So with regards to skip shift....so if you don't shift to 2nd between 15-19mph, no skip shift? That's pretty cool. Makes sense I guess I never was in that range b/c it never engaged. I tried to shift to 2nd at a crawl in the parking lot and it wouldn't engage. Makes sense now.

If you forget and try a shift between 15-19 rpm and you feel the shifter refusing to go to second - just go to third instead of fourth. It will take third and that's better than lugging the engine in 4th at such a low speed. On mine I see the dash message flash up just as I cross 15 mph and then it goes out as I roll past 20 mph. My normal driving pattern is to shift out of first after 20 mph and thus avoid the problem all together.
If you ever do some engine mods that require a tune the 1-4 skip shift feature can be turned off while you (or your tuner) are modifying the tune. That's what I did for my 5th gen Camaro. But I am not tuning this one so I just drive around it. You can also buy and install a skip shift eliminator plug in but the access for it on the tranny is really tight and hard to access. I'm not messing with that either.
