    It took me about 2 years to pull the trigger and get the wife's approval. Finally when My old Dodge RAM's Automatic Transmission went out (a 1994 Model) I was able to convince her. I got my moneys worth out of the old truck so now it was time. I love it so much and with the manual it makes driving fun again. I've been outfitting it with a bunch of stuff to dress it up. It was very hard to find though in the manual with the options I wanted. I got the Blue Double Cab Sport 4X4. Was on the fence with going automatic since the wife cant drive Manual But My 16 year old son has become very profeceint with the clutch and My 18 year old daughter is learning and can make to 3rd gear around close by. Just practice for her. I love this truck!
