maybe you should pay attention to how you shift.. so you DON'T beat the crap out of the gear box everyday?

you don't necessarily have to drive hard to put a beating on the gear box.

+1 ruben... I'm not certain if it was intentional. However, when you took me on that ride-a-long, Your RPM's spiked between 2nd and 3rd.. I mean it spiked from like 2500-almost 4500 >_<

Not talking **** just what I noticed...

your shift points are weird, and you don't really revmatch while downshifting. if your gearbox didn't have synchros you would grind every time
