Truck manufacturers try their best to get
folk to purchase automatic transmissions, especially for pulling
trailers.
The reason is that any idiot can stick his/her
foot in it and pull a goose neck horse trailer with an automatic, but if you do
not drive a manual properly, especially with a diesel, you will rip out the
clutch and/or trannsmission in 5 K miles. Typically, the idiot then wants
the auto maker to fix, and also tells all of his/her friends at the local bar
what bad trucks are made by the company.
