waaay too much electronics on these trucks for me. if led lights can cause problems with shifting and such that is just crazy! i guess i have to look into this further as the shifting up on this truck sucks so bad i have to use the toggle everytime i tow or there is no power and i get really mad i even bought this truck.

just had the truck in for tie rod and other issues. they flashed 4 new updates. 1 dealt with the horrible shifting and i must say it is fixed. it is so much nicer to tow now. it actually does what it should do.

One of the flashes allowed the truck to regenerate in city driving scenarios instead of highway only. My highway mileage went up quite nicely and my city mileage went down considerably. and unfortunately i mostly do city. i am seeing 10.5-11 average around town. But it really does tow so much better and even unloaded it shifts better. it holds the gears much longer and now does not up shift prematurely.
