Perhaps. I'm guessing (hoping?) it's going to have an extra low gear, under
1st, a'la the Ford Superduty 6-speed manual. I hope it doens't have an extra
OD gear like the 5-speed auto in the GC...

I'm curious to learn more about this. There is no need for another OD, but
like you say, the Low gear could be very interesting.
