I used cruise almost the whole time once out of the city.

It didnt hunt at all even on hills.

Very impressive.

I believe the transmission logic is sound and when you combine that with the massive torque right off idle it just doesn't need to hunt to maintain speed- When it did drop it held the gear for a while.

Supposed to be in this week and everything I've read and including in here has persuaded me to pull the trigger. Only thin is I am not giving my 08 diesel away. Let you guys know when I get it and what I think.

While fuel milage continues to climb with each tank, overall average since new: 20.6 mpg, LOTS of power

No towing has been done to date.
