[RWhites]

Right to choose

It's all about our right to choose, which transmission, which gear? Some people just have more to choose from.

NV5600... Reverse was still in the "old" place... not the location for the "new" 6 speeds... .

Are you a BOMBER?

A big thing to consider when buying 5, or 6 speed is, are you wanting to BOMB your truck. I have The 6sp. , and every time I look at upgrades, it is always a smaller value in HP vs. the 5sp. Something with the HO program I guess.

Not so with injectors and pump mods . They may have the edge (pun not intended) with the electronic stuff, but once you get past that, they are pretty much equal.
