Hi all

I have a stock wrangler sports, like it's offroading capability though never truly do rock climb, but very confident in trail and field.
How is Maverick offroad capability, can't expect wranglers, but only handle bad road and dirt trail.

Another thing is towing camper, wrangler tow very well, but kind of bouncy and shaky. What about Maverick.
Any one had both cars can tell the comparison of the two.

I've had Wranglers and 4WD is different than AWD. I've seen one Maverick guy post he got stuck on a paved road with 5 inches of snow and others saying no problem. The Maverick is limited to small towing unless you go ecoboost and 4K. That package gives extra cooling, gearing, transmission, braking capability.
AWD on the Tremor and FX4 off road packages is good if you respect the lower ground clearance and have AT tires. I've been on a lot of mountain back trails and forest roads in my Wranglers with no problem. I will be more cautious on them with my AWD and will stay away from steep trails with loose rock, deeply rutted or snow deeper than 4 or 5 inches with my non-Tremor/FX4.
