Which GOAT mode do you use most often?

[HoosierDaddy]

Just use the HI/LO buttons for 4x4, then it stays in that mode even when you shut off the vehicle.


I've used Sport a time or two and it did the trick as needed ... driving in high speed traffic that was slowing accelerating often.

Otherwise, for 4x4, I just push the button I need, Hi or LO and I'm done with it.

Slippery mode has been amazing this past week. Haven’t slid at all when it’s snowy and -5 degrees out.

Eco. My mileages nosedives in normal mode.

i don’t have sport in the badlands but I use eco so much that when I go back to normal it feels like a sport mode I can only imagine what actual sport mode feels like

I love a good poll.

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

I, honestly, forgot about them already. Need to get out on some trails to see if there's a noticeable difference.

Should normal really be a mode option on the poll? Seems obvious majority would use it.

I agree, but polls gonna poll.

Many here seem concerned with fuel economy and talk about using eco. I expected more people to vote for eco. I’m surprised that more use sport than use eco.

Poll seems to be suggesting that's a vocal minority of people who expected to have the coolest bauble in their driveway and not a Bronco.

Normal + Pedal Commander in Sport 0 mode. It’s really fun to drive like this and wakens up the 2.7L so much!

Eco does nothing for the manual.
I learned that the first month with mine.

The mode I most often drive in is not on the list. I use Raptor most. I can set the attributes for that mode. I built Raptor mode to be, Normal throttle, Sport Steering, Sport Suspension, Sport Exhaust, Auto start/Stop off, 2 wheel drive.

Suspension and steering are too soft in Normal. Love sport but it holds the gears to long

I’m like you. I rarely turn that hockey puck. I just select hi/lo, sway bar, lockers as needed. I would give ‘Rock Crawl’ an honorable mention as I do use that mode as a way to access the front tire cam in drive-thrus, car washes, etc.

I’d like to see a more complete description of all the parameter changes in each mode.

GOAT modes? Mine doesn't have that. Hell my switch doesn't even say anything....

That's right I remember now I don't have a Bronco yet. Pushing 2 years since my first order was accepted by Ford

I used “slippery” mode the other day too. Not sure I understand what it does exactly, other than putting it into 4A - which I can do separately.

Seems to make the throttle a bit softer.

Goat modes are bullshit marketing regardless of which trans you have.

Locking certain features to certain modes forcing you to scroll through pages of bullshit to get what you need is just plain stupid.

They ONLY exist to make newbies and mall crawlers think they are offroading gods.

4A in Normal

Eco… does it not give the best gas mileage? I am transitioning to slippery and mud and ruts though as Ontario gets more storms lol

 

[Dave4x4]

I use “still waiting “ mode exclusively… as in still waiting for the f&@*ing rockstars to build and deliver my original early reservations

 

[71to21-2DR]

I really like sport mode in my 2dr V6 Squatch. Actually shifts like a normal vehicle but with 10 gears.
Really wakes up that MBRP exhaust. It sounds kinda lame in eco and normal mode, but I checked my mileage yesterday and it’s down to 12 miles per gallon!
so I have to go back to regular.
My wife says I have to go back to driving the Subaru Outback four days a week!!!
Bummer!
