Good to know I was wondering how good of gas mileage I would get with the new 1000-5 sounds like I will be fine on just about any day ride.
Does using the 4wd affect the mileage much on these units.
I have a 2020 pioneer 1000-3, on an average day of riding so far, I use 4wd as much and probably more than turf mode. Same with low range vs high range.

No, but your right foot does... if your in 4WD chances are you ain’t hauling butt... unless your in a mud hole or a ditch trying to get out,(right foot) then you might burn up some fuel. If your cruising fast, you probably aren’t in 4WD so you will burn more fuel... just remember, more right foot, more fuel.

Ride 100+ miles here regularly, usually starts flashing about 120 miles. Even so you still have 1.9 gal when starts flashing (35 mile window approx)

The more the merrier , you will have a good time. You have a long drive but glad you can make it.

Sounds like a GREAT time!! After we sold the Ranchers and decided the P1K-3 was the better toy for our comfort zone......we ride everyday! Will be my first trip to Tennessee and can’t wait!!! When you retire there’s no reason to hit the brakes!😁
