Maybe a stupid question but I've never owned an automatic, lol. I've always had sticks. Just curious because the truck I want at the dealership was doing this.

I have had many vehicles .. sticks and autos. Never had an automatic like this.
IF .. this
2nd .. 6 spd. tranny works out OK for me .. I think that I can really learn to like it .. it is just DIFFERENT.
Hey .. I am 937 miles ... and .. "winging it on tranny no. 2" .. wish me luck .. lol ..

PS The last time I had a difficult time learning .. "how to do an automatic" .. was with the old push button MoPar 3 spd attached to a 426 cu in/ 425 hp. hemi. The automatics were actually faster than the sticks in those days (mid to mostly late 1960s).
I loved that car too .. it would burn those skinny tires right off the rims .. but the d*mn doors and body integrity was that of a soup can ...
PPS .. To answer your question ...yes .. the 6 spd. autos do shift in a weird way ... and mine is sometimes .. more weird than weird ..
.. my experiences only here.
