I wonder the thought process where GM and Ford having the same new 10sp trans, if this trans turns out to be a turd it could take out 2 companies instead of just one.

also I have had my ford experiences and they are not the leader in computer tech, they have their share of gremlins and not always willing to fix. When does the likes of Ford/Chevy get their transmissions to complicated beyond their brain power?

none the less the new Raptor looks to be one beast...





Good question, the joint venture 6 spd was a win for both company's ,so I hope the 8-9-10 speeds are as good. I wonder why they don't just go with a good IVT instead of as much as a 10 speed automatic. Maybe IVT cost or reliability is not where they want it yet? Ford seemed to have a good IVT for cars as far back as the Ford 500 .
