So i bought this truck with actually 96k on it. I drove it and when i hit 40-45 mph, my truck would downshift and the rpms would hit 3k then upshift and drive normal. The overdrive would be on when this happens, but when its off it doesnt do this problem.
Update from Sep 9, 2016: this happens no matter how long the truck runs or anything, if it hits that mph it will do it.
