Haha yes exactly I noticed this too. Maybe it's the shifters way of saying "Ummm dude you don't want to go here, try the other gate" [sm=nono.gif]

it is actually kind of hard to get it into 1st gear if your doing like over 15 unless you jam it in but 2nd gear is a hell of a gear!

That^=lost street race.
You cant drop it into 3rd after 45? WTF? I love cruising the interstate @ 70, and drop it into 3rd and winding it out to pass someone. . And I have 4.10's

Downshifting into too low of a gear = bouncing off the rev limiter and bending valves, breaking your tranny etc. etc. downshift into 1st 1-15mph 2nd 16-35mph 3rd 36-45mph 4th 46-60mph

why would you ever want to drop into 1st?
tire spin?
i think it's just a bad idea if i am rolling 3+mph from slowing down in neutral i still go into second.......... going into first while moving just feels and sounds bad
