The short answer is that depends on if you have the 4k tow package or not. If yes, 4k. If not, 2k. If hybrid, 2k.

Do you not have your window sticker (if you were not the first owner) or original order details (if you were the original buyer)?

If you have a build in break controller and 7 pin connector you have 4k.

Good point and good way to check!

Yes. I have the sticker it doesn’t say anything on it about the towing capacity.

It has nothing obviously that’s why I’m trying to figure this out so I can get a tow package if it. Isn’t able to tow. Anything of. Importance I’m not gonna waste my money by putting a package on it

I have the 2022 XL-FWD EB which pulls 2000lbs. Sufficient for my needs of hauling a 1500lb cargo trailer, and still gets 18mpg keeping speeds between 65-70mph.

However, I did a bad thing today...

...and ordered a '24 Maverick XLT with the 4K tow package. It's time to do the Maverick "Hurry Up and Wait!" dance.

No, nothing is obvious to us other than what you tell us about.

Are you saying there is no tow hitch or electrical for a trailer?

On the Maverick I believe the tow package includes a brake controller, larger radiator, transmission cooler and different trans gearing. Don't think you can add a "tow package" and get the same kind of engine/trans protection as a factory 4k tow package. You may want to think about trading in if you must tow up to 4k pounds.

It sounds like you dont have the 4k tow package then. You can get a brake controller and 7pin hitch easily in the aftermarket. But the ford tow package also includes an extra trans cooler and a lower final drive ratio.

if it had a 7 pin n built in controller I’d had something to go by it literally has nothing. That’s why I’m trying to figure out what the capacity is so I know what to buy. For it I was told it could tow 4k when I bought it but nothing. Anywhere says that.

If I cant tow with it I’m def going to trade it in. I just don’t think imma be trading it in on another maverick.

We're trying to tell you that the capacity is 2k pounds. That's it. Nothing more.
