    Ironically I love my k03 285/70/17, I also had that size in k02 and the k03 were a big improvement. Maybe they need to do a road force balance to catch something wrong with them. Man, I am not gonna lie, as much as I love my 2021 Ranger Tremor (light mods), if one of these landed on my lap at MSRP I might be hard pressed to pass it up. I am hoping there is a black out interior option for 2025 though like the F150 Raptor. I wasn't a fan of the vertical screen but seeing it in use with nav pulled up, I think it is growing on me too.

All the shops on that list are authorized ford performance dealers; and as long as an ASE certified mechanic in the shop installs the tune with an invoice to be sent to ford for records you’re good. Sorry about your luck if none of those shops are close to you. I probably had the most lucky experience. I had first batch delivery of the tune and the shop that installed my tune was 2 miles down the road from my work.

    • @TheTopher
      @TheTopher  Месяц назад

      Honestly the only A/T I can recommend is the Firestone Destination X/T. Amazing winter traction, good ride and tread wear, and lightweight. Need to test some other options here soon.
      These KO3s ride pretty rough, noise is good, traction is fine in all scenarios, but not blown away by any aspect of the tire. It looks amazing, and is a good jack of all trades. But nothing revolutionary over the other options imo.

    The MPG's are gunna be the same unless you use the extra power. The engine operates exactly the same as it did before at part throttle.

    •  Месяц назад

      The computer is likely putting in more timing advance with the higher octane fuel, that increases the efficiency.

    • @Jay-me7gw
      @Jay-me7gw Месяц назад

      Yeah sure but the RR is meant to run premium fuel on the stock tune too. You could run 87 but you are not making the advertised power numbers.
      This tune won’t make any mpg gains vs the stock tune on premium

      I would agree, but GoPro pulled the typical American company move by becoming big and name brand then abandoning their product. GoPro had YEARS to fix their glitchy software, overheating issues, battery life, and horrible UI and they haven't.
      Literally 2 competitors (DJI, insta360), who have started _way_ later than GoPro, have both caught up and even surpassed them in all categories mentioned above in a short time cause they listen to their consumers. IDC where it's made or if it's a name brand. You snooze, you lose.
