2011 auto transmission question
on the 4.2 inch lcd screen i have it set up so you can see what gear youre in. when i start to brake i see it go down from 6-5-4-3-1 when slowing down to a complete stop from 3rd gear it skips over 2 and goes straight into 1st gear at a complete stop....is this normal? or should it go into 2nd and then into 1st rather skipping 2nd gear? thanks a lot
My truck does the exact same thing. Seems to be normal. I try to come to a complete stop and let it shift to first before I step on the gas. Otherwise when I used to roll through a stop sign it seemed to do the 3rd to 1st shift the same time I would hit the gas. Resulting in a not so smooth shift.

I'm pretty sure it does go into second when in tow/haul though.
I'm used to that with my old car i traded in for the f150 the drivetrain had a few rough bumps i thought i got hit a few times
