TRANS SHIFT PROBLEMS
Back when I first got my truck, it had shifting problems. Sometimes it would not shift into the next gear. It did it especially when you got on it. Any one experience this?

I think that the problem that you are experiencing is due to the over-consumption of cheap beer and lack of responsibility for your small mind. I think they have support groups for people like you who trash others and then ask the same people for help. Are you nuts?

Yes Cloaker, I stand corrected. Its probably time to forgive our new friend and act like adults now.
Rusty, with out the info Cloaker requested, lets talk about the computers adaptive learning capabilities in the newer F150's (assuming that is your case)as far as shift points and such. This may explain your observations? It was learning to compensate and took a while? Maybe.

Asking for help now? You are something...
Have you checked your fluid level? How many miles are on your truck? Have you changed the fluid and filter yet? Others have had a similar problem as you..changed the fluid and filter..and the problem went away.
In the future...be more specific so we have a better idea of your problem.

RustyS....Sometimes it pays to be humble and not talk smack! When you come around to our way I'm sure you'll be greeted more friendly. Remember, "to each his own". Don't downgrade another man's, or in Tina's case woman's pride and joy.

Asking for help now what is in the water you drink any way. Since I have the 4.6 that means you don't want my help so you can go to Hell.
