Nice video, thanks.

What driving modes did you try in the snow ? Does this vehicle have either FX4 or 4KTow ?

great video Maniac. Thanks for posting. I have the same results with my AWD running Falken AT3's here in Colorado and I haven't needed any mode but normal. Curious , what brand is your bed rack? I'm looking. regards

Nice video, and beautiful scenery there in PC!

(BTW, your stopping ability has nothing to do with the AWD system, and everything to do with your tires. )

Thanks for the complement Richard! I try to be different by not making you stare at me, my 150+ videos focus on my 2 Mavericks as the stars of my videos.

This Mav in PC has AWD with LUX, 360 & 4k tow. Our Mav in HB is a hybrid with LUX & 360.

Yes normal mode works great. Slippery lowers the gear a little and helps grip the road better on snow.

I posted an install video of the rack on Oct 19, 2023. It's by Angry Elephant, strange name but easy install with extra accessories others do not include.

Thanks for the thanks Jeff! Really. I try to show real world driving experiences and size comparisons, rather than the usual walk arounds and test drives.

Yes you are right, snow tires are the key to stopping. When accelerating, the AWD system sends less power to the wheels that spin, helping to keep the Maverick straight and less likely to slide sideways when braking. This is how AWD helps with braking.

Wonder if other modes can be added to nonvfx4 awd's?
And if so if you'd lose one of the others.

• ??????????????????
• Mud & Ruts: This mode enhances vehicle performance to traverse muddy, rutted or uneven terrains.
• 
  
• Sand: Engage this mode for off-road driving on soft, dry sand or deep snow.

Very informative. Many people are probably wondering how well the AWD Mav handles the snow. Thank for posting.

You most certainly can add mud/ruts and sand/snow to non FX4/Tremor AWD Mavericks. I had an iconic silver XL AWD and added both with Forscan and did not lose any of the other modes. I rarely used them, but better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. I have an FX4 Maverick now and will be adding eco and sport soon.

I have the same truck except factory tires.curious how it would do without the blizzacks. I do have those tires on our front wheel drive dodge caravan and they work great!

These two modes would be ideal additions to my AWD 4K Eco. Every summer I make a trip from Coastal Bend TX up into the desert mountains of NE NV. Depending upon rainfall amounts, the roads up to my friend's [amazing] place can be either muddy & rutted or sandy & soft--sometimes pretty tricky. Past summers I've flown out to SLC & taken a rental from there into NV. This year, with my new Mav, I plan to drive out there from here. Unless the rainfall or lack there of is extreme, I'll be fine. But it'd be great to have extra drive modes if it gets gnarly.

Thanks, great video. I've headed south in winter for the last several years but your ski town has me missing that aspect of the great white north.
