    I have the 4 speed plus OD automatic tranny. It only happens in first gear shifting to second. The truck feels like it is shifting at a higher RPM than it should be, and then the shift isn't particularly smooth. This is happening when I am not even pressing on the pedal that hard. I would expect it to shift high if I was slamming my foot on the gas. There is no clanking or associated noise and the shift isn't rough, but something feels wrong.
    Background...crazy ex-girlfriend threw shifter into "R" while I was driving at about 15mph....she is lucky to be alive. That did cause some grinding noises.
    Basically, I don't know if I am being too overcritical and I am looking for something wrong with the truck after that incident, or if the truck always shifted like that. Damn thing only had 4K on it when she did that.

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    there is a TSB that deals with the rough shifting from 1 to 2 around 20 mph. they reflash the ECU.

    Thanks. I'll have the dealer do it when I take it in for the drivers seat and the rear leaf springs....
