What Drive Mode Do You Use Most?

[JohnFoxeSheets]

If anyone is going for a psychology degree they can now perform a correlation study between this poll and one for favorite ice cream. My hypothesis is 2PD engage correlates with vanilla ( my favorite!)

Would be interesting to see if there are any positive correlations between drive mode and car color...

I wonder if GT/PE owners drive in Whisper more often than non-GTs.

I use 1PD Whisper in my GT since it smooths out the acceleration around town but I still get 100% power when I want. The times I've driven the 4X, it was Unbridled because it otherwise felt too pokey off the line.

I have a GT and I almost never leave unbridle!

I agree with your philosophy, but would suggest a few changes to simplify implementation:

Twisty road with no advance traffic = 1PD Unbridle
Twisty Road with a car in front going reasonable fast = 1PD Unbridle
Twisty Road with a car in front going slow = 1PD Unbridle + PedalontheRight Glare (tm) on
Going to the store = 1PD Unbridle
Highway long trip = 1PD Unbridle

This philosophical difference reminds me of a joke:
An Old Bull and Young Bull were on the top of a hill looking down on a herd of cows. The Young Bull says, "Let's run down the hill and mate (euphemism) with a cow!" The Old Bull looks over at the Young Bull and says, "Let's WALK down the hill and mate with all the cows."

I'm in 1PD Whisper most of the time in my GT/Non PE. As mentioned above, the power is still there when I want it and the experience is smoother the rest of the time. Although, I've gotten the "Drive mode Unavailable " glitch a few times lately - guess it's time to search the forum on that

Does suspension change with drving mode? I always use 1P U and find one particular bridge to highway transition near me that tosses me up off the seat.

Only if you have a GTPE with MagneRide. All other Mach-E's have fixed suspension tuning.

Interesting. I'll have to try whisper for BlueCruise. It's definitely a little aggressive in Unbridle.

This is exactly why I use 1PD Whisper. I used to use 1PD Unbridled but Adaptive Cruise is MUCH smoother in Whisper. And I can still mash the go pedal and rocket away from stoplights. (I don't have BC.)

EDIT: No bridle.
