Yeah, I don't know whether that particular transmission was a dud, but it would upshift at the same rpm regardless of whether you floored the accelerator or not.

And it took an Act of Congress to convince it to downshift for passing. The whole car was so godamned bland and dull and worst of all numb, it felt like I was driving an overstuffed sofa.

It's ironic that a 3400lb, 160hp mini-ute was a better drive than a 2600lb, 140hp commuter car. :run:
