My experience in driving TorqShift-equipped Fords is:
1. F350 4x4 with Bigfoot slide-in camper
2. E450 30-ft Class C
In regular Drive, I found the shifting "manners" of both transmissions to be nicer than the 4R100 in our own Class C.

So, in the Pickup, TH was "interesting"
In the C, I found it "helpful"
EDIT - Both were V10's, so the Pickup had the 3-valve 362-hp engine while the C had the 2-valve 305-hp version. The C still had adequate power even on the grades into and out of the Kenai in Alaska.
