Problem with the Ford Maverick is that it’s only available in crew cab with a 4.5 ft bed, which is really a sub-par configuration if your priorities are in moving stuff rather than people.

And no 4wd option on the hybrid.

Roof rack with the back half mounted to the bed or hitch can mitigate that to an extent. That's how I haul oversized stuff in a pre-2011 Ranger.

Hah, I once built a roof rack like that with my dad for a standard cab pickup to carry kayaks.

Works great for occasional use, but still really sub-optimal to have an extra row of unused seat rather than bed space to put stuff if your primary use of the truck is to carry stuff in the bed.
