I'd like to hear back from Matt, Will or Chris Lambert, but if anyone else
knows, chime in. What's up with the NV3500 problems behind the 4.7? I got
a 5-spd so I didn't have to worry about the multispeed bulls--t. My
manual's been flawless, but only have about 7k on it. Also, wasn't the
Redline MTF supposed to be blended or do you just shoot it straight (no
synthetic chaser)? If the NV3500s end up crapping themselves, I might look
for an extended warrantee but figured that they're plenty robust. Any
insights?

Automatic! I have the 5-spd and would trade it for an auto any day! I have
always been a manual guy, but until they can improve the NV-3500,I wouldn't
buy another one! Matt Barrett and Chris Lambert have already had their
5-spds go out and mine feels like it may be next! I have 8,000 miles on my
truck and the transmission is great when the truck is still "cold",but once
it warms up, it gets very notchy and harder to get in and out of gear.If I
had to choose again, it would be auto! HTH,
