Some refer to a switch pitch transmission as a 6 speed.
I am not saying they are wrong... but it isn't.

My 2001 ford explorer has a 5R55E 5 speed which is really a C6 3 speed with overdrive engaged between 1st and 2nd to add ratios.
it goes:
1
1OD
2
3
3OD
or something like that.
If you change the pitch of the Torque converter, like a SP tranny does, thgen yes, by todays reckoning, it's a 6 speed.

I got one of the 5re55s. If you count the 'shofts' you get five speeds. Telling folks it's an overdrive is lost breath. They will believe what they will believe.

I'm not absolutely sure, but I have had several people try to convince
me that they have a 6 speed and tell me I did not know anything about
a switch pitch.
