I had a VW GTI that used 200 mpg as the coasting value. It was always way off. Ranger uses a much better but still unrealistic 30 mpg. It reads what the engineers designed it to read.

For every second your foot is off the accelerator the fuel computer averages 30 mpg. Put it on fuel economy screen and watch the gage go to 30mpg every time your foot is off the pedal. That is why the computer is off by at least 1 mpg minimum.

on my 2021 super cab lariat Settings - scroll one screen to right - vehicle settings - find rear occupant alert , toggle off.

I work in a control room for an electric generating station. I can look at the logic for all the instruments, sensors, pumps, motors etc in the plant. The software controls everything.

2021 lariat FX4, easily found in the menu and deactivated when I looked for it. It’s 106F outside today, not motivated to go out in the 170F truck interior to copy the menu path of how to turn it off. One dumbass forgets their precious cargo in the back seat and now everyone has to deal...

You ungrateful chariot riding slacker. You start that puppy up, check the tire pressure and oil levels and go exploring to make up for your hiatus. :)

I promise it’s a shadow black lariat. My usual once a month alternate drive to work route to avoid bumper to bumper interstate pile up.

Another Sunday night shift at work. So another trip thru the desert to get to work. I drive the desert dry lake bed instead of dealing with the 12 miles of bumper to bumper South bound IH-15 traffic. I drive a black Ranger.

Any vehicle not maintained will have issues. I drove my JKU wrangler for 87,000 miles for eight years as a DD. Never had an issue with death wobble or wandering. To write off all solid front axle vehicles because of what you read on the internet or seeing one porly maintained truck is extreme...

Could also happen if you have the a/c set to 74f and you get into a hot truck. ASS will not run because your asking to cool the interior temp on a hot day so the ASS system will be greyed out until the interior gets to the temp your asking for.

I hear you and I get it. I wasn’t trying to correct you at all. Hopefully it didn’t come out that way. I am super duper happy with what I get from the ranger. My Wrangler of 8 years averaged 16 mpg and I loved every mile in that beast rolling on 35’s and 2.5” lift. So getting 20 mpg is...

I drove an average of 4 mph over whatever speed limit was. So never above 80mpg and was getting 19.8mpg I use Fuelly for the record.

Californian lady bought my home last month. Hard part was me finding a rental. That was stressful because rentals were very scarce in the valley. I will retire in 2 years maxx and wanted to take the profits before the August fed water study for lake mead comes out and drought news wrecks the...

You could stay on that same highway for two more hours at the same speed. That average will steadily drop. Any reset will always be higher than an full tank consumed average. I drove through the West Texas desert. Had plenty of time to do the mpg logs on both trip meters and the mpg always...

All info pertaining to dampers are serious as the damper is a serious piece of performance enhancing kit.

Damm. Better get that damper now before it’s super expensive.

Price hasn’t dropped for 2021, rebates are practically non existent. Going price for lariat FX4 currently at 40k - 43k.

They exist in small numbers. My two month old 2021 Lariat FX4

Three months ago when I was searching they were super rare. But I found one while traveling (two time zones away).

In Nevada the DMV was practicing the 6’ distance. Not just for customers but for the DMV workers. That meant half of the work space disappeared. And they only allowed appointment made online. And every DMV office in Las Vegas was booked solid for every time slot for 3 months. Three months...
