Something looks wrong above. How do you spell "Gauge"?

One thing that did worry them was the shifting. I had noticed that it was quite a bit firmer before without towing, but they said it was snapping their heads with the car behind them. Also they said they thought they heard a small squeal each time from the trans. Should I be worried?

F!!!! THE EDGE
I wasted 379 F'ing dollars on that trash. Pickup was slower, detonated left and right (even with 93 octane)
Now I have to try and return the pos to the ebay seller
As for there tech support........................well they cant support ****. Its ridiculous.
But oh well, I was a sucker and wasted the money.

You guys waste so much money on these trucks, just leave them alone and use them for what they were designed for. If it was a Lightning it would be a different story, but c'mon.
