I might add; I like manual especially if there's a slot on the dash verse under it mounted. But the auto choke is not necessary needing a heater tube; if your only running an newer electric choke.
With all that said; it really depends on your enviroment location & whether the truck is store outside verse inside, mainly in harsh weather conditions, I like manual choke better.
Hope I 'm making sense!
