That's the thing though...I don't really find it has much power off the line. The torque converter is sluggish...like the Cummins trucks. I'm assuming they do that on purpose because of the gearing to protect the rest of the driveline.
I'm happy with the truck for the most part.
You know, I'd rather see a Cummins 4BTA in these trucks with way less HP...way more torque & who cares about noise or vibration? Wouldn't the fuel savings make up for it?
It would for me Michael.
