Hey guys, back with another Maverick camping excursion.
4 nights, 1,200 miles and lots of national parks!

Zion national park, Grand Canyon, horseshoe bend, Mojave national preserve and lake mead national recreation center!

I’m also starting to make videos and do more posts about the Maverick and my set up. If anyone is interested in seeing more adventures and maverick off-road content you can find it on my instagram @matteus.degasperis

I wanted to do a trip out lining some of the more scenic spots of the CO river. Our first night we didn’t quite make it so we ended up stoping by Zion Utah and setting up camp, we then made our way to Alstrom point on lake Powell (absolutely stunning) the next day we went to the horse shoe Bend and the Grand Canyon. We ended up camping on the southern rim of the Grand Canyon. The third day we set up camp by lake mead.

The maverick has been handling everything I through at it excellently. Loving the little thing. Let’s see how long she holds up. So far I have 25k miles on her in less than a year!

Yeah the rear is sagging a good amount, it’s not maxed out like I can still feel that there is uptravel left but it’s not great. Airbags coming soon. There’s is roughly an extra 500 lb compared to stock

that's exactly what I'd do - try the airbag kit, which I'm sure will help, and see what offroad/softroad performance is like.

Looks like a very fun trip! Thanks for sharing all the pics and what the MAV is capable of! I can’t wait to get mine out there! You have used every inch of space!

Seems like an awesome trip. Good looking truck, I am partial to the Tremor version too. Wish I had the sort of national parks around me here, but maybe someday I can get out there. Looks like you have some Toyo tires...mind sharing details (model, size, any issues with rubbing, etc.)? How do you like them compared to the factory Falkens in terms of road noise and handling different climate conditions?
