We have so many stray cats plus our share of squirrels, raccoons and skunks in our neighbourhood that we rarely see rats or mice. They dont like my house or yard since I plugged in those electronic pest repellers either. Lol

Twenty five years ago todays Maverick was almost the same size as a single cab F150.

I would go for the 4K hybrid with tow package and aim for a trailer absolutely MAX 2,800lbs empty (if towing that much with potential for a lot of hilly terrain). I tow close to my max of 2,000lbs with my 23 hybrid FWD but only short distances and no issues at all so far.

Still loving my Maverick hybrid! Amazing gas MPG and tows my small trailer like a champ!

So you towed 3K with FWD hybrid? Thats impressive. No doubt the "official" towing limit of 2,000lbs is conservative but personal preference made me cautious and I waited for the right trailer to come up for sale since I started looking last summer. Finally found one that checks off all the boxes...

You have dozens of options. Just Google travel trailers under 3,000lbs. Here in Canada we have ProLite out of Quebec and Taylor Coach that have several trailers under that weight. There are plenty of US mfgs too. You shouldnt have any trouble finding one that suits your needs. For me, having...

16'. My hybrid tows it easily I dont even hit 50 percent power unless going up a very steep hill...then I just back it off and slow down a mite to keep it under that number. I switch out of tow/haul mode for brief periods when on flat terrain too.

Yep even my hybrid tows close to my 2,000lb max with my travel trailer easily. Even going up hills I dont hit 50% power.

The base model better be less than a Maverick XL and to address someone's comment about the Santa Cruz, it needs to look like a TRUCK. Not a mini El Camino. Lol

For sure. mostly sticking to 60mph maybe 65 tops. Less where hills are involved as necessary to try and stay below 50% power as much as I can. On long, flat runs I switch out of tow-haul mode and flip on cruise for a minute or two to give the generator a breather and to stretch and exercise...

I bought it right out of the gate since I plan to keep it for a decade or longer. Figured I'd rather pay for any future warranty repairs in today's $$ rather than inflated $$ several years from now.

Thanks for the tip. The camground we're going to first has a level site and is a pull-through site also.

Happy to say my FWD hybrid Maverick pulled this like a champ. Its a bit over 1,600lbs empty so will be going light on gear and not filling water tank to tow.

I bought this myself. When wired in correctly will it charge my 12v trailer battery and provide brake control?

For the hybrid its easy to suggest one theory. I like to coast up to stoplights and I slow down faster than a regular car without hitting my brakes. I give my brakes a few intermittent light taps when a vehicle is behind me to let them know Im slowing down.

Methinks ya gotta get your balls out of your wife's purse dude. LMAO!

My stock Continental tires only have 8,000 miles on them but you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between mine and a brand new one. So impressed that way. I'm averaging 42MPG and that includes several months of cold winter weather. One of our sales reps loaded 200' of conduit and two 24"...

I left my stock Continental tires on and find the ride to be pretty good. Keeping PSI at 35 rather than some people who bump it to 40 obviously smoothes things out a mite. If anyone here feels it's safe to go a few lbs lower in PSI please chime in

Pfft. Wonder how many millions Hyundai has to pay them to put that rubbish out? Lol
