5 spd auto would be sweet
what do u guys think . i had a 02 ranger edge that had the 3.0 and the 5spd auto and that tranny made that truck a blast to drive it kept the rmps up when accelerating and was just a nice tranny wish that ford would make one that could handle the f150's power would also possibly allow some changes in gearing to help with mpg lord knows we all could use some help with this.
also has anyone on here used the synthetic oil in your trucks and seen any improvement as far as mpg and such i know that ford recomends 5w20 but has anyone ran anything else?

I might be green with envy for the transmission, but not for that flimsy excuse for a truck. Besides, the 6L engine Chevy makes doesn't have enough torque for a full size pickup. That's why they have to use a 6 spd tranny. I'll stick with my 5.4L 3v V8 with 5 spd. auto. I don't want my transmission shifting every 5 mph...
