the way it slopes at the back, I think so. You probably won't have an issueLooks great! Would it still work with a roll-up tonneau cover?

Sleeping with your head toward the tent door?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.
Nope, head towards the cab, feet at the tailgate.Sleeping with your head toward the tent door?
Perfect, I prefer the bears to eat me feet first.Nope, head towards the cab, feet at the tailgate.
Napier's reply above is hilarious, this tent fits perfectly on the Maverick.
Would also love to see some pics of that Saygogo SUV mattress inside the tent setup.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!

Hope this is helpful to those looking for a "turn-key" solution for truck-camping in the Mav!
keep that key fob in a signal blocker.My only issue camping with my truck was all the clicky click clicks all night. Such a noisy little guy.
Wow, thanks for this info. I was wondering why my maverick sounds like a transformer when I get close to it, even 30 minutes after getting out and locking it.Put the keys in a folded over mylar bag like from potato chips. It blocks the proximity effect of moving with the keys.
This is awesome. Any concern about the attachment points scratching the paint?
I can see that being the SXT, but costing more. I ordered the set up the OP has. I’m betting it will be fine.Here’s a reply I received from Napier on 11/18/22:
Thank you for contacting Napier! Unfortunately, at this time none of our tents are compatible with the Ford Maverick. We are however currently in the prototyping process of creating one that should be available early next year (late February is what its looking like at the moment)! Keep an eye on our socials for a release date. You can find us online at @napieroutdoors.
Very helpful! You did all the leg work, thank you. Now I just need a truck....14 months wait so far.Hey folks!

the clips on the end of the straps are plastic. No effect at all. Believe me, I ain't doing anything to mess up the paint on my very first new vehicle!How does paint on side of bed under straps stand up? Looks like it would mark up the side of vehicle
