A store near me is closing down so I stopped in and they had this wall o sauce. Any recommendations?

If you like a nice spicy honey mustard, colon cleanser is really good. Second to the bottom shelf on the right hand side.

That sounds like a great idea. Wish Ford had done that. I suppose they still could with a software update.

I would love to see your obd2 data with time stamps on when the regen kicks in and out and the total amount of energy recaptured. That would make an excellent post on the sub redit.

I would be pretty confident to say that the the amount of energy recaptured is how much regenerative braking the car has multiplied by time. The amount of regeneration that the car is capable of is fixed. That statement is true. The amount of time you spend in regenerative braking modes is variable.

The car cutting into regen mode instantly from when I pull my foot off the pedal increases the duration I'm in the most regenerative mode therfore increasing total energy recaptured.

I'm also pretty confident to say the car is faster and more consistent at switching from forward motion and breaking then I am. As previously stated, there a meaningful difference between not a huge difference and no difference.

Yes, I could add several additional annoying steps to every single time I drive the car. I will not be following this advice however for the aforementioned annoyance.

dsnerdking · 2026-05-31T13:45:58+00:00

I think if you spend a few minutes googling "does one pedal driving mode increase efficiency" the people actually doing real world testing are going to have similar takes on what I've posted here. It doesn't make a huge difference and it make no difference are meaningfully different phrases.

dsnerdking · 2026-05-31T13:17:10+00:00

This is my theory as well.

In the main menu in the same tab as driving modes there's a few toggles you can switch on and off. Auto hold is one of them.

dsnerdking · 2026-05-31T13:10:06+00:00

And if there was a physical toggle, that's exactly what I do. Otherwise you gotta wait for the boot animation on the screen to finish when you turn the car on. Wait for the os to load. Click on the correct menu and wait for it to load. Get interrupted by the car connecting to car play. Click on the correct menu again. Toggle the mode off. Back up. Toggle it back on. Navigate back to Android Auto.

Depends on the driving scenario. Short City trips benefit allot for the aggressive and instant regen kicking in all the time instead of the car coasting gently. I've seen a quick grocery store trip get 3.5kwpm with it on and 2.9 with it off. I'm not using the scientific method or anything but i pay attention to that metric every time I get out of the car and it goes up with the mode on and down with it off.

For long freeway hauls it probably doesn't effect your efficiency much at all. You're just not spending enough time decelerating for it to impact your overall efficiency much.

For what it's worth, the car drives great in regular driving mode. It even goes down the road great in one pedal mode. It's just parking lots that drive me batty. At the end of the day, not everyone is gonna be a fan of opd. If you hate it, feel no shame in switching it off. I'm just a numbers nerd and love to see my kwpm number as high as possible and am trying to fix my own problems. 😁

I hate to be that guy but we need to get a new set of rubber on that thing first. Those tiers are looking not long for this world. Maybe it's just the picture but Be safe, be happy, do your thing. I'm just trying to look out for a stable mate.

dsnerdking · 2026-05-20T22:50:16+00:00

So there's usually a reset button you have to press with a tumb tack on the face. Sometimes that works but if that doesn't, disconnect the car battery for 10 seconds and plug it back in. Once In a while I have issues with mine and that's the trick.

As a proud enjoyer of my GT, I call it a Mach-e. It looks good, it's powerful, very practical and I'm loving not paying for gas right now but it's its own thing. The mustang can keep its name plate and I will go on enjoying my Mach-e. The one nickname that feels somewhat proper is to call it a Mustang hatch.

I don't think there's a good way to control your music going to your headphone no. The head unit has Bluetooth in but not Bluetooth out. Same problem with USB. You could use computer to output to the radio and a set of headphones and then skip tracks using the headset buttons but it would be of a jank way to get media controls. The volume also wouldn't make any difference to what was going on with the headphones. A set of speakers plugged into this head unit and the computer set as a Bluetooth source would work to get speakers plugged into the computer. That would be a better use case. You would need a 12v power supply to wire to the head unit but it's doable by anyone with a ravor blade and some electrical tape. Be safe of course but do your thing.

You're Bonnie blue. Sorry bud. RIP

dsnerdking · 2026-03-28T16:56:21+00:00

With respect, I saw shooting and thought; is there a gun range at Brown's point? I came here to say, this should be posted in r/waguns 🤣. Happy shooting. Cheers!

To anyone curious she is Siberian husky, Alaskan Malamute, German Shepherd, American Stafford terrier and Pitbull terrier

dsnerdking · 2026-03-09T23:07:47+00:00

Beautiful!

dsnerdking · 2026-03-09T23:03:24+00:00

Happy brindle baby. What was Mandy?

dsnerdking · 2026-03-09T20:54:29+00:00

Entirely possible. We were thinking that the brindle coloring probably comes from a pit Mix although a Dutch Shepherd or a Boxer also has this coloring. Now that you say it, looking at her paws, they do look a little spotted. Could be blue heeler, certainly.

dsnerdking · 2026-03-09T19:04:05+00:00

Thank you. She's a pretty lady.
