Those tires are 2 wide for that rim. I bet you would get the same times on a 225 sized tire due to contact patch.

She may need to go back to the dealer, after 100mi the reverse lockout plate is misaligned (port installed short shifter is probably the cause).

Doubtful. Autocross almost always favors wider tires.

Agreed. and this isn't even that pinched LOL. Tire temps were pretty flat across the tread on a 30s course

Yea, had Ford committed to a real redesign of the interior I'd have kept it and just had my Ranger and my Rx7.

Overall the truck was phenomenal off road, a nice camping platform, and I got about 22-23mpg combined.

Sad Panda. Just put in my order for a MY22 Ranger XLT 2WD as a new DD and keeping my FRS as a track only car.

Ah no sad panda. It was a great DD, comfy, pulled plenty of trailers, did well camping and general off-roading. I had an XLT 302A with Tech, tow, and fx4 packages.

Lots of good tech in the truck, adaptive cruise, extendable blind spot monitoring to cover the whole trailer, etc
The powertrain is great too, I'm a big fan of the 10 speed auto.
The interior is a Ford truck. It's durable, the factory cloth is durable. Sync 3 works fine too. Was a great place to wake up and hit the gym at 5am, or take my other half out for a slushie.

My real issue is that I had the truck and I still have an Rx7. I wanted a turn-key manual car that was fun to drive up here in the Mountains of Western North Carolina. That also didn't require me to fab any parts up when something breaks. Sounds like you've got a turn-key fun car already.

Got up early to enjoy some snow ❄️ fun before they plowed the roads. This car is a much fun as previous generation to drive in snow!

Swapped the cabin, door, and trunk lights with LEDs. De-badged the trunk. Installed a dashcam, which was surprisingly easy to run behind the glove box and up the A-pillar. Still haven't driven the damn thing with all the snow.
