SafariCat- thanks for "telling it like it is" about the DualRange Hydramatics. You should have also mentioned the efficiency of the hydro's variable displacement front pump. I don't know if any newer automatics use such a pump?
If you ride in my HydroStick equipped GMC you can observe the advantages of such a pump- around town shifts are not harsh, but at full throttle they're brutal.
