I found some heavy duty bars for the bed, billiebars.com they are rated at 1000lbs.
I have to find out if they will work with the folding Tonneau cover. I emailed them, they want pictures so I have some photos to take.
I've had a couple 70 mile trips to my son's. I loved the seats in my Jeep Wrangler they were perfect for me. The XLT with the 4FX package rides nice but the seats are not as nice as the Wrangler. I have a long trip in August (MN to CO) so I'll see how they treat me.
I broke my back in a car...
I'm 63 and I got my Maverick to go to the office, go Skiing and Bicycling.
I'm doing a trip to Colorado this summer. I travel a bit as I'm a ski patroller and take classes all over Minnesota, Wisconsin, and the UP of Michigan.
I live in Minnesota we have lots of ice.
4 wheel drive is great for getting going but stopping is in the skill of the driver. An "L" button is not the way to do it. Take a winter driving course and learn how to handle ice.
I got the folding tonneau from ford. Can I put a rack on the bed with that on.
I need a box for ski season, yea it's a few months away but I like to plan.
Thule swing away (I'll take and post pictures) 4 bike rack. I have had it since 2009 had it on my 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X. It was over $450.00 back then.
The new ones look a little different...

I have the hard folding tonneau, I'm a little weirded out by driving with it folded against the back window, can't see using the rear view mirror. I like it if it's folded twice and strapped down. Ordered mine October 31, 2021 it came on the truck 3/28/2022.
I have an Ender 3 Pro these things are not plug and play they take some configuration to get them to work, both physical and finding the right software.
I had a jeep with a 2 inch receiver so having a 2 inch receiver was important because I have a bike rack that swings away.
After swinging the bike rack out I found the knob (can't see it in the picture) on top of the bike rack touches the handle on the tailgate, for now I put a couple rags on...
