Here's a question I've seen posted elsewhere but not answered yet. The concensus seems to be that the adaptive control system in the 2001 Geartronic transmission requires about 20 miles to familiarize itself with the driving characteristics of a driver. What happens after I've been blasting around town in a effort to get the car to know it's me and not my wife, and then I end up getting on the freeway for half an hour. Does it switch back to the economy shifting pattern since its been cruising and I have to train it all over again, or is it somehow smart enough to ignore freeway driving since there is little, if any, shifting?

It would be cool if the transmission would adapt to various drivers' styles, and then memorize them. Just unlock the door with the key fob remote control and the seat, mirrors, AND transmission would all adjust for that driver automatically!
