No one is impressed by our V6 sound. Keep it in normal and hope no one notices.

That is why I put on that CORSA X TREME with that SPD down pipes and I blow doors off!

For the first few months I have had the truck it, I have been driving in Regular (eco) mode 95% of the time.
I now have been driving 95% of the time in Sport mode... I honestly do not see a big difference in gas consumption. Driving in Sports mode is a lot better for city and hwy combo for me. The response of the throttle is just so much better when I need that quick lane change / acceleration.

For long highway drives I always use Regular lol.

Why hasnt anyone come up with a test?

1 week in sport
1 week in normal

• Gas mileage
• Transmission feel
• Which gear it stays in the most

So didn’t do a test, but when I got the truck for the first like 4 months my R mode was normal, Baja exhaust, comfort steering and Baja suspension. Gas mileage was 16.5 avg.

Now my R mode is the same as above but the standard mode is sport and not only does it make it come much more alive, but honestly I think I’m getting BETTER gas mileage. Right now I’m averaging just under 17 so idk how true it is or what factors came in but I seem to drive the truck more “normal” in sport knowing that if I need the power it is right there.

Correlation does not equal causation, but yesterday I forgot to hit the "R" (Sport with quiet exhaust) and when the lights turned green I seemed to lag much further behind the cars ahead of me.

I realized my mistake, hit the "R" twice and was once again nimbly navigating LA traffic

When using Sport mode on the street, do you select 2H vs 4H?

Never use 4H on the street. If you need 4x4, use 4 Auto.

I use Sport and 2H.

Sorry, I meant to type 4A...
