remember when
I started driving in the late 50's so I grew up with the muscle cars of the 60's and 70's. I never had a true muscle car but did have some big V8's. Back then you either had a stick or a 3 speed auto...

When I hit passing gear, the engine roars, the tach soars and the truck moves just a little faster, I swear it even slows down before it picks up speed. I think it these trannys with all the gears to choose from. Maybe better for mpg but forget about getting thru the yellow light in a hurry. The higher the gear you are in the more you notice this. Am I the only one to notice or care about this? I like to take off when I put my foot in it and not just hear a roar.
