Still looking into a 4x4 16 Screw 3.5L EcoBoost. Probably a dumb question but the last truck I drove in the snow was a Tacoma and the rear end was everywhere slipping and sliding even with 4wd on. My 2000 Cherokee is honestly the best 4x4 I've ever driven in the snow and has gotten me through the last few New England weathers without a hiccup. I had no worries about going out in any snow storm with that SUV. Can I expect the same from the F150?

 

My 12, F-150 4x4 screw EB, was amazing in the snow, even with the crap stock Goodyear sra tires. This was the only snow my 12 ever saw, but it was 4", of sloppy snow! Drove great in the snow for 2 hours straight!

Can't comment yet on my new 16 4x4, with the Hankook AT tires, yet...

 

150s are good.. I've had two 2015 jeeps are so so...you want amazing snow handling buy an acura or honda..

 

It will suck on the factory tires. With a good all terrain or snow tire it will be fine.

 

always a good practice to put some weight in the bed. Sandbags are a good option. 60lbs x 4 and your should be good to go.

 

Most drivers are clueless in snow (or rain). A 4x4 with the SRAs is fine (that's what I have). Locker works great if you're in deep snow and have to cross a main road.

 

When talking snow in my opinion it all comes down to tires, I've owned rear wheel drive cars that I would run dedicated snow tires in the winter that ran great. I would find myself driving past front wheel drive cars with all seasons that were stuck in the street only because my winter tires allowed me traction where all seasons were having difficulty.


The best vehicle i had for the snow was a Jeep Wrangler that i had replaced the OE tires with a set of Duratracs that are snow rated.
