My reason for ordering the standard 6 speed was twofold--1. I can repair a standard transmission--can't repair an automatic. 2. ZF standard was over $1000 cheaper on the order sheet than the automatic. (At the time, it never occured to me that Ford's design folks missed the ball on the clutch's capacity to handle the torque of the engine it was connected to.)

I've spoken to several PS owners while fueling at truck stops and most that are pulling heavy goosenecks are saying that the autos require overhauls in less than 200K miles. Thats not to say that my next truck won't have an auto. Now if Allison would build a 6 speed auto....
