that's weird.

for the autos that shift, full manual valve body? if not, you're not accomplishing much. in fact, you might be doing harm.

i downshift. i almost always have the gear engaged to the speed i am doing. it makes for more spirited driving, as you don't have to wait to downshift - you're already there, just get on it. of course i learned on an f-150 with little to no clutch.
