Default Re: Auto or 5 Speed

5-speed was my choice but I prefer manual trans.

I had to order the 5-speed with Adventure and Lux Package

The debate over manual VS auto will go on for ever.
I still think you get better perfomance out of a stick if you know how to drive it. I like decideing when to shift up or down.

Off road with the 4:1 low range starting and stopping on hils etc. is a non-issue.

The gearing is low enough that stop and go traffic isn't too bad.

I hope a 5-speed will be offered with the V8
