That video is exactly why when I came to Texas for school I decided not to go back, LOL!!!
What kind of tires, stock or snow tires?

You call that snow?
Just kidding man, looks great and that white stuff looks all too familiar.

p.s. Do you put winter snows on your vehicles? On my F150, I finally had to replace the original winter snows for this coming season. 76K miles on it shared between the OEM all seasons (which I think/hope will still be good for next year) and Nokiam LT E rated snows.OkLook on the bright side, you won't have to worry about getting into an accident because of snow. This is a good thing, right? Right?

Now I see why a bunch of you all want AWD.https://www.dropbox.com/s/qq0rwzporha045f/Mav Snow Machine.mp4?dl=0
Mav AWD 2.0 L performance in snow was phenomenal! The traction control and stability was the best I've experienced in all my years driving during a blizzard.
Watch video and know you've made the right choice for AWD in the Great Lakes region!!!
Zamboni stuff....congratswe actually did not like the escopias on the escape hybrid on snow and ice....just mounted some blizzak ws90s on black steelies and slapped em on a few weeks ago.
Just don't forget to put it in slippery mode our ur done forhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/qq0rwzporha045f/Mav Snow Machine.mp4?dl=0

Exactly. I respect what anyone buys but someone from a different situation telling me I am crazy for buying an ECO, AWD, or the FX4 package because it’s a “waste” is annoying. We all have different environments to deal with. If I I lived in a warm climate, or city my preferences would change. My message has been get what works for you without judging others in what they want or need.Now I see why a bunch of you all want AWD.

Everyone should enjoy their great small truck and be happy. I am.
You're Welcome!Nice
Thanks for sharing
Texan here...I don't do snow much. Last year when we had snow my FWD focus was just fine. I just allowed plenty of room to brake.
That said, I imagine the Mavericks light weight, compared to other trucks, is an advantage.
P.S. all you who make fun of southerners for shutting down when there's winter weather....#1. most of the time, we don't get snow, we get SLEET and ICE. No one is a good driver in ice. Especially when it's randomly placed. #2. We don't have salt/sand trucks. Snowed roads stay snowed and without grit to aide in traction until it melts.
Sincerely,
All Southern Drivers
Yes, Slippery Mode was engaged (corrected) I thought the button was an illuminated type but NOT on XL. Buttons been on for weeks! Ha...Where you using the slippery mode?
