Cool truck tech: Ford patents climate-controlled pickup bed
Fox News
Ford has received a patent for a pickup bed climate control system that connects the cargo area to the cabin and could be used on a truck like the Maverick.
The patent describes several ways to connect the cabin ventilation system to the bed of a unibody truck like the Maverick, although it doesn't mention the compact pickup by name.
Ducting in the front wall of the bed or the bed sides could provide cooled or heated air to the storage area through vents that could even be installed within a bed liner.
