Re: Overdrive Off vs. Tow/Haul

Why can't Ford do what GM did? The Allison has a Tow/Haul feature, but when you press and hold the button the light flashes indicating that OD is locked out. I would love to have that feature when towing in rolling hills on a two lane highway.

US 95 in SE Oregon is a great example of where this would come in handy. Speed limit is 55, you can run 60 without a ticket. My truck did a lot of shifting until I backed down to 55 then it would stay in direct at about 2000 RPMs.

So how about it Ford??
