1st 4th with my 2nd 3rd gen

Drove 150 miles to Big Sandy lake. Miles and miles of water, we had a blast.

I enjoyed driving the truck again. Averaged 21.2 miles going 65 mph but made a few stops for food, coffee and bait.

The cooling seats were great, and putting the truck in normal mode, instead if ECO, helped keep the AC on. I also put the AC on manual mode. I don’t like that when it’s in auto it continuously turns off/on to regulate and I hear clicking sound when in park and I’m standing outside the vehicle.

i didn’t catch anything on this party lake. Too many boats, pontoons, other watercraft and dogs that disturbed the water.

 

Come on over. The water is perfect.

I think you might be able to get your truck to float with those 37s

 

Overall mpg for the 300-mile trip was 21.4. I was on normal drive mode for the whole trip. Not bad since we did mostly 70mph for 2/3 of the way back.

The rear suspension is so much more compliant to bumps when there's 200+ lbs of payload on the bed.

My new favorite feature is the bed camera that allows me to see my stuff while driving at speed.

Everything is still good with the truck at 1500 miles:

• Wind noise levels are normal. I can drive at 70 mph with the radio off and hear not a lot of wind noise
• I'm happy with the mpg
• I've figured out the AC clicking issue. I just put the AC control on manual and that workaround is good. I like adjusting the fan myself anyway
• Cooling seats work really well and are quiet at either Low/Mid levels
• Normal driving mode feels better than ECO and gives me basically the same mpg
• I still really like the digital rearview camera, and the PVM-MTM cameras.
• The american flags definitely gave an additional 4 hp.

 

For some reason, I had to read your thread title like 3 times before I understood what you meant. hahaha.

 

Haha...updated my personal details to help clarify a bit.

 

Happy 4th to all. Boys (and gals) and their toys!
