I also really dislike how it will hold the transmission in 2nd gear, at about 4500 RPM for a LONG time. Gee, wonder why I get 6mpg!!!
I have the same issue. At a ramp at work, when I begin the ascent, the transmission shifts into a lower gear and holds it--even after I've leveld off at the next level. The engine just revs to some ridiculous level.
