This is awesome. Any concern about the attachment points scratching the paint?

Might be getting this for Christmas! Mom was looking over MTC for ideas what to get me ( last year got a Ford Maverick waterbottle, didn’t fit anywhere in Truck and a Maverick T shirt that did fit )
So, Mom just the tent already have a mattress that works.

My only issue camping with my truck was all the clicky click clicks all night. Such a noisy little guy.

If I got one. My wife and daughter would make me sleep in it. We are at grandma's house for Thanksgiving and sharing a bedroom. The snoring is getting a bit much.

Very Nice!!! Thanks for posting this, can't believe how inexpensive the set up is!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!

Hope this is helpful to those looking for a "turn-key" solution for truck-camping in the Mav!

I've been seeing these tents but wasn't sure if this would work. Thanks for doing the hard work for us and trying this out!

Put the keys in a folded over mylar bag like from potato chips. It blocks the proximity effect of moving with the keys.

I have a wife and two kids, and I’m planning to cram us in a Maverick with a tent and cracked open windows Maverick!
I feel that this tent almost fits, but the maker does not have an actual size for the Maverick. I suppose if Ford Motor Company and Maverick Truck Club were to request/lobby Napier or another maker there could be a more precise fit. (Also an annex for a ground extension aft of the lowered tailgate could be a popular item.) These might even make it to the Maverick build site, a win for all. Imagine DIY'ers using the power outlet for a laptop or screen sitting on the tailgate as a credenza when not sleeping on the bed, etc.
Come on tent makers, let's do this!

credenza, lol my grandma used Davenport and Kelvinator as well.
Rarely used words anymore.

Those were brand names of a sofa and refrigerator respectively, now defunct. Italian nobility used to have their meals tasted for poison on a side board for "credence". A credenza is still a specific style of such. One could also use the tailgate to sit, eat, cook, or as a desk typically under a canopy, "tailgating" in very current usage. Now I'll go have a beer on the Divan.

Looks great! Would it still work with a roll-up tonneau cover?
