice. But I'm not sure whether I'll put a topper on my Maverick, since the bed is so short.

There are slots for a roof rack. A rack up front plus a hitch mount extender would work great. You could possibly build a rear rack frame out of wood or wood and pipe.

I would like to make a rack by myself. It will be fun. However, I am afraid that this kind of rack could be noisy on the highway.

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone! Some nice ideas and options there. Much appreciated.

Does anyone know if the Maverick will come with roof side rails or not?

I just put an extender into the hitch and hauled a 17’ canoe, keel down, in the bed. Plenty of tie down points in the bed.
