| I don't get this attitude. Everyone criticizes auto companies for not making a small truck anymore, and then Ford comes out with the Maverick and then you say it doesn't have enough towing capacity. It can tow 4000 lbs. That covers a whole lot of use cases. It also has a payload capacity of 1500 lbs which is quite respectable for a small truck. As for FWD vs. RWD, who cares? How does that affect your ability to move things around? Really the only thing I think you can ding it for is the small bed. It used to be that trucks this size would have a regular cab or an extended cab with the two tiny side facing seats, and they would have a longer bed. With the tailgate down you can still move sheet goods with a Maverick though. |

| Ford calls it a truck.
Ask a random person on the street, and they'll say it is a small truck. I've seen plenty of people in working clothes driving them, carrying working tools and such. |

| It's a car with a bed, not a truck.
Also called a Ute, which is fine! It avoids the weight and height that makes trucks dangerous vehicles to operate in a society. |

| A BMW i3 is a body-on-frame rear-wheel-drive vehicle, but I don't think anyone would call it a "truck without a bed, not a car". |

| > It's got the same towing capacity of an older Kia Sportage. How often do you need to pull 2000kg? |
