Am I the only one that knows this?

I've done from the day I drove it off the Dealer's lot.

I cannot be the only one that figured out if you drive with the back headrests down, you see the whole back window in your rearview mirror instead of having them blocking most of the view. This only works when you don't have passengers in the back, of course.

Ugh, no, you’re not the only one who knows. Adjusted after purchase before pulling out of dealership. Big difference.

Yep, been doing that since day 1.

Same here.

Not sure if this is a serious question.

I think it is only on Badlands, and Wildtrak, First Edition, and Stroppe. But it's fun because it let's you drive around with 5000 rpm shift points and your front facing camera on, until you hit a tree because you can't help but try to drive only by watching the screen.

Pro tip: you can add missing GOAT modes with Forscan. I added Rock Crawl Mode to my Wildtrak so I have every mode now.

have you had any problems with instrumentation/anything else from adding the rock crawl mode?

I just folded the seats down, then since it is just me , my wife and the dogs.. I took the seats out.

No it all works fine. I made about 10 other changes with Forscan and have had no issues at all. But the change didn't add a disconnecting sway bar to my Wildtrak so adding it was more of a science experiment than a real use case. But for anyone who doesn't have Sport mode, that would be worth adding to any trim level.

Yeah, I’d eventually like to add sport mode to my badlands.

Also, the handle you pull to fold the seat flat can also be used to recline the seat rearward. It is only an inch or so, but it does make it more comfortable for the rear passengers.

Those pesky headrests had to go so I took the back seats out and built a platform.

I propose we label this discovery as a “life hack.”

I did that after they annoyed me by blocking too much of the rear window...

But now also can't unsee this...

It’s all good, I just found out the deal with Santa Claus myself.
