Precisely. It's not going to happen. Nor do you probably want it to, without that hybrid powertrain warranty guarantee, the market wouldn't even be emerging the way it has

I (and we're kind of following a convo that started by quoting my pic of my dash) am talking about the MPG achieved driving about 3 miles each direction at an average speed of 20 or less with idling time For apples to apples we're talking about getting 16+ MPG with the Powerboost where my 2019...

What would the 2014 get if you took over 6 hours to drive 113 miles?

Is 17.9 mpg city driving a 6,000 lb truck really so terrible?

Yes, if you use the truck as a generator, that will end up using fuel. I'm not talking about that, I'm just talking about driving, and "idling" where it spends about 90% of the time on (and counting the clock on the trip timer), but engine off It saves a significant amount of fuel vs a regular...

So how much driving have you done, and how weird is it to clearly hear the engine turn on and off constantly?

Petition your elected representatives to get rid of the federally required 8 year 100k mile warranty...which is itself possibly the only reason we have these hybrids at this point to begin with

The perfect application for the Powerboost

I think technically the 2.7 is a better truck engine than anything in a half ton that came before it

My Platinum high Powerboost 4x4 with big generator is 1,424 lbs payload

Sit in one with a console before you write it off. Going up to 502A for actually-good headlights is a big deal. Also if you got 4x4 you'd get 4A which is basically full time all wheel drive and is spectacular, even in the rain. Window tint. Ceramic or better, all windows, as soon as you get it.

Does that logic apply to seat belt minders, putting itself in park, auto park brake, hands on wheel, watch the road, need a coffee break, can't input nav or certain settings while moving, traction control not totally defeatable, skip shift transmission programming, remote start limits, I'm sure...

More traction, more control, more better. 4A is basically made for the rain.

Is there a better answer for this yet? Because on page 517 the manual says " Hybrid Battery Systems We recommend the following actions for your vehicle: • When storing your vehicle for greater than 30 days the state of charge should be approximately 50%." So, clearly, the manual (2022)...
