Keep in mind that they all have the option of shifting manually. I recommend it when taking tight curves and especially on grades to go manual and downshift before both. That's pretty much it. Also when coming to stopped traffic or on off ramps. It doesn't always downshift fast enough and you're in too high a gear for the situation. Can feel like the truck is pushing you toward #### you definitely don't want to hit at highway speed. Slow down, manually downshift if necessary.

Otherwise they are great in traffic and also when climbing grades.

Hey brother. have you driven any 2017 trucks at all?

Well I should enjoy the trucks. Just a little disappointed because I need time experience on the manuals. They have ten speeds too though. Where do you work
