Want to confirm where the Glacier V-Trac Tire Chains specifically the 2121V are made. Fingers crossed its not China.

Expert Reply:
The Glacier V-Trac Cable Snow Tire Chains PW2121V (DISCONTINUED) referenced in your question are indeed made in China.
We do not have any cable style chains that are made domestically but we do have square link chains from Pewag that are made right here in the USA (Colorado to be exact). If you have 265/70-17 size tires on your 2017 Ford F-150 I recommend taking a look at the Pewag All Square Snow Tire Chains # PWE2228SC. These are durable alloy steel chains that will provide you with great traction in the snow and ice.
If you are needing Class S compatible chains (if your truck features limited wheel well clearance) then I recommend the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains # TH01594267 that feature unique color-coded connection points to allow for an easy install and require only 12 mm of internal clearance. These particular chains are made in Italy.
I have attached a couple of short video demonstrations on these products that you can check out as well.
