Question:
Can you give me the weight of the base plate for a 2025 Hybrid Ford Maverick? I prefer the Roadmaster since Roadmaster is all I will use.

Hi Ben!
Good call sticking with Roadmaster. I definitely prefer them over other brands due to their construction and great track record. As to your question, the # RM87NQ base plate weighs right at 60 pounds, so it is on the heavy side (which is a good thing in my mind). Are you planning on doing the install yourself?
