On Ford trucks, you can lock out overdrive gears, which is fantastic to keep from overheating your transmission due to needless shifting on the highway. I can count the number of times on one hand that Iāve driven my F150 in 10th gear. I always lock out at least 10th gear and sometimes ninth...
A little over 19 with the 2.7 in my 23 two door and a little over 21 with the 2.3 in my 25 two-door. Thatās the average shown on the lie o meter but that give you a rough idea.
Something is not right. I have a 2025 with a 2.3 and a 2023 with a 2.7 and the 2.7 is an absolute rocket compared to the 2.3. If you so much as breathe on the throttle the 2.7 comes to life. The 2.3 is adequate but itās anemic compared to the 2.7. We have the Ford tune on both engines and I run...

I have two 2 doors. One has the 2.7 with the automatic and the other has the seven speed manual with the four-cylinder. Itās adequate but the 2.7 is a rocket. If you could get enough traction with the 2.7 in the short wheelbase two door, it would easily lift the front tires off the ground...

Itās short compared to a full-size old-school truck but compared to our 2018 Mustang GT and our 1983 Ford Ranger with a Mustang GT engine and T5 installed in it, itās got a longer throw. But ours is nice and smooth regardless.
My 2018 Ford Mustang GT is a slug at low RPMs compared to my eco-boost engine vehicles. Itās the only thing I donāt like about it. You have to rev that thing to get any power out of it.
