What gear am I in?

Does the 2022 Ranger Tremor show what gear you are in?

If it's like other Rangers, just push the '+' on the selector and it will show on the dash. But doesn't show when in sport mode, at least on my STX SE.

Thanks I will try that.

First Gear, it's all right...
Second Gear, I'll lean right...
Third Gear, hang on tight...
Faster, it's all right !!!

Yep, + button on the shifter shows the gears but only in Drive mode. Wish it showed in Sport mode too, kind of annoying it doesn't.

It does in tow mode which is almost as good. Almost.

mine shows in sport mode ... pretty sure

See the little "2" beside the @ ?

In Sport mode when you shift the gear you are in shows in the tach with the lariat trim level

Mine shows the gear in Sport mode IF you are manually shifting.

If you are letting it auto shift in Sport mode it doesn't display the gear.

I haven't played with all the different display settings so there may be one that shows it.

Should show the gear in sport or normal with a shift button push.

You could always assume 10th and be right most of the time if you don't have a tune.

When you push the + button in Sport it becomes manually shifted in Sport. Gear is displayed.

I didn't drive it long enough to see if it would eventually upshift itself. It did downshift when coming to a stop but then stayed in 1st until I shifted.

If I am in Sport, the trans auto shifts at high RPM's. If I hit '+' or '-', it's now in Select mode and will not shift automatically.
From the online manual:

Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position for the best fuel economy and smoothness. Shift the transmission selector lever to drive (D) to allow your vehicle to move forward and shift through the forward gears.
The transmission shifts to the appropriate gear for optimum performance based on ambient temperature, road slope, vehicle load and your input.

Sport Mode (S)
Switch on sport mode by shifting the transmission selector lever to sport (S). In sport (S), the transmission selects the optimum gear for best performance. This gear selection is typically lower than that of drive (D), and the shifts are faster.

Tow Mode

To switch on tow mode, press the button on the center console until tow mode is active. The indicator light illuminates in the instrument cluster when the system becomes active.
The tow mode feature:

• Moves upshifts to higher engine speeds to reduce the frequency of transmission shifting.
• Provides engine braking in all forward gears, which slows your vehicle and assists you in controlling your vehicle when descending a slope.
• Depending on driving conditions and load conditions, may downshift the transmission, slow your vehicle and control your vehicle speed when descending a hill, without pressing the accelerator pedal. The amount of downshift braking provided varies based upon the amount you press the brake pedal.

The tow mode feature improves transmission operation when towing a trailer or a heavy load. All transmission gear ranges are available when using tow mode.
To switch off the tow mode feature and return to normal driving mode, press the button on the center console twice. The indicator light turns off when the system turns off. Tow mode also turns off when you power down your vehicle.

SelectShift™ Automatic Transmission
This feature gives you the ability to change gears up or down as desired.
If the engine speed does not exceed the maximum allowable limit, the vehicle allows the downshifts. SelectShift automatically downshifts at low engine speeds to prevent engine stalls.
Note: Engine damage could occur if you maintain excessive engine revving without shifting.
SelectShift does not automatically upshift, even if the engine is approaching the RPM limit.
For 10 speed transmissions - with the transmission selector lever in sport (S) position:

• Press the (+) button on the transmission selector lever to upshift.
• Press the (-) button on the transmission selector lever to downshift.

To exit this mode, return the transmission selector lever to drive (D).
When your vehicle is stationary, you can only select the 1st and 2nd gears. Manual shifting is sequential. Therefore, you cannot skip gears.

Additionally, if in sport mode and you hold the shift button + or - for about 3 seconds it will go back to auto shift mode.
