If the Ranger Super Duty came here id be trading my 2025 in tomorrow for it lol And theres an XLT version now ou la la lol

eh I just live with it, I may have just gotten used to it as well because I don't really notice difficulty closing the doors anymore or maybe the seals around the doors have broken in a little? - coming from a 2014 F150 Super Cab that needed the heat or A/C on full blast or the cab was basically...

It will get better as the engine breaks in - I was getting 17 average the first thousand or so miles I'm at 4600k now and the truck averages about 20 mpg between highway and city driving with more city / rural driving usually for me. I also run 91 octane just FYI.

Which is a shame - the 6g Ranger is great!

Is it ever truly "done" tho? I thought it was always trying to tweak solenoid pressures etc. based on driver input to optimize... and that's half the reason weird stuff happens with these ten speeds shifting IMO. It should just have a set shift table it follows based on inputs like speed...

Had this happen to me three times (there was another forum post about this) Only while slowly turning and still rolling - meaning I never came to a complete stop - truck almost has 5k now and I have not noticed it again - I'm wondering if its some dumb thing with the adaptive learning for the...

To me it sounds like an F150 would be a better option for you - if you get something with 3.55 gears it will still tow fine but not kill your MPGs on the highway. Newer 5.0s have cylinder deactivation too which will improve highway mileage (and the system seems to be better than GMs etc. no...

I'm guessing its going to be a 3.0 V6 at heart but tuned differently and/or have one less turbo - whatever it ends up being its not going to be the same exact thing as what goes into a Ranger Raptor... so... hopefully the MPGs will be better or at least on par with the current 2.7TT V6.

Mazda did! love the 3.3L Turbo I-6 in my wifes CX-90

The powerboost is kind of awful from what I understand - its not very smooth because of the how the hybrid system deploys power. Most likely the Ranger engine options will be: 2.3EB 3.0EB and 3.0EB HO for engine options in the future with that last being reserved for the Raptor

I've been enjoying the 2.7 in my Ranger. Kind of sad to see it go in the F150 because I'm sure this is the beginning of all 2.7s just being some kind of 3.0 V6 anywhere you find a 2.7 now which I think is only the F150, Ranger and Bronco. Makes sense from a manufacturing cost sense but a Non...

I've been running 91 octane since the second tank, its ingrained in me that turbo engines need higher octane to prevent knock... while I know the engine can run on 87 I spent 49k on a truck, I'm not going to cheap out on fuel (just my opinion) and I want the full power rating of the engine...

Right from the ford website - Advertised power ratings achieved with premium fuel... so it does matter.

#1 sounds like the culprit in my case, the truck stayed in third gear there was just no response from the gas pedal input - like traction control intervening although there were no dash lights indicating as such.

I have had this happen a few times as well, but as you said the engine did not die, it was more like the throttle input wasn't being registered - similar feeling to like when traction control kicks in almost - the last time it happened I left my throttle input at the same position on purpose...

Thank you for your input, I'm glad to hear this - I know there are "better tunes" and that Ford would have to prove an aftermarket tune caused a drivetrain failure etc. but I really only care about improving the shifting and keeping my warranty. Truck has plenty of power IMO.

I hear ya, and you're absolutely right that the aftermarket tuners have way more control and gains etc. but I don't want to take the chance of voiding the factory warranty. This is only my second new vehicle ever so... I rather not risk the warranty while I still have it.

I'm probably blowing it out of proportion, the truck shifts great 90% of the time, but its that 10% when its a harsh downshift or its trying to figure out what gear it should be in while turning at speed that make me wonder sometimes lol

That's good to hear, I'm much more concerned about the shifting - truck with the 2.7 doesn't need more power IMO but the shifting drives me nuts sometimes. When its not being funky the 10R60 is great but the random odd shifts is off-putting to me.
