Sport mode amazes me!
 
I've had my truck for a little over a year now and just recently started playing around with sport mode. ( I pretty much forgot it was even there) I can't believe how much more responsive the truck is when it's engaged.
Does anybody run around in sport mode all the time? If so, does it affect your gas mileage much?

I use it quite a bit, and yes it will cost you a couple miles per gallon but to me it’s worth it!

I find it makes it nicer to drive around in town and better than tow mode when towing, yes it will use more gas but way more fun.

It would be nice if sport mode also had launch control.

Super newb question. Just bought a used 2017 sport a few hours ago....where is said sport mode button?

On the bottom of the shifter, push it twice you will get an S on your dash!

Thanks. I gave it a google. Figured I’d pop my forum cherry with a dumb question off the rip. It can only go up from here now.. haha

I only use it when I need to drive aggressively. I get on this particular entrance ramp every day that is way to short. In my 07 5.4 I've pulled off to avoid getting smashed into.

In my boost I smash it and keep it in sport mode that stretch of interstate because early in the AM even the slow lane can average 80.

A couple miles per gallon? :eek: That's a lot!
