{"replyTo":"","text":"Why do those Freightliners make so many grinding noises?\nI like the manual and automatic equally as well. It’s nice that I don’t have to cancel cruise control to switch gears, but I hate how slow the transmission is to respond all the time. I like that not having the shifter gives me more space in the cab, but I miss how I can manipulate the clutch in a manual if I need to. ","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"I got to give my vote to Automatic. Easy on the knees in traffic. Better for eating or drinking while driving. I haul furniture so my loads are never very heavy, my truck is governed at 72mph and I can always hit that uphill. Easy for google maps in the city when you need a quick update on which road to turn on. The only drawback I’ve ever experienced is backing up on a Incline grade... pain in the **** sometimes.
