Yep. When i retire and have a bit more freedom. But you might want to install a BD throttle booster with button. Because it makes mine crazy at 400% boost

Sorry stock to stock is a pull off requirement! That is the only way to compare apples to apples. Snoking

Ok, you're right. You can even have a 5 second head start to account for dead pedal.

Just realize the booster doesn't change the torque. Just the pedal response.

DP is noted to happen when one let's up and then steps down again. FYI, I will not let up to wait for you. :-laf Have not really noticed the problem anyway. How much ground will you loose shifting gears. Snoking

Good review.
Bottom line, each transmission has its own pros and cons. Which pro or con is most significant? That is very subjective, and up to whoever is buying the truck. All three transmissions are obviously fine choices, and one or the other should fill the bill for each person's want or need. I am happy with my choice, as it best fits what is important to ME. I hope each of you chose the transmission that best fits what you wanted. Some people feel the need to convince everyone that their choice is the best and everyone else is an idiot..
I have no use for such people's advice.

I wish you could option the Aisin in the 2500. Be nice to have the HD trans and the ride quality of the 2500.

OK, looks like the aisin is the way to go then?

 

[SMcGrady]

Lol! Yeah...

It all depends.. I tow a 13000 lb. 5ver. The air suspension is not for ride,but to level the truck. I would put the ride and comfort against any vehicle!. THe Aisin is a medium duty trans...

That's a nice load ^^^^^^^ let us know when you have a BIG load!

Curious why your front axle weight is so much less than mine? My wife and I in truck 7/8 tank fuel no tool box or hitch weighed 5,380#.

 

[Kirwin]

Nice load Greg. I know you are not afraid to drive that truck!

So with the factory air suspension on the 3500 they change the spring pack. That is the first I have heard about that. Does that mean it is softer riding than the 3500 without the air option

 

[brillmtb]

When you say the aisin is a medium duty transmission what does that mean relative to the alternatives
