Description of the problem | The transmission is severely limited by torque management. If you step on the gas pedal the truck barely moves. It moves at its own pace instead of being under your control. This can creates some very dangerous merging situations where you are trying to merge with traffic and the truck decides it won't move. You end up half way committed and half way not. |
