Those of you that are looking at the difference in # of gears as a strictly performance issue are missing the boat. Its also about overall driving experience. Running lower RPMs over many miles (not necessarily up the Ike) is simply more relaxing, not to mention the advantage it offers in fuel economy.
I have an 8 speed in my Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel, and the 10 speed in the Expedition MAX. They are both GREAT transmissions. Neither have a problem hunting for gears, and the overall lower RPMs they run just improves the driving experience. I have no doubt that the 10 speeds in the SuperDuty and GM HDs are the same way. RAM is missing the boat here.
