I don't like it at all, its too quiet. I was going 70 with the cruise and on an upgrade it downshifted and I could barely feel it or hear it. WTF.

LOL, I love it, it towed like a dream. SO quiet and smooth it was ridiculous. The downshift was extremely quiet and smooth so I will have to be careful of that. The temps were a little higher but still within range.

I agree with not being able to hear or feel it! WTF kind of fun is that, If you are gonna have a diesel I want to be able to hear it!

Glad you like it Tom! I knew you would.

I do love it, it towed great but if I wasn't paying attention I do think I would have missed the downshift. It was nothing like the 7.3 at all.....Like you said with the 7.3 you can hear it....
