torqshift or not?

what is the difference between the torqshift tranny and the 5 speed auto? why do both cost the same on the sticker? seems like ford is trying to mislead some people into thinking they are one in the same; equal price and all.

how do you explain why it does not say torqshift on every superduty window sticker? you would think they would want a new feature listed. also in the superduty literature it lists an available torqshift tranny.? is there a chance that they developed a lighter duty 5 speed?
