    Might not be worth the $175 to you but I actually like the ShiftSense Pro. Makes the transmission act like how I feel it should.

    I didn't say it wasn't worth it. I wasn't even talking about shiftsense.

    Truck was probably serviced in the Lexis bay where the top service Techs work.

    5k service is also known as the sunshine service. They take it in the back, open the hood to let some sunshine on it and then bring it back out :D

    I did discover that putting it in sport mode and shifting to 6th gear and leaving it there makes the truck downshift and changes the nature of the beast. Still not the same as learning mode, but I also noticed I have averaged 2 mpg better- ( according to my fully app over the last 3 tanks) as a bonus, I have actually been able to get on the throttle a whole lot more and have a lot of fun!!

    Not in your head. Same thing happens to many. Likely cleared the ECU (battery disconnect) and it behaved well for a time and then slowly lurched backwards again... annoying, but "normal" from what I've experienced. I won't accept it, but it is the fact many experience right now.

    They probably have your tires over inflated.
