Sweeeeet!!! I wonder if a diesel will be acompanying that 6 speed???

 

that would be undeniably be the best friggin truck ever!

 

I would have to agree Hey I read that you were going to help etrevino put his AAL in today? How did that go?

 

great news.....

 

Doesn't say anything about it being a manual or auto. I'm gonna guess they are referring to a 6-speed automatic, which I think is pointless in a truck. I'd rather see a 5-speed manual.

 

Hardly. I'll take either a 5 or 6-speed, just not this damn 4 speed transmission.

 

Man, i just got my truck not that long ago, i really don't want to buy another one, or maybe i do.

 

it was yesterday! it came out good i am satisfied. i just need some coilover for the front now.

 

GEARS, MORE GEARS

 

Damn, guess I stand corrected. I was told it'd be a 5 speed slushbox.

They're building it at Livonia, so it's probably gonna based off the 6R60 in Exploders and Mountaineers, and so far in those applications it's been a pretty trouble free transmission.

 

Of course, the last big automaker to adopt 6 speed...great.

 

I hope it's not too good to be true.

 

Not til 2009

 

Quintin, don't you work at a dealership? Don't you know the dealers are always the last to know?

Now if we only new the name of the new tranny...6R85 maybe? That means 425 lb/ft of capability for the tranny baby!!
