Help! On side of highway… trans issues

[Grumpaw]

I think we found the issue. Maybe its not the truck, but the driver. Its not a sports car its a truck. Wring them out all day and they fall apart. I know from experience. This is why I will never buy used again.....

OMG !!! Owned my Ranger for almost 3 years now.....and now your telling me it's a TRUCK !!!!
I had no idea !!!!

If it won't do 90 on the highway, with a turbo, it's a POS

Get out of here with that ?

90 is no big deal. Try doing 85 on the PA turnpike and count the seconds till you get tailgated lol.

Been over 90 a LOT of times passing people and not afraid to do it. Still pulls at that speed!

(I was actually going 110)

In all seriousness though, the trans always seems to act super weird after touching the speed limiter.

Sometimes I'll slow down to 90 and cruise for a while, no issues so far...

remove the speed limiter then. Weirdness goes away. I never have one. Removed them all just in case.

I think you meant to say until parts start to fall off. We don't serve because we're drunk, we serve to stay on what's left of the road.

I meant swerve!... Maybe?

Just because it will, doesn't mean it should, and even if it does, we don't really know for how long he did it.

In any case, I was just saying I wouldn't have done it.

Based on having once lived in PA and having to use "America's 1st superhighway" I'd say your chances of being ticketed are exponentially greater than being tailgates. State police everywhere on that outdated pos perpetually under construction roadway.

Thank you for your service.

Never got a ticket. Never saw a cop. Imo it's the wild west. Maybe you saw the Giuliani version.

Been north of 90 a few times going to Vegas with mountainous incline. Man Ford quality is getting a beating.

Slow acceleration, only maintained for 30 seconds. Now sure, if I was throttle down all the way; totally different story. I don’t expect things to go sideways doing what it’s built to do.
