When you get tired of listing to those that don't understand your problem, go to the link listed below for a cure. You're not the only one that doesn't like Fords shift pattern.

to this day I can never understand why people want to go up a hill as fast as they do on the flats. take it out of cruise and give it a little more gas to help maintain speed.
To this day I never understand why people wouldn't want to go up a hill as fast as going on flat ground.

Not trying to start a war or degrading anyone, but that is an advantage of a diesel as they have a straighter torque curve and don't require near as much shifting.:)
