Which GOAT mode do you use most often?

[ScottyC]

99% of the time, I keep it in Eco mode. When it is snowy and crappy out, I switch to Slippery mode. I just wish it would stay in the selected mode when you re-enter the vehicle

Hmmm. Sport and Eco tied and normal in the lead. Makes sense. You have to drive somewhere to drive off road. And why shouldnt they have made a 4 door? Did your dealer make you buy a 4 door? LMAO!

How are you enjoying your 2D Raptor?

With Wildtrak, I was most of the time on Sport, now with Raptor I use MyMode to customize Sport settings and open the flaps in the exhaust fully.

It is so stupid we can’t set default driving mode.

Whoops, I voted before fully realizing "Normal" was an option. I voted for Rock Crawl, because I use that more than any other mode other than obviously normal. I basically always run normal unless more serious off-roading, in which case its Rock Crawl or Baja all the way.

I would be curious to see how others answer with Normal omitted which seems obvious as the default...

I was wondering who the hardcore dude was that drove around all the time on rocks haha

 

[JimboSlice]

Normal, but a lot of my driving is back and forth from Lake Tahoe to Sacramento. I use Sport mode up and down the mountain and it is awesome! As soon as I get back on flat ground I put it back to Normal mode.

Agreed, although I would settle for being able to delete normal and eco, thus making sport the default mode.

Most of the time I am in Normal but 99% of time in 4A, which gers selected with Sport anyway. I prefer Sport since the throttle response in traffic (and hills) is much enhanced. Same as when I get to drive our X4. Prefer Sport (same basic transmission from ZF I believe)

All in after 28000 miles returning 20 mpg

OK, here's the deal. I have an OBX. Mall Crawler. FYYFF. I am also an old fart. Most of the time I keep it in Normal mode.

My wife and I had to drive into Seattle yesterday to get some special pastry for some friends. We had a bit freezing rain ice storm the day before, but a warm front came in and it was raining and melting the ice.

I selected Slippery mode and turned off the ASS.

We got in the Bronco and slid down our driveway. Once we got down our hill it was not too bad. The Bronco did great. I totally enjoyed the drive. Had Grateful Dead going the whole time. Stopped at QFC at 5th and Mercer to pick up additional necessities. Got back home in one piece.

Kept it in slippery the whole way. I am very happy with my new Bronco.

mostly normal - with Sport as a close second. and I wonder why I'm getting 14 mpg

 

[RimrockPaul]

For the most part I'd agree with that. Sport seems to do nothing, but I've seen other manual owners rave about it.

I have a base manual and find the goat stuff an easily forgettable feature.

 

[Gnomad]

Normal. I have a stick shift. GOAT modes are silly marketing if you have a manual.

There is a very discernable difference in my base 7MT between eco, normal and sport.
