[Dave O]

I'm eagerly awaiting a Demco solution too. They promised to call me when they have one ready.

They promised they would call me first

I decided to go with RoadMaster after numerous communications over the last month or so, prior to placing my order last Tuesday RoadMaster provided me with all the instructions and photo to have a successful installation

I ordered the new base plate for my 2025 Lariat AWD Hybid along with a new RoadMaster Nighthawk Tow Bar, lighting kit and charge wire they will ship everything March 21st and I have the installation scheduled with a local mechanic that has assisted me with past baseplate and wiring installs so I don’t anticipate any issues…

Blue Ox had a similar problem on my 2014 Jeep Cherokee. Failures on the road resulted in a redesign. Blue Ox denied replacing the original. That’s when I said “never again will I buy Blue Ox”

I still have a BlueOx set up on my 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ but it uses adapters that attaches to my RockHard Bumper very simple no baseplate I love it, however for my 2025 Maverick Lariat AWD Hybrid it was a no brainer to go with RoadMaster being BlueOx is not the company it once was and at the time I made the purchase I didn’t like the Demco solution or price plus they didn’t have a finish product available for sale…
