I concur, although I love the revs for in traffic between stoplights, just don't shift if its all slow moving and let it wind out.Originally posted by george graves View PostComment

My DD is a 2000 Dodge Dakota with a 4.7L V-8, 5 speed stick and 3.92 gears. 5th gear at 30mph, turning 800rpm.... I can bury the throttle and it starts pulling... Around 1500 it starts coming on hard. Gotta love it.
If I drive responsibly on the highway, I can pull 20mpg too. Not bad for 4WD.

I'm next to two huge mountain ranges - near I-5 - so I run into the truckers from time to time.
It seems that the motors on the trucks are not too advanced - but that all the truckers talk about their trannys, as if to brag about them. I guess with 1500 LBS tq - you can pull anything - unless it's up hill.Originally posted by Matt-BComment
