Quick update on the Alpha Trax tire chains. Even with all the snow I dealt with up in the mountains, I never had to use chains. My 23 XL Hybrid did just fine in moderate snow conditions with the factory tires and sensible driving. I almost put the Alpha Trax on once, just to see how they ran...

So, for the 2026 Ford Maverick, my wish list in order of priority includes: 1. AWD PHEV 2. Reconfigured Rear Seat* 3. Parking Sensors, Rear 4. Parking Sensors, Front 5. Rain Sensing Wipers * The rear seat would flip forward against the back of the front seats. The rear seat back would fold...

No, I haven't tried that yet. I was going the local locksmith route. Good suggestion. I'll try that next and report back. Thanks

Has anyone found a locksmith in the San Jose, CA area that can cut Maverick keys? I've struck out so far. Problems ranged from not being able to cut the groove into the side of the keys (they can only cut the edges like a traditional key) to not having the 2023 Maverick XL codes to put into...

I'm with you Robert. I've had my '23 XL Hybrid for about six months and love it. I waited a year and a half for it and it was worth the wait. I was replacing a 2006 Subaru Baja. So, a larger bed, modern safety features and almost double the mileage are all welcome upgrades. I guess I'm...

I went ahead and got the AlphaTrax. I had a couple questions and their customer service was excellent. They fit well, are easy to install and weigh less than any other chains/cables I've used. Just hope they perform well, if/when needed. I'll post to this thread once I actually use them in...

That's great that both keys worked for you. I also have a '23 XL. So, I'm banking on the fact that since the Strattec 5923293 (Ford blank) plastic head key worked for you, the non-Ford branded plastic head key https://amzn.to/3HNZe5h recommended by Redneck Garage will work as well. My only...

So, did you get the Alpha Trax? If so, how do you like the fit and performance?
