So how has your Maverick fared with Winter Storm Elliott?

0f - slushy/ice mess in Pittsburgh. I had an emergency errand I needed to do. Drove up this hill for fun on my way back. Worked just fine with Hybrid FWD. Traction control light on the whole way.

We had 14" of snow on Tuesday, didn't have to go anywhere that day thankfully. The next day I went to work, had no trouble getting around, even on roads that had not been plowed. Have Nokian WR-G4s on a Hybrid.

That is good to hear. Weather has been a bit rough here and make AWD tempting in the winter. Really like those MPGs you get.

Here in Evansville IN we only got two inches of snow, but it’s very cold (by our standards), with only a daytime high of 5 degF.

This is the first winter weather we’ve had here since I got my truck back in March. Made a couple trips to the bank and to my local Walmart about 3.5 miles. My Mav is FWD, and I put it in Slippery Mode and it did just fine.

How is the weather where you’re at and how is your Mav handling it?

Mine has been great to drive in snow and ice. Glad to have remote start on the Pass app because it took 30 minutes to warm up enough for me to open my door thanks to 3/8" of ice this morning.

What? They would never do that...

*Thinks back to "snowpocalypse", "snowmageddon", and whatever else the forecasters called a storm that turned out to be just about nothing*

Don't forget the "polar vortex" and this "bomb cyclone". They have to make people panic so they keep watching the weather forcast.

I didn't really expect any issues, never had a AWD/4X4 vehicle and always managed to get around. In 20+ years of driving I only got stuck in snow once, in an snowy/icy parking lot, and that was kind of my fault more than anything else. My job is somewhat temperture sensitive, so I don't go out in the worst conditions. No going out again today, temperatures are rising and we've been getting freezing rain since 7:30AM, Mavericks locked in an ice blanket right now.

I was at the park with my boy for over an hour this morning! I almost bothered a lady at the library who had a cyber orange hybrid. Gave her the thumbs up instead. First orange I’ve seen!

Who chooses the names? Why not another E name like Ellen? I think the name is to milquetoast. Except for an Dallas Footballer can’t think of any other person that named would equal the intensity of this mini ice age weekend.
