So, coming home from Minneapolis yesterday, my rig, TWICE, would not go into 4th gear:confused: :confused:
So for an hour at a time, I had to limp along at 60mph with my RPM's around 2800 :confused:
Any ideas? I'm ASSUMING this would be a warranty issue??

Did you try coming off the gas and seeing if the truck would roll into 4th?
Heading to UT through KS last time with Marcmedic, I was in 2nd at 55-60 mph!:eek:

Well, that's the thing Ken, coming OUT of Minneapolis, was the 1st time this happened, and that's what I assumed, as it's QUITE HILLY, so I didn't give it a 2nd thought. Then we stopped at an outlet mall about an hour away from our hotel, and after that everything was fine again, so I figured it was the hills. I was doing 90MPH from there to Fargo, N.D. and everything was perfect. I stopped in Fargo for gas etc. then off to Grand Forks and everything was still normal, but between Grand Forks and the Canadian border (FLAT, Prarie Land), it did it AGAIN:confused:
What a pisser, TOTALLY screwed my ETA :D
Lastly, AFTER Customs, back to Winnipeg, everything was fine again:confused:
Oh yeah, NO headwind, and I TRIED to get it in 4th by giving it LOTS OF GAS, then taking my foot off the pedal:confused:
