Default New gears and tires...shift points..

Since DC was so short sighted it did not include the revs per mile programming for tire size, how will changing gears and tire size affect the auto's shifting etc.

No problems with shift points. It does lack power around 60+ mph. Mine has 4.10 gears.

I would agree with 60, but once you are over 65-70 it scoots along good. I do a 20 mile commute each day on the Interstate. I also have 4.10s in a sahara
