Many of the 60Es that I've seen that "tow and are abused" don't make it past 60k miles before their first rebuild. I guess that explains why GM applies a heavy dose of torque management to the 4L60E, in the form of timing retard at the shifts, so that they can be "reliable" in stock form, and make it to the end of the warranty period?
