Welcome to FTE

The upside is, hwy MPG is vastly improved when in O/D!

The downside is, parts for the T-85N are all obsolete, some can be found NOS, some cannot be found.

Personally, I would think O/D would be a big selling point. 'Course I'm partial...because I owned a 1965 F100 352 with T-85N for 44 years (3/1965-11/2009).
