    Subbbbbbbb'd.

    I am confused though......does the transmission have to be in "S" mode for this device to word or just normal "D"?

    It has to be in S.

    I didn't see the instructions - must have missed them. Just watched the video though and it's 100% what I expected it to be. Good stuff.

    I don't think there were actual instructions when I looked. Just an explanation of what went where.

    But yeah there's a vid now. :)

    Well ain't that a bummer....

    So, I rarely use S. When I put it in "s" mode it's limited to 1st through 4th gear right? And id have to tap up twice to make 6th available?

    Id have to do that everytime I started the truck while using this product?

    What the hell... beep or not... I just ordered. I really like the concept of this design... and if it solves the problem it'll save me the cost of switching vehicles.

    Is it really that hard to move the shifter over an inch? I automatically do that now. :thumbsup:

    I don't think the two taps to put it into S6 will be needed. Since the device simulates user shifting, it'll simulate the shift from 4th to 5th (and then 6th) when those gears are necessary.

    Start the truck, move shifter from P into D and then S. Done.

    I suspect it'll be annoying the first few dozen times, and then become second nature.

    Price feels on point too.

    With people like OP working on it maybe we'll get a motor tune in the near future.


    Hint hint @OVTune

    People are hungry for it.

    Edit: We are hungry for it...

    Congrats on making a great product.
    I hope it works out for everyone, if it does you'll be rich.
    I will not be needing it as I chose the other available transmission that works.
    I jest. But really.

    Wow! NICE WORK!!!

    Just curious if there is such thing as an OBD splitter for those of us that use a scangauge for monitoring trans temps while towing.

    Believe it or not I have have hit 6th gear with my 3500lb trailer (I did it once just to see if the truck would hold 6th gear. It did but not easily.). Since the owners manual doesn't recommend towing in greater than 5th I'm interested in how often 6th gear might come into play while using this when towing.

    I'm really interested to see where this goes!!:popcorn:

    I'm totally excited for this product, and thanks so much OP for creating it. Finally some hope for our 3-G's. I will be sitting back and waiting for the reviews. I sure hope they are good then I will be ordering it. Nice simple install video btw. :thumbsup:
