What have you fit in your Maverick?

[rch75]

You got your canoe dirty AND your truck dirty.

Daa-Amn @rch75 you got that thing squatting.
How did the steering feel?

You are at or probably above 1500# in the back.

Here's what 750# looks like with $100 air bags helping.

You can see the squat in the pics. It didn’t feel too bad.
I did ask the weight per Cu Yd, and it was like 1,100 or something under our 1,500lb rating.
Steering was remarkably good but I also kept it under 40mph and didn’t take any quick maneuvers to keep soil from blowing out. Except once it was first loaded I did hard break to make the pile shift forward in the bed. Worked great.

We meant to buy a loveseat but the photos were confusing and the price was only $50 different, luckily it juuuust fit under the folded tonneau and the rain decreased from pouring to drizzling.

Furniture dimensions 81” x 36” x 32”
Not sure about the box

Idk if I would have wanted to take it on the highway but we were fortunate to not have to go too far on surface roads.

What’s your tonneau cover of interface look like fully opened? Are you pressing the loads up against it? Do you loose a couple inches at the front of the bed?

This is the factory folded soft tonneau, it attaches to the rails, when fully folded like in these photos it’s maybe 20” or so? It would only interfere with a taller load than this box.

I’m not sure if that answers your question, I’ll take a photo later today

What have you managed to cram into the bed?

Ha ha.

Where is the thumbs down icon?

Tailgate is overloaded if the whole truck isn't.

Curious why you didn't take tonneau off?

 

[Beekeo]

At the time I didn’t know how easy it was to remove and it took so long to make the purchase that my two kids were tired and hungry.

Luckily it had about a quarter inch of clearance, but if didn’t fit under tonneau I would have had to figure it out!

Glad to see people aren't just using them for a grocery wagon. I will be using mine extensively at the ranch so I sure hope it can do the job.

 

[rch75]

Post some pics of that Maverick Home on the Range @Sage !

 

[SeniorLiz]

Has anyone hauled 1500 lbs in the Maverick bed? What was it like?

A 40 gallon water heater (in it's original carton)...

Sorry, I forgot to take a photo...
