These are all the videos my dealer sent me before I picked up my truck. I totally forgot about them until you started posting them... thanks!

There’s some good info there. I haven’t heard of locking out gears before. Pretty cool.

i love these Ford videos. And man I really like the Rangers where the bumpers are the same color as the body. Not sure why that's the standard look it should be a performance package with standard being chrome or black. I had a 2005 4.0 Ranger Edge that was Oxford White and had matching white bumpers, it looked amazing.

The sport mode manual shift is mandatory for an improved experience going up mountains to stay in power band and down the mountains to engine brake.
For those who don't race you can get a boat load of performance out of a truck by simply making sure you do most of your breaking while still in a straight line.....before a curve...coast through the first half of the curve and then rolling into the throttle early mid corner and harder as you are apexed and line up.
The look on people's faces driving sports cars but with no skill is pretty funny when I'm able to handle mountain roads faster than their Audi in my lifted looking truck and walk rhem down and then walk away.
But.....I didn't know you could cancel it w a 2 second press. That's useful.
I had been Just shifting to regular drive to cancel pure manual mode.
