I got this new Ford Five Hundred with the 6-speed. The service department did not seem to know what to say. They tried to contact the service manager but he was gone for the day.
I would appreciate any advice on gearing down this 6-speed automatic. Its only got Low, Drive, Reverse and Park on the selector. I heard something about using low gear above 30 mph. I tried that coming down a overpass and the revs quickly went to over 4000 rpm.
I wonder what would happen at 40 and 45 like I did in other automatics that had a Overdrive button to shut off for 3rd gear and a 2nd on the selector.
Thanks for any advice.
