    I'm not going to get an 80e because it's just a daily driver and I really don't plan on beatin the piss out of this thing. If the 65 is significantly better than the 60 I'll keep it, but if it's just about the same I'll go with the 60. How about if I pose this question.. On a scale of 1 to 10, if a 60 were a 1 and the 80 being a 10, where would a 65 fall?

    And for your responses!!

    Its not worth it in my opinion. You have a $100 better transmission if you keep the 5 gear planetaries. unless you're getting ready to be kicked out of your house or the kids haven't eaten in days, stick with the 65e.

    That confident huh? Alright.. I guess it'll probably be worth it in the long run. Is there any difference in gearing at all?

    None, just better internals.
