If you shift between 15-20mph in 1st gear you are forced to 4th. It sucks and it's annoying but pretty easy to avoid.....shift at 21/22mph. Driving up the Rockies from Denver to Idaho Springs on I-70 I got about 23 mpg. Going back down the hill I got 38mpg in 6th at 65mph.
On my LS1 I go 1,3,5. Works well
