Off-road+

[bobholthaus]

I just read in another thread about OR+ and I’m wondering if someone point me to where I can find more info on off-road+ And why you’d use it on the road? If this kind of like a “sport” mode for the 392 if you used it on-pavement?

Short answer is yes to sport mode. I just drove it in that mode on the way home from the store just a few minute ago. The transmission stays in lower gear both while accelerating and decelerating. I did not notice a throttle response shift but its very possible because it was a relatively short trip. It is very noticeable. Traction control turns off but you can turn it back on and stay in off road +

Wait, I can drive around town in Off-Road+? idk why I didn't think of that. Going to try that next time I'm out. I've only used it for launching.

I’d love to hear your guys comments on the paddle shifters. A couple of YouTube videos I watched said they aren’t that responsive. Any change in response in off-road+? I drive a Grand Cherokee Diesel as my daily driver, and use the paddles all of the time. I can only imagine that the paddles with the Hemi are going to be a world of difference for me. I’m guessing that in OR+ on a winding road, using the paddles has to be a lot of fun, and a lot of fun sounds.

Shifts better imo.. but there is a lot of delay

Since yall are playing the offroad+. See if yours will go into 4cyl deactivation mode in offroad +. I have not been able to get mine (which is good), but another poster on here said off road + does not prevent 4 cyl deactivation. Need more research.

It still enters 4 Cyl with OR+ on.
It is a little less often due to the throttle position and shifting points changing.
But it’s active.

Won’t let you enter cruise control

Here's a couple videos I did where you can hear the difference Offroad+ makes. Sound in the video doesn't do it any justice but it does have some nice pops and burbles... also shifts much better and feels a little "crisper" at wot

Little acceleration
