At first I thought @Larrymoe was trolling, now I’m convinced he/she is.

Aside from the power gains, I would love to get rid of the CD system, and just cruise around in D with all cylinders running
I’m with you would love to get rid of CD. To me Sport mode is just to much to drive around with all the time.

I think Fords implementation of CD really works well. Now that I have had my truck for a few months. I’m averaging 19.8 mpg right now and I cant tell when its on or off. ?

I will probably not change mine then. I put a Borla cat back exhaust on my 2001 tundra many years ago and I didn't make it more than a month with that thing installed before I took it off. It drowned badly on the highway and sapped the low in torque so much so that the truck couldn’t even spin the tires after installing it. Whenever I was in traffic, people knew how much throttle I was giving it, which just made them push their go pedal instinctively down further and that’s not what I wanted. It was an expensive mistake and I sold it and basically went back to stock. I did try a high flowing Spintech muffler, which was a good compromise using the stock pipe and retained low end torque but eventually, I just went back to stock. I hate a noisy vehicle on the highway.

I have the BAP dual outlet exhaust and I ca hear cd and feel it everytime it happens. Also it does almost nothing to mpg where I live not to many flat highways in NY. How do i know i had a 18 Sierra 6.2 and a plug in to turn off V4 mode and there was zero difference in mpg.

You haven't met "interesting" exhaust until you drive a '27 Cadillac with glass packs . . .
? ?

:rolleyes:

:facepalm:

After his initial horror at the discovery of what the prior owner's grandkids had done, he was amused, and kept them.

They also buffed off the factory pin striping on the original paint!
???

Bizarrely, they missed a segment between the front and back doors, less than an inch, and he was able to have it authentically redone.

Fortunately, the grandkids didn't have it very long . . . this thing had 89 year old paint when I drove it, except for the fenders. It was a thorough example of a "survivor", and took the best of show for prewar at the annual meeting.

I got some oceanfront property in Nebraska to sell you if you think that's true.
It's cute that you think you still own anything after that comment . . .

:facepalm:

Ok, sure. I'm glad you could chip that in 4 days later. Good job and have a nice day.

what word is that, I just don't get it? Why do you use it, it doesn't make sense.
The point being, if you're going to insult someone's intelligence, using proper grammar is probably a good idea.
