I have an 04 H.O. with 3:73 gears and the 6 speed. I have mentioned this before that I hate this transmission, it seems I am in the minority about that. I don't like the way it shifts. My 90 diesel had the getrag 5 speed and I liked it and my 99 had the 5 speed and I liked that one. It seems Like I Can't shift it fast enough to use all that power and when I shift it laziliy I sometimes have trouble because the throws are so long. I don't like the ratios either. Anyway, I would assume you will need to rebuild an automatic a few times over the life of the truck. about the mileage, my truck is probably not broken in yet. I still haven't hit 3000 miles on it. I usually drive a work truck and not likeing the 6 speed I usually don't jump in it for the trips around town on days off. The truck just sits in my shop. If I wouldn't loose my shirt on the deal I'd trade it in. They ruined that the trucks are costing 10K lkess than when I bought mine in jan 04
