Hi, Marty.
I talked to GV about one of their overdrives, and they told me that, due to the W-500 being rated as a two-ton truck, they would not honor the warranty if anything broke. Didn't seem to matter to them about the powertrain at all.
And, yeah, going 57 mph (the highest speed I could obtain) was certainly... engrossing, to say the least. I was more interested in getting a little better than 5 miles per gallon.
