    TransAm advertising says, "best lease in Industry".

    Yeah a lot are, a few arent, another twist on autos is I spoke with a Walmart driver while at dealer shop and I asked him on the autos, he said they are considering going back to 10 speed manuals, said the reason is they have had a lotta problems with them...something to do with computer not synching or communicating to the auto transmission. After I pressed him about it, he said no I'm serious, said he's had problems with his also...I have at this time a 13 speed manual, always been my transmission of choice for me anyways. Had an auto once, told them it's either me or this truck, so they took it back after less then 6 months, gave me 13 speed manual back.
     
    RedRover Thanks this.

    New autos are pretty good, and on average get better fuel economy that a standard 10speed.

    All trucks are going to be autos. No more clutches. No more floating the gears. We all are going to do what Washington tells us to. Now be a good robot and sit behind the wheel while we do the driving.

    But only if you lease is what I heard , and do you get any of that money back. Is that a deposit or a fee ?
