[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1271875, member: 21926"] RE: 1&2. Raptor “normal” mode is the laziest vehicle I’ve ever driven. As you observed, sport mode is way better and there’s no practical way to make sport the default mode or have the truck “remember” the last used mode. note - when you change drive modes, your transfer case setting will change unless you’re in the default mode; so, if you are in 4a, switch to sport, now you’re in 2h. etc. transfer case setting does not change if you stop the truck and restart. If you’re going to tune the truck it’s probably best to go straight to the tune. If you’re not going to tune the truck, learn to select sport mode / 4a / stop/start buttons. I prefer sport for traffic driving. Another option is the pedal commander which tricks the truck into thinking more pedal is being used than actually is. Throttle response with the PC is significantly improved. re: 3 38 psi cold is fine for a fully loaded bed, but if you have nothing in the bed you can drop a few psi. be careful though if you’re on the street, drop too far and your soft sidewalls get even more flexible and introduce more variables. If you have them just right, the tires will work as a component in the suspension. else, the ride is a bit harsh or marshmallowy depending on where you set the psi. Re: 4 You won’t spill starbucks if you hit it fast enough. I hate those damn speed tables though because it kind of ruins the tempo. I have no lurch shifting into park, that doesn’t sound good. The 2017+ Raptors are a blast to drive and huge fun off road. [/QUOTE]
