What happens here

Alex arrives with his silver Ford F-Series Super Duty. Both Tim and Alex confirm that their new diesel trucks are equipped with 10-speed automatic transmissions. Alex points out that he is still getting used to the different shifting characteristics of the 10-speed compared to older 6-speed transmissions. He explains that the 10-speed shifts more frequently, reaching higher gears (like fifth) at lower speeds (around 30 mph), whereas his old truck would be in fifth gear closer to 50 mph. He also mentions the adaptive driving feature, where the transmission learns the driver's acceleration and pedal habits, adapting its shifting patterns over time.

Goal: Discuss the features and driving experience of the 10-speed automatic transmission in new diesel trucks.

so it was no it's just awesome man still getting used to it yeah okay so you have the diesel with the 10 speed yep and you Timmy's a diva how is the how is the shifting on he had he made Alex go test run it how was it uh he says it feels great so but me I'm not used to you know first through fifth year there's a lot going on there you know and depending on when you step on it and it feels sometimes like something could be slipping but it's it's just the way they are it's just the way diesels Drive different than a gas engines do and then you're jumping into a diesel with twice as many gears like even for me going from that 67 with a 6 feed this truck I even feel a difference like what is this one this is a 67 with a 10 speed oh it has a 10p speed too yeah this also is a 10 speed what year is this one a 21 a 21 how many miles 45,000 45,000 and yours is a 22 yep has 38,000 on it now and what was the price on yours 61 and yours 63 63 okay um and I've been finding other trucks closer to that one for with 70,000 Mi for 60 Grand you know so we hunted some good deals down on both these trucks got some good deals what do you think of that 10p speed I think it definitely is different because you know before you get to 30 you're in fifth gear where originally I'm in I'm going 50 before I'm in fifth gear so it's shifting five times before I would normally shift maybe three times you know and the third gear so it's definitely getting used to it and these Ford's got the Adaptive drivve in so whoever drove these trucks before did not drive them like me or Tim so it's going to take time for it to relearn so tell tell me about the Adaptive Driving
