As I mentioned in an earlier thread, I just upgraded from an 03 SCab to an 06 SCREW. First of all, I know that the SCREW is considerably heavier than the old truck. What I have noticed is that when I put the truck in gear on level ground, either in Drive or Reverse and let off the brake, it does not move at all without giving it some gas. My old truck and the wife's Escape would roll somewhat. I also noticed that when stopped going up a slight incline of maybe 10 degrees, the truck will roll back when I let off the brake. Is this because of the increased weight of the truck or the gears (3.55).

 

Mine always did this also. It has been brought up in the past. Normal

 

Truck is heavier. Also, not sure if there is something computerized to retard power at idle...???

 

The 03 was the V6 and the new truck is a 5.4L

 

my 5.4 rolls forward. only incline i have down here is the boat ramp and she does rool back quite a bit, i think that is more then 10 degrees though.

it also jumps hen i put it in gear with the break on. I dont know maybe mine is broken

 

my 05 rolled before i got the edge and bumped the idle up some... it drove me crazy! my 98 always went forward when no brake was applied, even on a hill.
