    It's all about how you use it man. In everything I do with my rig I gotta have an auto. It's pretty superior in the rocks. Sure manuals can be more fun to drive, that's why my car that I daily drive is a manual, but for all my offroading I enjoy having the auto and it's definitely been around the block offroad ;)

    PS you'll have a lot better time on this website when you stop acting like a testosterone fueled teenage male... You don't gotta have a stick in your truck to make up for the lack of one between your legs ;)

    are you kidding me? Everything about your truck is a reflection of you the driver. I'm not saying an auto tranny can't wheel or get you to the soccer game for that matter. I'm just saying if you choose to drive an auto, I see your next mod...:eek:

    real men speak up- nice. Driving is not a convenient activity- engage yourself at the task at hand!

    and don't think I haven't noticed everyone chiming in and hating has autos- proof! Us manuals are rolling around on the floor and laughing. It's Thursday night, you shouldn't be glued to your reload button. I have an excuse, I'm depressed and injured..:rofl:

    I drove a manual truck for 14 years prior to buying this one , you're retarded in assuming anything about a person due to the transmission in their vehicle , that's 10 year old at recess shit

    'We' assume a whole lot about people by what they drive. we all do it especially us guys. Good job, you got my point (faint as it was). See, you're probably pretty smart. Now go do something cool to your truck!
