okay transmission people, tell me why my buddie's stock 03 Escape tranny feels like its slipping less? I have driven it around town and it feels like it pulls harder, shifts firmer, and overall better connected to the road. So tell me, exactly what are the differences between his and my transmissions?
I have ruled out the obvious fact its 4wd, the shifting is so much firmer and seems quicker. Could it be that just the extra torque and power create this illusion? Are there any differences between the torque converters? What changed to make the escape feel so much more connected to the road (even with the 4WD burnouts we were doing in the snow last winter)
