Default Gimme a break!

C'mon Mach 1. Does it look like I have stock gears?? Yeah....I'm just some little chickensh*t who is scarred to drive in overdrive....OHHHHH....NOT OD......I'M SCARRRREEEEDDD.

It's been a long time since I had stock gears, and most guys with AOD's have long since upped to 3.73's or 4.10's. Turning those rpm and depending on how they've got the TV adjusted, OD comes much earlier than it normally would. I know from MY experiences, shifting back and forth into OD while cruising around town is NOT what I want to happen. It takes me completely out of my powerband, and if I need to accelerate, I have to wait for the tranny to downshift into thrid before I can do much. Anyway, this argument has gotten a little out of hand over nothing. If I want to drive around "wasting gas and putting more wear and tear on thier engine" *cough cough BS*, that's what I'll do. If you want to drive around in OD in town....go for it. It's your car and you can do as you wish.

I'm out.
