I got my GMC MH last May and have use it for only one long trip. Being that I am a flat-lander I like to force down-shift when going up or down a steep grade, also feel that the transmission and brakes run cooler when doing so. I have problems shifting back to "D" and often miss it and go to "N". I noticed that when the accelerator is floored the linkage operates a switch, which I think down-shifts the trans . I am going to install a 2 position push button switch on the shifter leaver and wire it accross the switch that the accelerator operates. Then when I push it the transmision down-shifts, push it again transmition go back to "D". I would like to know if anyone has tried this?

78 Eleganza II, more demanding of attention & the pocket book than the wife but less bitchy (my better 1/2 suggestion).
