[QUOTE="Carlos, post: 561, member: 7"] I like my manual in my Ford 3/4 ton 4X4. Cathy won't drive it. I can rest my hand on the shifter. I can use the engine to slow me down, saving break pad/shoe wear. I can stop on ice covered roads when an automatic has trouble doing the same, again related to using the engine to transfer controlled breaking to all 4 wheels without locking them up. I can stick it in granny low and turn the truck loose and walk along side it as it's driving itself. :D For the same engine, I get better mileage than both automatics and 1/2 ton's for the same year model. I am smarter than the average bear. :pipe: [/QUOTE]
