Is that the same tranny used in the Taurus? I had a 97 or 98 Taurus loaner with the 3L Vulcan engine, and it shifted really quirky sometimes. It also took a couple of seconds to engage after putting it in drive, and my foot was already on the gas and me wondering why I'm not moving and then "screech..." as it engages.
I once got it to peel out while driving in rush-hour traffic. I wanted to change lanes and I needed to speed up quickly, so I floored it and it downshifted really roughly and peeled out.
I don't think it was just that one, because I've heard other people say that Tauruses (Taurii?) they've driven have shifted strangely..

Perhaps Ford should consider using that tranny. The WS only has a 4 speed automatic, and still shifts kind of quirky sometimes.
