I bought a new service truck in 06 had ann Allison put in it.
Told everyone that "It was smarter than me and knows when to shift"
I've driven a few Allisions, none of which where very good at shifting, every one still had me swearing either "why the f*ck are you shifting?" or "why the f**k aren't you shifting?". Pickup autos are much better and I wouldn't bother with a manual in one, but i've never driven any automatic with a loaded vehicle that would shift at the right time, especially for hills.
