Hi Marty,

While I am not currently in the market for a new truck, I am always thinking of my future needs/desires. What concerns me is I went to 4 Detroit MI area Ford dealers and none had manual transmission SuperDuties on the lot (one dealer had some 35 units). Seems to me if they had some manuals on the lot they would sell (so I hopefully can fine one used someday). I would be interested in your perspective, as a Dealer, on what the future of manual transmissions is and how manual transmissions are viewed from a marketing perspective.
