> Modern pickups have 8-10 speed transmissions. They do a better job of keeping you in the power band. This is so true. As someone who owns a fairly modern truck (2019 F250) that missed the good transmission by a single year. My truck would dearly love to have at least one more gear between 2nd and 3rd when I'm going up the mountain. I end up having to choose between trying to keep my inertia high (tough with corners) or give up and let it drop down to 35-40 so that 2nd gear isn't trying to tear the engine off the mounts. I may end up putting in shorter differential gears to work around that. Don't really want to fork out for a new truck. |
