Holy crap. I've been off the forums for awhile, and just checked back to see if anyone else had figured out the trans shift problems for the 05, and I see this is still going on.
/facepalm
I'm at 102k miles and have had these same shifting problems for over 30k miles. I'm determined to drive the thing till it blows up at this point unless there's a reasonable fix (which it seems there isn't, shesh)
Anyone seen RyanPR on any other forums? Apparently he had the same exact issues and his car was built on the same day as mine with the same setup. Just curious.

ok my update is this:
for anyone buying a ford in Houston TX do not go to Planet Ford off I45. they are a complete joke. the service dept was any thing but professional and accomidateing.
my complaint of a rough shifting were "fixed" but when i went to test drive it after the repairs were made i walked back in and questioned weather they knew what they were doing threw the keys at the guy and said dont call me untill its fixed. i was royally pissed off and. when i asked him if he or any one of the service people have ever drove a brand new 5.0 of the lot they replied NO. my response was so how do you even understand what my complaint/issue is? with nothing to compare what its doing now?
this reminds me of women: after being with more than one(alot more) i have had good and i have had bad. the only reason i know one was better than the other was because i had the feeling and expirence of being with both.
conclusion : i am going to call Ford Customer Care and schedule and field engineer to come out and drive my car with me and the dumb bald guy from Planet Ford. and for all future issues i will takeing it to a different dealer I WILL NEVER TAKE MY CAR TO PLANET FORD OFF I45 IN SPRING TX EVER AGAIN!
this is sad i buy my first "realistic" dream car and have these issues
