Still super dirty from the transport, but should have time to solve that later today. Just landed. Not sure if you can even get boost creep with a blower, but here we are.

Interested to hear your feedback after a couple weeks of ownership. Mainly your opinion if the extra performance is worth the increased fuel stops.

I will let you know, but I don’t really drive a ton so don’t think it will bother me too much. My bigger concern was range for long road trips but then my wife reminded me there’s no point in a 550-600 mile range because her and the kids will need at least two restroom breaks in that time. Good point haha.

I talked to a local R owner who has made 3-400 mile trips from where I am on one tank, which is mostly all I ever do. I think on the highway the R should get just over 400/tank, we’ll see.

It will do 400 mile trips no problem. I get 13 with normal everyday grandpa driving. Somewhere between 13.5-14.5 on hiway

I just made a road trip from maryland to Florida, drive around Florida for 2 weeks and drive back... wasn't bad at all. 3 fill ups total from maryland to Naples Florida. Average 75 mph.

Average mpg?

Average mpg?

13.9

13.9

That’s absolutely acceptable. People aren’t doing much better with 37pp’s.

 

[cr23raptor1983]

Yep wasn't upset at all. Honestly can careless, didn't buy the truck for fuel mileage. My regular 23 raptor with 35's got 17 same driving style.

Average mpg?

I drove 3000 miles from West Virginia to SoCal averaging 11mpg.

Took it on the dirt over the weekend and averaged 8.5mpg @ 20psi.

IMHO, the R is extremely unpractical as a daily driver. This is strictly my fun/dirt vehicle.

I did a 40 roll and 60 roll drag race with a '23 EB Raptor and yes the R won, but barely lol.
