    These turds are just as slow in manual....it won't rev over 1500 in manual. Little 'Ol ladies even get hostile when I take off from a light with a load on.

    EXACTLY!!! Yeah, sure the will run 68. But most trucks out there take off faster loaded than these do empty! I do a lot of city driving, and I couldn't tell you how many red lights I've ran that I was the first one in line for and took off as soon as it turned green!!! Makes no sense!
