So I installed a Petal Commander today. If you're not sure what it is, it's basically a little module that plugs in above the gas pedal and alters the electronic signal. Actual installation takes seconds. Complete plug and play. This model works with 2011+ Ford vehicles, so I will be trying it on my 2016 Explorer too.
Once installed I tried it out a run to grab some food. It has a few modes. Eco, City, Sport, and Sport+...(AKA Ludicrous Speed )
Eco: This mode on the street, is worthless, it feels very anemic, however, I'm very curious to try this off road. In 4lo this would be awesome to use to crawl through stuff with.
City.: This is a step above what it is stock. (which you can just scroll through to turn it back to stock.) However it much more responsive. This they was it should be from the factory. This is my favorite setting, so far
Sport: Truck comes alive here. I would almost say touchy. I almost thought it was a poinless mode, because of the next level, but I think it's a happy medium in between more fun and bat out of hell.
Sport+: Whoa! If you added any other performance mods on top of this, it would be insane. You hit the gas and then it's somebody hit the NOS button from Fast and Furious films. It doesn't change the horsepower, just the throttle response. But itsi pretty nutty.
I'll be testing it more over my comutco over the next few weeks, to see the effects on mpg, and overall drivability. Again I'll also trying it in my 2016 Explorer.
Feel free to ask any questions.
Oh, I got mine from here in case anyone is interested.
