Re: I Want a Challenger.........But..................
Looks like Ford is taking Dodge's ideas. 
The Tremec 6-speed, with its beefed-up gears, triple synchros in 1st and 2nd, and high multiplication in 1st thanks to a 2.97:1 instead of a 2.66:1 ratio, provides quick, snappy shifts. This is the same gearbox found in the Dodge Viper, but thanks to some changes in the linkage, it feels less balky and much more precise in action. The 3-4 upshift still takes slightly more effort to snick positively into place, but overall, the gearbox's action is intuitive.
