2017 GMC 6.0 Vortec - Manual Shifting?
I notice when I am towing my RV, my truck seems to try and down shift sometimes when climbing a hill before it should. Do any of you guys manually shift to get more power or save gas in these situalt...

I've tried to use Manual mode to manually shift up through the gears... and it doesn't work well. It's not like the "flappy paddle" shifters on performance cars. The reaction is severely delayed.
That's because it doesn't shift up, as mentioned it's a range select only.
I can only speak to the effectiveness of the ford manual mode, and it just shifts when you tell it too, up or down. I often just lock in 5th, set the cruise, and enjoy the relaxed ride.
