:hi: depends on what you want to do with the truck. if you want to tow id say the manual or if you want to go racing id sat auto. the manual is a much stronger trans.

I was a stick-shift driver, BUT after buying an auto, there was no turning back to stick !! With the auto you can drive with a hurt foot, leg, hand, arm, don't have to tired your leg in bumper-to-bumper traffic, can use the other hand to play with radio, talk on the phone, grope the girl-friend, or SHOOT at the carjackers !!! the auto gives you alot of options !!!:yeah::ok1:

good point. but not much traffic around here but lots of Amish and tractors.

for the chip on your dad's truck...you cant beat a smarty or the Smarty Jr. Now like most chips this will only help mileage if ya keep your foot out of it and the smarty can roast a transmission faster than most:5:

I have owned both auto and stick. Sometimes i miss my 5 Speed but when you hit that lock up switch on a slush box hold on.
