Me too, I hate the 10r60
Yea, was a bummer to me that the trans would be on borrowed time on the ST with a tune. I trust ZFG knew what he was doing but just didn't like the idea of dailying a SUV with a tune that would be way over the trans torque limit. Especially since it's hard not to launch the ST everytime from a stop.
The R60 was god awful in the 2.3L Explorer I had as a loaner.
Maybe the 3.0 power helped the trans stay in higher gears longer.
Actually the software management needs addressing more than anything. The 10R80 can be wonky. I am sure the 10R60 is just as bad. Or maybe not?
I had an expedition with the R80 that seemed fine to me. My brother has a ranger with it too with no issues yet.
Just odd to me Ford is keeping the R60 in their flagship Bronco on 37s, that may see high abuse offroad from 3% of the people who buy it lol
