If they would offer a manual 6 speed transmission that might be a very good combo for my 9000 LB 5th wheel. I am not unhappy with my 10 speed auto. Better numbers than the 6.0 and burns pump gas.

Interestingly the power and torque spec line up EXACTLY with the last of the manual diesel Cummins that were detuned to about 660 lb-ft. One can dream, but the feds and CARB testing procedures, and the inability of buyers to operate manuals, will probably prevent it from being a reality.

Yep, agreed, this makes a lot of sense as a replacement for the 6.4 Hemi. The 6.4 Hemi does not make economic sense to keep occupying floor space at their Saltillo Engine Plant now that the 5.7 is out and the Hurriane being in.

Look at how many SD owners don't even want to hold the steering wheel or operate the brake pedal, and would rather entrust driving to a computer, they don't even see the point of a manual with Corvettes. Manuals are not coming back, sad to say.
