ok, well...My truck was telling me to shift into 6t gear...as if I had
one...I was ready to pull the shift light out just to stop it! now, I tried
the PCM reset and it worked...I don't know why but it did work...so just for
future reference...there is something that the computer can tell

I'll agree that it may not be necessary, but a reset of the PCM so it can
relearn shift points can't hurt.
