In an interesting quote, the Ford rep. indicated that the DCT was used because the A10 (a variation of the A10 in our cars) had trouble with the Torque! This is the opposite of what every other source has said on the ability DCT's to handle heavy torque. I would also point out that our ZL1 A10 seems to do fine with 650trq. And yes, I am aware of torque management software and its role in saving the transmission.
I thought that was what Ford wanted was the A10 for all of their automatic scenarios. I was wrong.
