Hey folks!

I know it's a little late in the season for this, so my apologies for not posting earlier! I have found the perfect truck bed tent for the Maverick as well as a perfectly fitting air mattress! So far I've used the tent & mattress about 5 times over the summer and it has been perfect for myself and my girlfriend. She is a little bit new to "roughing it" and this has helped her enjoy camping a bit more from the security of the truck (especially in bear country!). It's kinda nice to have metal walls on 3 sides and be off the ground, I gotta admit!

Anyway these fit perfect. The air mattress comes with a pump and everything, & even some inflatable "pillows"! We turned it 180 from how it would sit in a larger truck and the cutouts just happen to fit perfectly to the Maverick's wheelwells. The tent can be set up by 1 person in about 10 minutes.

Here are the links, and I'll post some pics below!

Thanks! Just bought both...just in case I hit the everglades camping this winter. Better than tent on the ground.
Awesome!! You're gonna like these. Plus, any purchase thru my links helps my YouTube channel a tiny bit. Won't cost you a penny more, but it'll cost Jeff Bezos a few! 🤣

Pretty cool to get a response from the Ford Official account!
The Maverick has been great! Picked it up 12/01/21 - probably one of the first couple hundred owners nationally.
I wanted a do-it-all vehicle that focuses on fun and utility, and the Maverick delivers! In these photos I had found a private lake spot deep in the backwoods. I took it down logging trails to get there that I definitely had second thoughts about, but it handled everything like a little mountain goat! Having the tent and mattress made it a portable hotel on wheels, allowing us the ultimate freedom to experience nature!

I want to confirm that this is the "Compact Short Bed 5'-5.2" size, correct ?

Or is it the "Full Size Short Bed 5.5-5.8" ?

Compact Short Bed.
The link I posted was the exact one I got, in the correct Compact Short Bed configuration. I unfortunately paid like 30 bucks more for mine, but I'm happy for others that the price has come down a bit since then.

Oh, also I forgot to mention this above, and this is probably the single most important feature of this tent: It is a fully enclosed tent with a floor.

Some other truck bed tents only cover the bed, lacking their own flooring material which means you're sleeping directly on the truck bed while also letting all kinds of bugs in.

Having a fully enclosed tent with a floor was a requirement for me, and this fits the bill perfectly.
