I'm getting pretty good at picking up speed on the downgrade and letting
it
bleed off on the upgrade. Works pretty well, lets me stay in overdrive,
and
saves gas.


I just miss the manual tranny.


With all due respect, what you are missing is a vehicle designed to tow
something.


You don't want to be in overdrive while towing. *An automatic, designed for
towing applications, will figure it out for you.

I have the same car. I tow in 4th, not in OD, and when necessary, I
downshift to third or lower. Much easier on the transmission.- Hide quoted text -

When necessary the tranny will downshift to third or lower all by
itself. That's why they call it an AUTOMATIC transmission.
