Seems like every one needs hug .
I respect MR M he is a great brain power here. I like he just remembers Me . Aw gee.
As for e4od being a bad tranny not really . I buy trucks with bad tranny and fix 6 last year .I just say whats true the e4od is no C-6 in reliability department . Thats why I say they can be problematic department . And at 120000 miles you may as well figure it will fail soon . Thats the norm Miles according to my new and very happy with tranny shop and a couple others I ask . I asked about coasting as MR.M is right about engaging of clutches . And they said if foot is off gas and slowing down no real problem.
Yes I had problems with my curent personal truck but they were shop related (and i was venting)Like putting old clutches back during rebuild which was problem on my truck this year.
I put 20-30000 miles on a year with load on trucks that have 90000+ on them when I buy em . So I am going to wear them out sooner or later even with up keep .
Good luck Chris

Okay after the test drive my ringing noise is gone! 
YIPPEE!!! But the vibration is still there...
Technically, my truck hasn't STOPPED vibrating since I blew my auto hubs out last winter (some of you know about that story) but it seems a bit worse now... Might be in my head... I'm so sick of this vibrating truck!!!

Hahaha. Even though, I wouldn't consider that to be picking on.. that would seriously anger me. Just because I hate people messing with my stuff. Most of all my truck. Lol.

Hey Chris I'm sorry I locked the hubs in for you . Next time I'll put in in 4x4 to , maybe crank the wipers and blower on high . If you figure out how I did it from 3000+ miles away let me know
Glad you think we r perfect . But I'm not
