I miss Blackout150

[Blackout150]

Small issue. Had truck into dealer for wiper motor recall. Must be a dandy of a job. They cracked my windshield replacing the motors. New glass installed all is good for now. Has been awful quiet in here. Guess everyone is enjoying driving around!!

It has been really quite. Still waiting to tow my trailer for the first outing. Weather has not been cooperating here. Already have had 2 trips canceled. I think there is only a few of us on here from the original guys on the chip hold thread. That thread has been dead for at least a month. No posts. Already have 5000 miles on my truck and loving it. Have not had any of the issues that have been common on this forum. Knock on wood. Do miss talking to all of you guys. Glad that everyone seems to be enjoying there trucks. For the guys that haven’t been on for awhile it would be good to see how everyone is doing with there trucks! Feel free to chime in!

My truck is crazy nice. I have 400 miles on it now in only two months. The dealership and I have split visitation. They've had it a month and I've had it a month. The power is so good on this thing. I swear I'm going to try and drive like an adult. 25% of my miles are electric though. But I'm only getting 17 mpg. I thought I was going to get to drive in the snow, but it melted off too fast.

Well I’m glad you got it back. I have done 2 long trips in mine and have got respectively 20-22 miles to the gallon. I notice that the short little 1-2 mile trips with lots of stopping is probably where I get the worst mileage. Just depends. I am loving it though. I have driven it in the snow and was very happy with how it handled. People complain about the hankook tires but I have no problems with them and traction.

My daily drive includes 13 mins of 55-60 and 14 mins of 76-78 mph. Two stop signs. I am averaging around 19.5 mpg. Still beats 16-17 mpg of my previous eco-boost.
The hybrid system is taking over for the turbos, unless I push it. This is where my increase comes from.
I am averaging less than 10% electric miles. Something like 100 electric miles over 1500 total.

I have been happy with my truck thus far. I only drive 3.1 miles to work so mileage is not the best for me, several hills and stop signs so I average .7 miles electric, but that seems to be improving with the weather. One night last week I actually got over 24 mpg on a short trip in town. Like GrampsBoost I have been anxious for the snow to go and warmer temps so I could apply some lettering to my tailgate. Got that done yesterday. Happy with the way it turned out.

@Meathead Nice, I did the same

Is this like the F150 "Bro" thread?

You can say that. We were all part of the chip hold thread and didn’t want to let go of the camaraderie that we had?. Feel free to join the group. Your guys lettering looks great. We are finally getting 70+ degree weather here. So glad we are done with the weather.

Yahtzee !! what Blackout said. we all spent a lot of agonizing hours waiting for our trucks together.

I like the letters as well. I have been jealous of the tailgate letters since '18. I have a set picked out, just not ordered yet.

I had the American flag Tuff Skinz picked out for mine and they quit making them for PLATINUM since I found them back last year.

I considered the same before I ordered the two tone. Now it just makes sense to get the stone grey.

It will make an excellent anniversary prize. Now, I just need to convince the wife!

Thats why I ordered mine when I did, didn't want to chance not getting them. As it turned out I had the letters a month before I had the truck! ? ?
