Sold my '24 R, here's why...

I suspect that it would be a once in a lifetime experience. But it's moot because I don't see any way that you could get there with only 700hp. It's got the wind profile of a motorhome ....

You'd be surprised. A dude took a stock TRX with some higher speed rated tires and went 177mph on the autobahn

Based on the instability that cropped in suddenly at 130 on my tuned gen 2 on 35s... I really can't imagine how ponderous things would get on 37s at 160....I definitely think it would go 160+ easy.

I’m not sure how you get 8.6mpg out of an eco Raptor. Is your commute rock crawling the Rubicon trail?

Even towing a 5-6K lb camper in hills at 65-70mph I still got 7.5. 8.6 is if you do cold starts at -10F and drive 1 mile and park it....lol Or literally only use both the gas and brake petal to the floor during the entire drive.

I used to get 9-10 out of my Gen 2.

37s and 2 mountain passes. About 380 miles a tank, or less. Depending on how much of an asshօιε i was driving.

Yeah 37MTs will definitely not improve your MPGs...lol

Can't wait to put 38s on my superduty

Wtf 11.1 mpg? Your R deserves better..I keep telling y'all it gets better when you're in single digit mileage. Someone confiscate his supercharger.

Not sure what's worse, double digit R mileage or 35>37. Smh..
