Can the S650 10R80 be tuned to skip more gears?

Would double tapping the paddles work?

I feel like this did when I test drove a couple automatic GTs, but if I recall correctly if you got the timing wrong it would shift twice instead of shifting gears.

Is it possible to tune the 10R80 in a 2024 Mustang GT to use fewer gears during normal driving?


I feel like the transmission shifts way too often because of the 10 gears. I’d like it to skip more gears during light/normal throttle, for example something like 1st → 3rd → 5th → 7th → 9th/10th, instead of going through almost every gear.


Under heavier throttle or WOT, I’d still want it to use all 10 gears normally.

I drive 2024 6MT, but I cannot understand Ford putting a 10-speed auto in these cars! These are not a semi for heaven's sake that need to have more gears to match up torque curves over wide range of road use. Just doesn't fit the character of a performance car IMHO. I know those of you that like autos have no choice, but I believe Ford did a disservice to those owners with this transmission.
