It's not horrible. But beyond the lack of hitch, that might just be pushing the limits of the Maverick. Not counting my [redacted] pound frame.

I like the simplicity of their website and hate it at the same time. They have about 95% of the information and nothing more. But damn, that other 5% is what you need.

Interesting idea. Only issue is that because of its light duty nature there may not be proper structure beneath the bed to attach a 5th wheel hitch to. Then also 5th wheel hitches are much heavier than regular. I think this would be better suited for a Ranger that is loaded up with the whole family and a bunch of gear piled in it.

It's best to have too much truck than not enough.

Is the Maverick not at least as capable as a VW Bug?



Hahahaha, HRG
Pretty surw just like the CJ5 slide in campers those had like a 45mph speed limit.

Funny enough, I thought about the bug camper when I was looking at this thing. I agree with others have said. This likely works better with the Ranger that has an actual frame to attach the fifth wheel hitch to. The Maverick is, as I like to say, an Escape with a bed. The Maverick is capable, but it just barely meets the definition of a truck.

I absolutely love it!

Funny looking as hell but puts a smile on my face from ear to ear.

Thanks for sharing. Somehow I missed seeing that one before.
