For most people, there is absolutely no reason for the 10 speed transmission to use all 10 gears when just driving around town or using gentle throttle. The skipping of 2nd and 4th makes for a smoother and more refined driving experience. As others have said, under heavier throttle, it does NOT skip gears even in normal drive. For those who want a more aggressive feel and to not skip gears even at lighter throttle input, simply drive in sport mode. That mode does, however, lock out 10th gear but you can engage it via the paddle. What I have always liked about the 10A is that it is like having multiple transmissions all in one. You can alter its behavior via the drive modes as well as use of the sport mode.
Having said this, I applaud Livernois for their work on this. If someone wants it to use all the gears, for whatever reason, but not have the more aggressive shift points and downshifts of using the sport mode, this Livernois trans tune should fit the bill. I do not like the title of this thread, though.....implying that skipping gears is not "right."
