I win, I got here first... #### 34 hours restart
I have a straight 10 speed. 2009 FL Century Class.
We had a 2009 International dropped off at our yard in Columbus, also a 10 speed.
I believe they all are 10's. Maybe a few automatics in the fleet I heard... but not positive.
Oh, and FFE was far from my first choice when I was trying to get back to work. But for me it's worked out pretty good so far, for what it is. But I do miss delivering gas and being home every night.TNspeedy Thanks this. -

Did you get laid off? -

Just curious as to why the amount of gears makes any difference at all. Why would you care? The reason to drive a truck or to perform any job is to make money. Too make money, have good benefits to provide for your family and make a good living. That is what we are all here for is it not? Does having a 10 speed make you more money? I personally wouldn't care what type of trans they give me as long as I am making money and providing. What am I missing?

Auto's are for sissys..
try a 2 sticker. Had one trk that was ma 5 / 4 then a 10 / 4 setup
Try doing that in city traffic..
You learn how to cheat the gears -
yea i would have to have a 52 acre wide open field so i could lean how to drive them i agree about the sissy sticks but i just need some exp. to go with my previous.

not necessary, Maverick should have all autos now, I know the 06 and newer were auto when i worked there.
