Relatively simple turf repair jobs but needed a yard of dirt, couple bags of cover and some seed. Goose took it like a champ, gotta give her credit. Exactly the kind of use this City truck was built for. Threw it in tow/haul mode and away I went. The powertrain really didn’t blink an eye at the weight. Sure she revved higher than normal but there was plenty of chooch, even up smaller hills. I was ginger careful on the brakes but those held well too. Only challenge really was that suspension and squat. Admittedly a yard of topsoil is right at, if not over the 1500lb limit (depending on how wet it is) though so all in all, job well done Goose.

I’m old and now decently whooped, someone pass the beer

Cleaned up the bed with broom, then leaf blower, and finally power washer. Those really made cleanup easy. The junk between tailgate and bed was indeed the most annoying portion but still NBD
Here's another dirty one. Bulk is MUCH cheaper the bags.

Yup, use it like a truck. Couple tailgate sratches but it's black and touches up easy. Couple loads of mulch. Plus other stuff. Had to come in at an angle so the bucket would almost fit without too much overflow falling out.

I like the idea of backing the truck to where the mulch is needed.
I hate double handling that much mulch.
Good use of a truck.
Mine should be here in July.

Then went out and picked up an also new to us corner desk. The wife will be the primary user, hence how this was able to occur on Mother's Day.

This truck makes Facebook marketplace finds a LOT easier due to not having to mess with renting and towing trailer.

Hey there, fellow Maverick enthusiasts!
I just had the most epic adventure with my hybrid, and I couldn't resist sharing it with you all. I embarked on a mission to bring home a whopping 2 tons of rock (4 trips) from Home Depot, and let me tell you, this little truck handled it like a true champ!
  • Trips: 4 to Home Depot
  • Load: Half ton of rock, flooring, tools
  • Max Payload: First trip with a passenger
  • Mode: Tow/Haul for max power
  • Fuel Efficiency: Impressive 28 MPG with max payload
  • Other trips averaged a jaw-dropping 38 MPG
  • Ride Quality: Smooth sailing all the way!
  • Power: Maverick delivered plenty when needed
  • Tailgate Warning: New chip = watch out for rocks getting jammed between the bumper and gate!
  • Dash: Unfortunately, no snapshot, but it's amazing!
If this baby stands the test of time, mark my words, it'll go down in history as my all-time favorite vehicle. The Lariat Hybrid has won my heart, and I can't wait to see what else it's capable of.
So, fellow Mavericks, let's share our tales of adventure and conquest! If you've got any rock-hauling stories or Maverick experiences to share, I'm all ears. Let's rock this forum with our Maverick love!

Stay adventurous

I'm glad that you got so much done, and area happy, but I gotta ask: Is there no bulk supplier of rock/mulch/etc? in your area? For that much rock, you would likely have paid a a lot less than the cost of the bagged rock at the big box stores. Last time I hauled cedar mulch, I think the cost for a 1/2 yard was slightly less than for 5 40-lb bags at Home Depot.

Oh dude, would have saved me like $200 but I was trying to get it done the same day and thought I only need 30-40 bags. tossing bags from the bed of the truck to the hole where the mav could get but a dump truck couldnt seemed worth the time saved in pulling a wagon across the property. In hind site, it would have been much cheeper and probably quicker to have done it a wagon at a time.
Also, fun fact, a hot tub can hold more than 2 tons of rock

I bought a yard swing for at the cabin and need to haul it up there. I was skeptical if I could get it in the box and close the tonneau cover. After taking the longer poles out of the box I managed to fit in in.
What has anyone else squeezed into their box? Has anyone actually tried the 17 sheets of 3/4” plywood that the brochure claimed could be done?

Keep checking back to this thread and amazed at what we use these little trucks that can. The truck bed is soooo useful in a vehicle that gets over 40 miles to the gallon and is such a pleasure to drive. Can’t say enough about how useful the Maverick has been to us.
