My recollection when I did the nav update was it took an hour.

Going back to 2013 with MyFordTouch I have never bothered to try and upload the XML file. The Ford site has always caught up and reflected what I have installed.

Well I have to admit I was wrong. Did some searching and while the CO2 impact of an EV is higher to manufacture it is made up relatively shortly with essentially zero emission during use.

When you factor in all the emissions dumped into the atmosphere mining the lithium and other chemicals, plus the emissions dumped into the atmosphere processing the chemicals into batteries, the cradle to grave emissions for an EV are 20% to 30% higher than an ICE vehicle.

I so seldom use either of the modes I have not noticed if there is a difference.

FWIW, I installed a gauge pod on my dash with a vacuum/boost, oil pressure and voltage gauges. The charging in the Ranger acts differently than any other vehicle I have ever owned. The charging voltage varies any where from about 12.8 to 15 volts. 12.8 is little or no charging going on and 15...

I don't know about the Grabber AT being a knock off of the BFG KO2, they have been around since the early 90s, KO2 came out in 2015). Certainly has a similar tread pattern to the KO2 but it is not a copy by any means. The tire has gone through several iterations of the years, the original AT...

My Tremor came with the General Grabber A/Tx (there is no N/TX). I was concerned that they would be to noisy for a daily driver but was pleasantly surprised at how quiet they are on pavement. I have about 21k miles on them and they are starting to get noiser but still acceptable. My off roading...

The most useful screen is AFE Bias. That 1000 number can be adjusted up or down to correct errors in the economy display.

3.4.22251 was released on Cyanlabs a couple of months ago. Didn't know Ford was pushing it out now. From what folks have posted on Cyanlabs it doesn't address any known bugs or make any visual changes.

1. Livernois doesn't do custom tunes. When you start doing mods like bigger turbos, more aggressive cams, etc. You will need to go to someone like Unleashed that will provide a custom tune for your build. 2. Livernois has a proprietary device for installing the tune to your vehicle which means...

My 2021 Ranger Tremor is a bigger vehicle in every measure compared to the 2001 Dakota Quad Cab 4x4 I still had when I got the Ranger. The Dakota had the 4.7 v8 but the Ranger is faster. While I have never had a tank of gas with less than 20 mpg with the Ranger the Dakota never had one over 20...

A canned tune like Livernois, SCT or Ford Performance are perfectly appropriate for an otherwise stock engine. It's when you start making engine mods beyond a cat back exhaust or a CAI the stock or canned tune actually are the ones that become dangerous and a custom tune is the only way to stay...

No matter how big you want your business to be if you are not customer focused the only thing that will happen is it will get smaller until there is no business.

Yep! That's the way it works. Idling time negatively impacts your overall mpg

You are splitting hairs. In the context of this thread mileage = miles per gallon or mpg. No your trucks odometer will not change while the engine is running in park but the economy display's mpg or mileage will go down.

Was never trying to compare the two. My original post was that parked and idling will decrease you overall mileage while coasting it will increase your mileage. Nothing more.

Nope, the manufacturers have been turning off the injectors when you are coasting as a fuel savings measure for years. Vehicles with automatic transmissions have lock up torque converters that keep the engine turning over even though there is no fuel being injected. It is real easy to see if you...

I have disputed charges on my debit card and have been reimbursed just like if I had used a credit card. The only time it becomes a hassle is if you have a recurring charge, because the bank can't see a charge processing they can't stop it before it happens. In those cases you have to have it...

Yes, but you are still consuming fuel which overall reduces your mileage. And, conversely when you take your foot off the gas and coast the fuel injectors are shut off so you are accumulating mileage with no gas consumption. This will increase your overall mileage.
