Just a matter of Time/ auto transmission

[SlyBones]

Ronsram1999, if people are here to educate and learn etc. , then how are you any better. You dont advertise DTT because you are still holding a grudge against Bill K. It has nothing to do with their transmission not being worthy.



All of the transmissions in you list are worthy of consideration from guy/gals needing to update their stock automatic. DTT belongs on that list. While you may not choose them, you are not giving others the benefit of figuring out whats best for them. You are limiting them because of your grudge.



I have been here long enough and have seen you post your side of the story. You are entitled to have your opinion. I have no problem with that. I just think you shouldnt complain to much about cheap shots.

So Ronsram doesn't have the right to not include DTT as a recommended transmission vendor, no matter what he thinks of them.



I didn't know their was affirmative action for trans companies.



Thanks for setting us straight.

Slybones,

Not once in any of posts have I stated that DTT parts are junk, I choose not to support them on the bases of the kind of stuff that is going on right now in this thread. I also choose not to put other transmission parts dealers into my posts also for various reasons, did you forget about the other guys too? Do you put things into your posts that you do not support?

I did not say you said they were junk. What you said was you did not list any company that was not worthy in your opinion. And those were the words I used. Worthy.



You have the right to your opinion. I am ok with that. You can include or exclude anyone you want. Sorry for not being clear on that. IMO you contribute to these kind of threads, yet you complain about them. If you are gonna call others on it, you should expect the same.



Just seems to me if we are all here to learn and educate and all that stuff, how to we expect people to do that when all they get is biased opinions. Its hard to learn when you have to spend hours reading, then strip off all the crap, then try to fit the pieces together yourself because no one will give you the whole picture.



I am sure I am guilty too. And having typed this I guess in am not helping either. So Ron, practice what you preach. My appologies for posting in the first place. It did not help. My appologies to everyone else too. I will strive to do better.

I exclude DTT in my posts because I will not support anyone or venture that I feel is not worthy of such. I have researched all the companies that I put into my posts and the ones I include are the only ones worth mentioning in my opinion. Some times it is best not to say anything, some advice you could learn from.



Greg Boardman,

That was a cheap shot what you did to my post and subsequent my quote in your post, adding something to a quote that wasn't even there to begin with. Another reason I do not support DTT and their supporters, nothing but dirty tricks.



Most of the people come on the TDR to learn and help educate others that want to learn, If What Greg Boardman has done is the kind of thing the TDR is all about then we are all in for a rough ride. I demand retribution of some sort.



Greg Boardman, do not ever respond to one of my posts again. I do not consider someone that relies on trickery and deception to be much of a man and I can definitely do without you.



Ron

Ron,

I am sorry if I upset you. I was just trying to keep everything unbiased. Yes I do support DTT. They gave me a great product and I drive it very hard. I also pull much more weight than you stated you do on a daily basis. But that is not the point here. It seems to me you have a score to settle with someone other than me. I just added another website to your post to make it complete. Sorry if I mad you angry, that was not my intention.

Slybones,

If I post all the good things then I get slamed by someone, If I post the negative then I get slamed by someone, so type what you want, I will stick to what I have learned and defend myself for what I have learned.



I take it by you not pointing out what Greg Boardman did, that your statement towards me is just a personal attack. My god man cann't you even see that it is a flagerant violation of the TDR rules and guidelines what he done, yet you choose to chastise me, and then appologize for your actions.

As an owner of a stock transmission soon to be dead, I guess I learned all I am going to from this thread.

With the prices competitively close among transmission companies, I guess the easiest thing to do is throw all their names in a hat, pull one out and, thats the transmission I will get cause there is not a lick of helpful knowledge anywhere on this site about an aftermarket auto transmission's problems, strong points, or ... . well you get my point. You would think that people get a kickback for every post they make about how great their transmission is. Funny you seldom hear about any trouble they might have had, not to mention things that their transmission doesn't do that they wish it did, or things they would do over again given the chance. I've called and talked to every transmission dealer and they each say they have the best. Hell even my dodge stealer said they have the best.



Ok I'm done venting now. Going out to order my ATS converter, DTT valve body, and BD pressure loc, Mix in a little amsoil with my Mopar ATF, and replace the transmission filter with a K&N.



Woohoo, have fun guys.



edit: sorry if I didnt mention Goerend, Suncoast and anyone else. I ran out of transmission parts to swap.

I had a problem with my transmission ( you must have missed that post ) long version short a three dollar part ended up costing bd-power $231. 95 for my installer to diagnose and drive 60+ miles round trip to pick the part up, bd-power paid for it with no questions asked.



not to mention things that their transmission doesn't do that they wish it did,

I wish my transmission was sponsored so I didn't have to dish out the money for one. That and drive me around while I take a nap on vacations.



things they would do over again given the chance.

At this point I can not think of anything. Well maybe buy a manual transmission to avoid these posts. Na, I like my auto.



Sorry I couldn't resist.



Have a good day and God Bless,

Ron

Ron,

I probably did miss that post. With all the pi$$ing, moaning and :-{} that goes on, If I try to go around all of that, I probably missed some good information.

Its too bad that a person has to endure a migraine headache and crosseyes from reading all the BS just to try and get a thimble full of good information.

I agree 100%, it really is a shame.

I've edited the post with the quote in it to make the quote accurate and then add the dtt information. In the future the best way to add information would be in this manner. Since that is now resolved let's move on. If you wish to debate this further between yourselves please do so via PM's or email.

In view of the fact that you have done all of this research, etc. , I wonder if you would be so kind as to enlighten the rest of us poor uneducated slobs, or at least this poor uneducated slob, just what it is/was that turned you off DTT. After all, you've just said that, in your books, they were not worthy of consideration (or something like that) and I'm sure there are a lot of us out here who would like to avoid a major disaster.



Oh, and by the way, I'd appreciate it if you did not lecture me about saying or not saying anything on this or any other forum. With something in the order of 17 posts in over 3 years as a member here versus your close to 1000 posts I think it safe to say I'm not too outspoken.



To the rest of the TDR membership please bear with me; my dander is just up a bit.

 

[dcochran]

You're right, Steve. I saw your message too late. Case is now closed so far as I'm concerned.

 

[pwr2tow]

dcochran,

You think your dander is up, If you read the thread from the start you will see I just gave my experience with my transmission, it was you and Greg Boardman that called me out. Yes I have been on this board a long time and yes I have posted alot. No, I will never include a positive comment about something or some one I do not support.



I have stated many times what my feelings and findings are about the above mentioned transmission parts supplier and just about everyone of them threads have been removed due to the DTT supporters stateing things that are inappropriate to post on the TDR and getting the threads all deleted. I will not be drawn into a :-{} match with you about my findings and feelings about DTT. I will not take this into private e-mail with you either as I tried this with another member and he copied and pasted my post on the TDR, another cheap shot, from them supporters. You cry and say what you want about me, there is one thing I have learned in three years on the TDR, it doesn't matter what I say or you say be it positive or negative about a company, some guys just are not going to like it. Hell, I didn't even say anything about DTT in my original post and you got all bent out of shape because I excluded them.



Sorry Steve, but when some one calls me out please do not expect me to stay silent.



quote from dcochran, You're right, Steve. I saw your message too late. Case is now closed so far as I'm concerned.



dcochran, If you really beleive this is true you could have simply edited and deleted your post out.
