So how can they tell from those pictures that the truck is a manual?

Exactly what I'd like to know. I think they forgot to share some pics.

Funky exhaust pipe, possibly to attach something for testing maybe?

Pretty sure they were just joking in this article.

"Wait, what year is it? That doesn’t sound right. Let’s try this again. The new Super Duty will have a transmission!

In all seriousness, these are the first spy shots we’ve seen of the new Super Duty since it caught on fire (below) during testing"

I think that is exactly what all of us are thinking.
I made my decision, I was looking at getting a Ram 2500HD. With all of the song and dance I was getting from the local Ram Dealers, I am going to stay with my favorite vehicle. I am going to order a new 2015 F-250 Super Duty Crew Cab, 4x4. Have not yet decided between the 6.2L Gas or the 6.7 Power Stroke.

"We can say with absolute uncertainty"... It was a joke or click bait.

It was click bait as I'm guessing that these guys get some scooby snacks if we click on their articles.

Doesn't the title answer the question?
Person one: "Will it have a manual?"
Person two: "no way!"
