I'm assuming you have the Ford V10 and 6 speed tranny. On the end of your shifter stalk is goofy symbols that represents the tow/haul mode selector. Get familiar with it and you'll love it. It does the downshifting for your. I find using Cruise Control with it annoying but it wants to slow you down too much.
