Yep, I grabbed one. I'm thrilled.

That is one of the best work trucks I’ve seen. Thanks for taking the time to post the pictures and the information! And I guess that’s true about being able to reach everything from the ground - it’s one of the greatest things about the size of this truck. It’s great to hear things are going...

Hey, Mr Dirternie - how are things working out with your Maverick? Still good? I’m curious if you’ve made other changes or if things are still like you listed in this thread. Also, did you figure out the tailgate-mounted step?

Once you get this working, would you mind sharing here what you did to set it up? I'm considering something similar.

I do also stream music at times. For me it's the 90s :cool:

Like many of you, I was excited to mod my mav. I have done a lot of things, and I owe all of you a writeup of my rig with pictures and links. One of those mods was a stubby (or at least the Autozone knockoff). Sadly, the reception of one of the better radio stations in my area truly went...

I always love supporting members here, but just in case anyone is wondering, there’s a decent option on Amazon too: https://a.co/d/09bIWvfn

You all pretty much talked me out of it - and I appreciate it 😁

Yes - that's how I arrived at the "About $2k" cost - about 1,250 for the canopy and $752 for shipping.

Yep, I was going to say that instead of wrapping your head around it, wrap some tie-downs around it instead! :-) Totally kidding. Here's a quick fun video of someone hauling two mattresses, plus the bed parts: I would do as Sarah suggested and do another tie-down around the end of the...

Nice find.

Thank you so, so much. I knew I was going to need to come back to this forum to search for information like this. I appreciate it!

I wasn’t planning on doing anything special. I will be changing the oil when the truck says it’s time - although maybe a little before that point. I plan on doing it myself, and I’m looking forward to it.

Pretty decent. That’s what it will look like for highway miles, especially as new as it is. It might even improve over time. Nice getting great gas mileage, isn’t it?

This is 100% true. I have 3 pallets in my backyard.

125 metal chairs from a church to a park and back for a big activity. A bunch of guys cheered me on as I pulled away smoothly with the load. This is all the truck I need.

Chevy Avalanche that was over 20 years old. I was grateful to have it, but it was showing its age in many ways, and it was ultimately too big. I delayed making any change because, while I wanted something a LOT smaller, I still wanted a truck. The Maverick is fantastic.
