umm well i love my truck and my automatic is working fine...im planning on getting a full DTT or Goerends depending on who i can find closer to my area....but i find myself pretending like im shifting and looking for a stick constantly....i dont think the built automatic will satistfy me....ive been thinking about looking in my local autotrader and trading for a 5speed truck with someone is this a good idea? or is that a lost cause? is anyone ever lookign for an auto anymore?

Andrew...

im willing to go from extended cab to a regular cab just to get my 5 speed

I used to dream of a 5 or 6 shooter too.
Then every time I get stuck in a DC traffic jam, or decide to toast that little "Thumper Skate" reving his sewing machine motor next to me at a light,
........I find my Goerend Auto suits me just fine.
