This is a annoyance about the Maverick. The bed is 6” too short.

On my way to the dump to rid some yard waste. A cheap ole garden tool fails to fit. Jeez Ford, if one of the target users is homeowners, garden tools should be a consideration.

1 - The bed is over 6' long diagonally, put the tool in that way.
2 - Leave the tailgate open.
3 - Get a shorter garden tool.

Or just enjoy that the Maverick checks all the other boxes.

Angle it across the bed.....

bed length – 54.4 inches
bed width – 53.3 inches (42.6 in. at wheelhouse)

Right triangle calculator tells me you have 76.15937 inches to work with if you angle the tool.

I wish this was sarcasm but I'm afraid you're being serious. lol... It's a baby truck, not a full size. Just put the tool diagonally

Sounds like the garden tool is 6" too long.
