The 2.7s are way more solid than the 3.5s for the most part. They still suffer some cam phaser issues but it’s nowhere near as prevalent as it is in the 3.5s. We just did cam phasers on two Expeditions with 3.5s. In our parts system we actually have a kit pre assembled for the whole job with or without timing replacement it’s such a common issue on them. The 10R80 is hit or miss is what I’ve seen so far. Sometimes you get amazing life out of them; we had a Mustang come in with 150,000 miles on it already and everything on the outside of the trans looked stock (it had grenaded its differential instead). But we have done a few in the trucks and the Expeditions. It’s usually the valve body drum that seems to give problems out of them. You would notice it if it had that problem. They shift really weird when that happens; it’s not a slip it’s more like a bad shudder between gear changes.
Still, I think it’s better than the GM trucks grenading their camshafts in 30,000 miles or less. Or the Hemis that dropped lifters at the slightest provocation.

Prices are going to come down…considerably. Prices went COVID and are slowly coming back down to the competitive market but we have a long way to go. They are punishing themselves but don’t know it yet.
“Prices went covid” which happened under Trump. Its refreshing that a Trump supporter admits he was responsible for high prices.
What will he do differently to bring prices down this time.
Yeah, I don’t see that happening. For one thing none of them have to room to do that. They have no idea how much food that is, and the little snowflakes sure as hell aren’t living on SPAM. Second, they don’t have that kind of money. Third, they can’t go 15 seconds without needing a Starbucks fix or calling door dash.
