You are correct. With so many outfits going autoshift, a disturbing trend is they are removing the manual option. A buddy of mine drives a shaker...
Fingers crossed for your new truck. I hope it runs with zero issues!
btw, ladies and gents, I PMd mr.jackhole and offered him to take this debate via pm. Of course, like any attention-loving troll, he ignored it.
What I said in my prior posts does put what I said in #125 into context. And you continue to ignore the fact that I SPECIFICALLY STATED "for them...
Why do you think I told you to read my post #115? In that post I specifically point out drivers who are in trucking for the passion and those who...
