Well mine must be right then just trying to get an idea how accurate this gauge is it was 50 outside and the trans got up to 115ish

On a trans, yes there is. yesterday it wasnt towing with 140 degree temps. Late at night driving home from class there are times my trans won't even hit 100

LongrangeLauber · April 9, 2014

It was a joke but below 100 would be insane. I don't like mine much over 200. 140 is normal for me in about 60-70 degree temps.

Mixed. Couldnt be too rough. Not my trailer. My truck had the easiest access to it

I needed mine for the dunes so i can keep an eye on how bad torque management kills this thing on hills.

You also have more ice than Antarctica.

Yeah, that gets old really fast. REALLY FAST. Just glad the major ice skipped us this year.

Driving simulator. Wheel fights you and it replicates the movement in turns, acceleration, and braking

LongrangeLauber · April 9, 2014

Yes. And it was awesome!!!

When climbing hills torque management likes to kick in and cause the trans to shift erratically between gears because it's fighting to go up hill.

For example taking off and climbing a large hill it will go first second first second back and forth because it gets between rpms. There's a certain rpm where it will think oh I need to shift and that can be halfway up the hill. It's hard to explain but if you rode with and heard it you'd know. It's not like these older chevys like my friends have that will just blast up the hill in one gear.

Torque management is supposed to keep you from breaking the tires loose but it's a bitch to drive with on sand because of the amount of power it takes to go anywhere on hills.
