What Mode and Height is Your Default?

[bmedfo1]

Offroad/ Rally/ High

This is the only mode that lets you keep the truck in the high ride high over 45 MPH. I like the added Hight when driving around town and makes the truck sit look and feel more like a midsize pickup/1500 than a compact ridline/ranger. I use AP on the highway and will use sport to have some fun with becase it the only option that gives full power but I hate how the truck look in the low setting. Looks like one of those mini trucks.

All Purpose, Standard Height, presently @ 46k miles in mostly AP/STD 90% of the time. Tire wear is nice and even on both my 21's and 20" AT's. Additionally I keep Regen on High, and only recently have I switched to Stiff for the suspension after that last OTA Update that made the suspension too soft for my liking.

I also like riding high but I've never done Rally mode on the streets. No issues? In LA traffic it's hard to get above 45 anyway.

I'm surprised at how many people are on stiff suspension. I set it and forget it.

AP, Auto, Soft; High Regen is my only non-default setting.

Someone above said auto height hurts treadwear? I'm 22,000 miles in and have very consistent even wear on all tires. Although, I'm sure it's true, because steering wheel angle changes slightly when going from standard to low, which only makes sense if toe changes.

+1 on this.

I guess I need to experiment with the other settings. Unless I'm going Off Road, I never think about adjusting the setting from AP, Auto, Soft, High Regen. If it ain't broke....

Before the latest update I was AP, Soft, Auto Height, High Regen.
After the latest update: AP, Stiff, Auto Height, High Regen

Shifted to stiff after last update. SC recommended AP Auto after I was having issues with the droopy front passenger side. I like how it auto drops to low over about 45.

The suggested fix to a sagging front end was just to have the truck adjust itself more? Sounds like a Band-Aid.

AP - Auto - Soft - High Regen

Sports, Stiff, Low, Std Regen (I find lowest lacks damping) 90% of time when I drive.

When my wife drives R1S (which is the most of the time - its her daily), its AP, Stiff, Low and Std Regen.

On road trips, its Conserve, Stiff, Low and Std Regen.

Still hoping for Low Regen on Conserve mode for long freeway driving.

I'm driving in All Purpose - Standard virtually all the time. I've talked to some folks who drive in All Purpose - Low the majority of the time. What mode and height do you drive in most of the time/as your default? And why? Comfort, effect on range, tires, other factors like parking...?

100% of my 11.5k+ miles in sport/lowest/stiffest/max regen modes.

Why? 0-60 in 3s and min drag for range.

Plan to finally rotate my tires (22") this weekend for the first time, so interested in seeing how modes above have affected treadwear all around.

AP, soft, high regen, Standard/Auto on paved roads, High on gravel roads (trying to reduce gravel chips just a tad)

We also operate in All Purpose Mode, standard height, and high regen.

All purpose, standard, high regen. I do have a question regarding high regen, does it produce more wear on the tires (I have the 21s)?
