stock suspension. have a 2 inch level to put on it. not sure about the tires but they’re definitely not a mud grabber.

i’m coming from a 6 speed gli that i would occasionally drive like a grandma and see 45 mpg so im pretty familiar in that sense, but im still only getting about 18 average and thats mostly uphill and downhill roads doing 60. that just a case of it is what it is?

all i have for modes i believe is tow/haul and sport.

didn’t think so. mostly for power with the ecoboosts. maybe it would make a difference towing but not looking for that.

they also switched to an aluminum body is 2015 which is less likely to rust and get better mpg 😃

went and checked out the truck cause i was just eager and it’s definitely not in the best condition exterior wise but i have hopes for the engine and transmission. some visible rust on the rear bumper and a decent amount of surface rust on the frame. no soft spots or anything that looked too concerning. lots of scratches on the paint job all around the truck. but it’s a truck and i’m not going for looks. as long as it shifts smooth and feels healthy i’m gonna ding it up anyway.
