My Dak seems faster and more responsive when I take the overdrive off. Whatever works I guess. Give it a try.

The stock programming likes overdrive WAY too much. I've never seen such a short shifted tranny program.

Your dealer can fix it.

I say you take Chevy' fastest midsize truck the S-10 Xtreme and put it against Dodge's fastest midsize truck the Dakota R/T.

It would be a laugh hugh?

Thats why I love Dodge.

No not really the 94 s10ss gets at least 15.2 and the r/t gets high 14 low 15 and that a 4.3 vs 5.9 so you have to give the 4.3 some respect
