Got it, - I have a 2 week old hv awd and am trying to figure this stuff out as well and get the best milage - trying to remember to put it in Eco (crazy it doesn't go back to that mode once u select it) and pull up "This Trip" card (crazy it also doesn't go back to that once u select it too!)...
Not understanding: you say "better in Sport than Eco" and then you quote a trip in Sport one way and Normal the other way? You never say what mpg u get in Eco.... What am missing here?
So far I have seen that prompt to stay in eco mode only once and it flashed by so fast that I missed it- That misses the point anyway because it still would require you to 'do something every time' - now if it flashed by asking if you want to return to normal or some other mode and stayed in...
I do want T-slot cover for possible future rack add-on, but will probably just want roll up as the retractable type seems to take up more space in an already too small bed, and when I went to a dealer where the demo covers were outside all 3 of his retractable brands were frozen and could not...
no slashing here but i responded to one of those comparison sites and after a brief chat w sales where I said I already had a quote at list and was only considering options for below list- they responded w a $600 discount on a 25' lariat- not a fortune but my dealer I had already placed order w...
Understood, I am downsizing from 4 to 3, just bought 25 awd 4ktow to replace 2006 Dakota and a 2017 Volt. Bed is smaller than Dakota and will miss that, mpg is less than the Volt and will REALLY miss that running chores on pure electric or starting a trip an 1st 40 miles are electric is really...
I understand, ordered a 25 and while I think I will love it (would love it more if they had a phev version I could have ordered) I have trepidation of these things and just hope they have applied a bunch of fixes to new model yr,
-The other thing is that issues you see on the forums are just...
Yup, as low as $60 and tpm material, this one is like $129 or 209 w bed mat, mabett w bed mat and door sills is like $145 but may not be as heavy duty- possibly a good value?, weathertek was in $200+ range
Agree you have found ways to save $ and get what’s important to you!
It would be interesting to know if having the XLT badge at resale time would earn you that difference back, or not.
Brave new world- my last Ford was a 2005 Escape Hybrid and I was very worried that it was 1st model yr for it but it worked out very well,- now back for 25’ Lariat that is ridiculously similar to that 05 Escape 20 yrs later, so at least hoping for same result (but worried about the recall...
I ordered 25' Lariat w hybrid awd 4ktow- my reservation was not getting the pro trailer assist unless delaying my order and later placing a Build2 order (and not knowing how long that would be). Now that its scheduled for mid Jan delivery I am revisiting that decision- anyone know if its...
Hopefully you are being sarcastic even if true. Sad situation for the country if this happens, just remember people- 53% asked for higher prices for some reason. ? ? ?
Yeah. Buying one now partly due to resale value (I want a phev truck but tired of waiting so buy this now and trade later?). Definitely worried that by time I am ready to trade the resale may not be what it's been. On the other hand, other manufactures keep "not making a real competitor" to the...
Toyota focused on performance vs economy w hybrid Taco, just like Tundra and other "real Trucks". Maybe they will do differently with a Stout if that ever comes out. Stupid Hundai has not offered hybrid or phev on Santa Cruz even though they have the tech in spades to do so, and that's a big...
1) Agree subsidy is crazy (it's politics) but no crazier than gas oil subsidy to very profitable oil companies
2) you say "despite the higher mileage".... Do you agree you get higher gas mileage or just saying that because OP says he got it? Everything I have heard is you get lower gas mileage!
Wow, is everyone on drugs?
1) he says he used 100% ethenol (it's in the title) not 10%.
2) some responses correctly state that ethenol has LESS ENERGY than gas. Therefore if anything he should have gotten much less MPG vs more, and that should have been a focus/discussion point. I.e. did he...
