    Sport Mode - transmission downshift is jerky

    contrary to belief, firm transmission shifts are better for the transmission than soft slides. when clutch packs engage slowly, they generate heat and friction, when they engage firmly, they dont slip and they improve the life of the wear parts.

    Best Exhaust

    got the car back last Tuesday from Thermal R&D, exhaust looks fantastic and the welds are amazing. i dont have any pictures to share, but the quality is top notch. Matt from Thermal said it should be 3 or 4 weeks. once its installed ill post a video of the sound it makes.

    Auto Start/Stop Indication

    the line is confusing but it means that the engine is running. Like we didnt know that already. given the tach. i agree, it seems kind of pointless. just make it green when on(engine off), grey when activated (engine running) and either the line or nothing at all for deactivated.

    Faster After Break In

    engine break in is nonsense. its a myth. drive it however you want. once the rings are bedded, your engine is never going to get better. its only going to get worse.

    Capless Fuel Lock

    Eco vs Normal in city driving

    because youre expecting the car to actually move when you give it gas, youre probably pushing it harder than you would in Normal mode. all eco does it attempt to keep the engine RPMs low. so its going to shift up faster than normal. eco is good for long highway miles where the engine speed can...

    Very harsh ride

    isnt the point of the ST street pack larger wheels since the rotors are larger?

    Very harsh ride

    if you have the ST you cant go to an 18" rim i believe, the rotors are too large.

    Air Conditioner

    i never noticed that, but i usually only use Full AC. what i have noticed is, when switching from max defrost to AC, it doesnt switch the vents. i stays on defrost, and goes by the fan speed of the button rather than full blast.

    Trying to do oil change at 1500mi mark

    they sell to people who dont do their homework. more money than brains. i went to our local dealer a couple weeks ago and they were selling mustang gt350s with all the shelby stuff at a 40K markup, marked as sold. for whats done to it, you can build a GT mustang better or just as good for WAY LESS.

    2020 Explorer ST Fuel Questions

    the HP and TQ ratings are based on 91 octane just so you know. if you run 87, in theory the engine is going to advance and youll lose critical horsepowers. how many horsepowers? maybe 3 maybe 4.
