RPM's dive when letting of gas

No need to lug the engine around... plus if cruising around 35/40, id rather not be in OD if i need to mash the gas for anything. Sometimes the trans seems to think before it kicks down. These seconds may matter.

I spent most my time in manuals and i just cant get around being ok with lugging the engine.

 

I noticed mine doing this also, I'd been wondering about it. Glad I'm not the only one and it seems to be a "normal" thing?

 

Blown gas pedal gasket.

 

Is this a joke?

 

Yes

 

Haha I figured it had to be

Considering your transmission is completely computer controlled , there is a proper way to diagnose it .
You need a scanner to verify everything is working fine .
Everybody says your complaint is normal but they didnt test drive your truck .
Judging by your explanation , it may be normal , however , there can be issues with the engine that make it feel like a transmission problem .
Your accelerator pedal is drive by wire ......No cables to the throttle body from your gas pedal which creates some latency .
Run a diagnostic scan and post back

 

I had I diagnostic done on my truck several months back and nothing was found
