Working in the semiconductor industry I've been handed my walking papers 3 times. The first time was a surprise, each time after that I saw it coming. Seeing it coming never made it more fun. Hopefully these folks either have a secure retirement lined up or find other work quickly.
He got his undergraduate degree at my Alma Mater, some areas of the engineering buildings were almost mini-museums with all of the stuff they had on display.
This really annoys me, because good luck if you accidentally turn the volume way down on the tones. Next thing you know, you're missing all sorts of things, but the only way to turn it up is to know when it's making one of these tones (or the nav guidance) so you can turn it back up. Why is this...
You don't have to toggle through the gears, that's manual mode. Sport mode is just when you shift to S and let the truck shift. It significantly changes the shift profile.
My point is that I expect that margin of error to be more like 2mpg, which would render the results of you experiment as "within the margin of error".
I agree that Tow is far better than D for a number of reasons, and I really dislike D. But I just don't believe the MPG savings is a universal...
That's a great start. Now repeat all of the experiments 10 times to look for intrinsic variability.
I am a product engineer, I analyze test data. I can't remember all of the times people freaked out that some test was broken because we would get different answers. Then you do an experiment...
I have a hard time attributing changing gas mileage to the drive mode. At least where I am the temperatures have been wildly changing, the gas stations are switching away from winter blend gas (which gets worse mileage), and I hardly have to use the climate control system.
My mileage up...
Yup, just choose your ground point properly. There are plenty around the engine bay, use one of them because you need a bare metal connection. I crimped on ring connectors for the ground wires and used a butt splice for the 12v connection.
Yup, the fuse, the harness, and the switch are all basically built into the upfitter switches. The lights come with them because most people will need them, but all we need are the wires going directly into the light.
The periphery lights are not wired independently. I don't know how you would even enable this.
All you need is the hot and ground wire going into the lights. Keep them as long as you possibly can until you go to actually wire them up, then trim them to fit. I cut off everything that wasn't...
