What's your Maverick towing?❓Show & Tell

[RogueCheddar]

Thanks. Looks like a fairly roomy setup and still plenty light enough, when fully loaded, for a Maverick equipped with the 4K Towing package.

How do you find the drive when pulling it?

Pulls it really well, really stable. one of the sites we got to regularly is up on a plateau reached by a 10 mile climb of 8-9% at about 50mph, the truck sits at about 3000rpm and chugs its way up very nicely and never feels underpowered.

How many miles did you tow it? And how was the mpg?

I did about 3000 miles towing it over last summer, I've seen 19-20mpg averaged at 60-65mph cruises.

Towing no, but will have a 4 bike reciever rack attached most of the time. Then I need a kayak trailer or I’ll have to figure out how to haul them with it

I just hooked up the trailer for an outing tomorrow...

If you look at the left edge of my snowy photo, you can see my boat, hibernating under a gray tarp. The ice is usually off the local lake by mid-April.

I see all these posts about people wanting more towing capacity. However, rarely see a truck with a trailer other than a landscaper or a horse trailer and typically those will be Super Duty or whatever Chevy and Dodge sell.

So I’m wondering what the heck do people have that they want to tow with their Maverick?

The minimum 2K. I tow nothing.

Thats a 30 hp, we also have a bigger one with 40hp which does 40mph. Also, we use aluminum trailers only.

Perfect for Mavericks

Just staying local to tow small utility trailer for lawn and garden equipment and materials. A few DIY projects of building materials.

This is a good thread. Bringing it back to the life with a picture.

There's few things the Maverick is too much truck for. I think you've found one.
