    While I understand this, the truck is a weekend driver and the 6 speed in the right setting works well like in the G8. These are guys running 11s with cam and mild head work with 2.92 gears and the G8 weighs 4k lbs.

    My point is that the 6l80e isn't working in cars half as heavy as the trucks...

    As far as who's buying one... not me. A powerglide fits right in place of a t56...
