    Manual trans is a deal breaker for me....anyone that hasn't had a 3/4 or 1 ton truck wouldn't understand. It's not like shifting a mustang...it's WORK.

    I love my Dodge Ram 5.9 Cummins. And I love my built 48re Auto trans.

    That's a nice truck but I'd have to take some of that stuff off. Otherwise it's ODC.

    I get a kick out of people who think 200k is alot on a truck :lol2:

    I agree 200 k is nothing especially in a diesel. I love driving a manual truck and drove a f350 manual for work for years. Just me I guess that likes a truck with a manual transmission.

    My 01.5 Cummins was a six speed as well. After throwing the solid hub, triple disc, fully metallic pulling clutch in it, the petal was butter, I am thinking I should do the same here. And the wife won't be able to drive it...That would be a GOOD thing! LOL

    The manual 6 speed is a good trans, I pushed 800hp through my 01 in stock form with a good clutch.

    I agree. After having to drive a SD with a manual for about a week and a half while my old company truck that was an automatic was in the shop, there's no way in hell I'd but a manual fullsize truck for myself.

    Looks like a clean truck otherwise, manual is a complete deal breaker for me personally. Too much traffic up here for me to own a manual unless we're talking about a sports car or something.
