I tried hitting the up/down paddles and it only shows the current gear briefly. Thanks.

I miss that from my other Ford trucks. I played around with mine, searched the net, did not find a trick that will do it. Maybe someone knows of a Forscan setting?
On the RR it shows the gear you're in when in Sport mode but that's it.

Another thing I miss is the mpg bar graph showing a bar for each of the last 5 minutes...

Yeah, it was nice. But the Measurements display that shows every conceivable parameter you could want is very welcomed. Boost, battery voltage, cylinder head temp, transmission temp, oil pressure etc. Very cool.
But I like seeing what gear I'm in.

I think it does in Sport as I missed that as well from BRaptor. It does in Baja, but I think was because Baja puts in manual mode. I could be wrong on all of this as I’ve only had my RR for a couple of weeks. Wonder if you could code it via FORSCAN.

Looks like we are both learning our new RR's. Mine has just over 700 miles now. I have yet to select a different drive mode.

Thete is no +/- shift button on the shifter? That is where you turn it on on the non raptors

Nope, the +/- are the shift paddles on the steering wheel. Pressing those displays the current gear for a few seconds, then it just shows D again.

Hmmm, that’s odd. On the Lariat I tap the +/- button on the shifter and it stays on the display under the tach at least until I power off. Seems it would be even more useful for a model specifically designed as off road. Then again maybe they just decided you kinda know if you need to up or down shift by the feel of the truck and upcoming terrain. More realistically an engineer oversight 🤷🏻‍♂️

My 26 Lariat performs the same as above, +-, stays showing until power cycle or you turn it off.
Now if someone can explain to me why I need a freakin CALM!! screen instead of tire pressure monitor screen, I had one in my 2023 f350 but this 26 ranger has no tire pressure monitor besides on the damn app.

As stated above on the RR only
the gear your in only shows in sport, Baha and tow modes in the center of tach
The other trims work with the + - and shows all gears

that’s odd because I have a tire pressure Screen on my 25 lariat. I had to enable it under my view

It is my default center display item. Except when the truck randomly displays something else……

But you can also access tirelessly pressure directly directly.

Gear is displayed, 2025 year model, when in the sport mode.
