Automatic transmission technology is about 60 years old. People will gladly jump on a 60 year old tractor that was new technology at the time it was built, but they won't trust a BRAND NEW transmission with 60 years of refinement behind it.

All my experiences I will not own a truck with a auto for the simple reason of towing.Now this is just my opinion but when my buddies are crying about how much it costs to have their auto fixed and I"m still going thats enough proof for me [Reply]  [No Email]
