While pickup trucks are typically known for their robust cargo space, sporting massive six to eight-foot-long beds, such isn't always the case for smaller trucks. Take, for example, the Ford Maverick. With a slight unibody construction and a 4.5-foot-long bed, cargo capacity isn't the compact truck's strong suit.
Fortunately, a vehicle's cargo capacity isn't rigid—it's expandable. At RealTruck, we offer countless rack systems and accessories to boost the Ford Maverick's cargo capacity, including our selection of high-end roof rack systems from manufacturers like Go Rhino®, Yakima, and Thule.
If you're unsure which roof rack system will best suit your needs, you're in luck. Stay tuned for RealTruck's comprehensive overview of the best Ford Maverick roof racks.
While roof racks are often thought to be exclusive to passenger cars and SUVs, they can be installed in all vehicle classes, including trucks.
Regardless of the vehicle a roof rack is installed on, the same benefits apply. Roof racks capitalize on the previously unused space above the passenger cabin, enabling the storage and transportation of goods above the roof so as not to encroach on the limited cargo space in the bed.
Additionally, roof racks can provide mounting provisions for off-road lighting, kayaks and canoes, bikes, and just about anything else you'll need for your next adventure.
At RealTruck, we carry a wide selection of roof racks for the Ford Maverick, ranging from basic crossbars to beefy platforms and baskets. Check out some of our experts' top selections, offering intuitive installation options, stylish designs, and impressive build quality.
