Ideally you are seeking to have the trailer brakes neutralize the weight of the trailer to avoid the tow vehicles brakes overworking. I was towing mine using just the slider as the brake controller software was not installed at the factory so I was unable to set the gain value and store it...

Interesting to see your fuel economy, I've managed 12.8 over a similar distance with our 2700lb 16.5ft trailer. I only use tow mode on long descents and keep it in normal any other time

You mean exactly like it does now?

Yep! Every single vehicle I have ever owned that has a fuel mileage readout has been within 2% of hand calculations, It's almost like these engineers know what they're doing....

Same here. my hand calculations have always been better than what the truck is telling me.

If this is either PHEV or regular Hybrid AWD I'll be ordering the day they open up as long as there is a 4K option.

UPDATE: Fixed! Got a call back from Ford Canada saying there was a Service Bulletin for my issue so speak to my dealer, got it booked in and all is now good, gain controls coming up on screen and storable. Technician had to do a software update on the instrument cluster as it would seem that...

I've done 3 trips now with our 2700lb trailer and the worst economy I've seen is 12.8l/100km into a headwind and that included a 12.5 km climb of 8% gradient. Also, if you haven't done so already check with your dealer about the recall on the brake controller.

pretty good overall, some cheaper woodwork in it for sure but seems like they paid attention to good quality windows, seals and appliances

some more from this weekend.. 274km, 13 of which were uphill on 8% gradient, dash recorded 10.9l/100km (21.5mpg), hand calculated at 10.3 (22.8mpg). Not too shabby!

yep, see my post above

simple ball mount 5" drop. rear suspension drops 1" 1/2 when hooked up.

ran it on regular. our trailer brake issue is separate from the recall, we have a software issue where there is no way to store the gain controls, I was hoping the recall would fix it but no such luck. the manual slider does still activate the brakes though so I do use it when necessary on...

tailgate lettering is subjective, personally I prefer it as is but to each their own

If we lived anywhere else I would probably get AC, we may do eventually anyway as we are planning longer desert bound trips in the next few years. We spent almost 25 years tenting together before we bit the bullet and prioritized comfort over low cost. Onboard toilet and a bed that stays in...

Toilet with separate shower, no A/C don't really need it up here.

Great trip thanks, not too far for the first few outings while we shake things down. I'm pretty happy with the mileage all things considered
