Really liking this new truck. Like the all black interior, the no chrome and painted door handles plus it is quieter and smoother riding than the 2014. Though it weighs less, it seems to ride heavier. Maybe it’s the gas shocks. Like all the new gadgets except the stop-start. Would like to permanently override that. The finish is much better. Do wish the exhaust made a little more noise. It seems quicker and more responsive as well.

 

Run E85 in it and you'll be shocked at the power difference even on stock tuning. Right Coy?

 

May have to try a tank. One other thing, I wish the rear was about 3” lower. Don’t knit why they make them so high.

 

Yes - I absolutely HATE the start-stop feature on the wife’s new Escape! Fortunately, you can over ride it and it has become second nature for me to hit the over ride button every time I start the vehicle!

 

It will become second nature to me. The couple of times I forgot, I thought the engine skipped when I tried to go after a stop. Irritating 😠

 

I think you can turn off the autostop with Forscan.

 

Or add the Tow-Haul programing which keeps the motor running at a stop sign !

 

Nothing like a wax job on new black paint. Really glad they went back to a truer black. Did not care for the Tuxedo Black I had on the two previous trucks.

Is it it wrong to wax inside the bed?😀

 

How can you live with a black truck in the heat of Texas?

 

I guess it is just what you get used to. Every new truck since 2000 has been black. This is the 6th one.

 

No - I do it all the time.....😂

Are you going with an open bed or are you planning on doing a bed cover of some kind....???

 

I like the looks of a hard cover but it would be so impractical for me. I see people hauling stuff with the lid propped up think how goofy it is. The folded and roll backs just have no appeal to me.

 

Get a Line-X job.

 

Probably what I will do at some point. Thought about doing it now but decided why not wait till it was scratched and used then refresh it with Line- X
