Have you ever driven it without being in the battery power mode, if that's possible. If so, what's the MPG when it's running 100% on gasoline? Any hybrid gets "good MPG" because it's not always burning fuel.
You can't do that really.
When are posting internet links against the rules? This is getting nuts, lol. Pretty soon, all we can do here is just type text with zero links or other reference material to support the discussions.
Too bad, as that would give a true "MPG" measurement. Obviously, the more battery that's used in the mix, the better the gasoline "MPG" is going to be.
I got a warning on that top 11 filter thread but no action was taken.When are posting internet links against the rules? This is getting nuts, lol. Pretty soon, all we can do here is just type text with zero links or other reference material to support the discussions.
Probably because someone thought it was "bad information" or some other weird reason. IMO, articles like that, and YouTube videos, etc that tout misinformation should be able to be commented on to call out the misinformation and better inform people. I mean isn't this board all about that?
Yup...we all learn something everyday even small things like no more metal endcaps on @53' Stude c&p today
My 12V battery is failing, about 2 hours after driving I get a deep sleep notice. Been getting progressively worse. Now it is after every drive. No parasitic draw. It just had a 3 days rest and it came to life OK and the ICE did not start immediately (a good thing). Just no Remote functions which I rarely use. Only occasionally to lock the truck when I'm not sure it's locked when I park outside. Bad news there are no replacements available right now. Lots of them are failing on early builds.
Go to Sport mode and the only time the ICE shuts off is at a stop. Kind of like Auto Start/Stop which we all love.
Yeah I ran that and I didn't like it..
How many total miles??
12 volt battery, must be for engine starting.
Both are WAY smaller than a Taurus
The battery that is under your back seat which many folks call the 12V battery. That is the battery that runs the electronics of the truck. The rumor on MTC is that when the hybrid kept getting delayed thousands of these batteries sat for months uncharged. That is why so many early hybrid 12V batteries are failing. The car starts and runs in deep sleep mode, it just loses remote functions. Me thinks the battery is a wee bit undersized. I drove 50 miles on the highway on Wednesday. At the end of the day it took only a few minutes to receive a new deep sleep message on the Ford Pass app. Like I said before it is really not a inconvenience when you park in the garage and don't use remote start.
OMG..
Did you slap him..I had a GTI trying to taunt me yesterday, it was highly modified the exhaust popped and crackled. Driven by a punk though not a nun.
