Check this 4th gear pull, 1000rpm-2500rpm in no time flat! This was done in "manual" mode with paddle shifters.
I am guessing the automatic disengages the engine even with a specific gear selected.

You can actually smell the burning non-existent clutch right through that gif.

Yeah there's the torque converter, but there are also clutch packs inside the transmissions as well, in addition to the converter.

I wonder the same thing all the time, when my truck does 1000 to 2500 like that.

Could be simply a 2500 stall speed torque converter. When the clutch disengages (when you step on the gas) it goes to the fluid stall speed before it will start accelerating. 2500 is a high stall speed for a typical V8 truck though, what kind of truck? Anything changed in the transmission?

It's a Ford Ranger, with a 3.0 V6. It also has 4.10's in the rear so that affects it too.
