Just trying to understand my new truck.. Have 95 miles on it so far..
There is a noticable power surge at 2500 rpm or so.. 2400 nice and low key..2500 it feels like the computer does something and suddenly it's ready for business.. I liken it to the turbos spooling up on my ecoboost although not that drastic! I take it this is normal and something to do with variable timing or something like that?
Transmission... Does the torque converter lock and unlock in every gear?
2nd and 3rd seem VERY close together and after reading about towing and downshifting from 4 to 2 I was scratching my head, but now I think I understand why. I think if I am in the mountains Ill just use manual shift.
Absolutely fantastic truck so far..
I love the fact the Tailgate locks with the Key fob when you look the doors..
Running boards get pt on today at noon.
