Why only a 6 speed. The autos run so much better cause they stay in the peak power range easier. This is not going to go well with looking for a dependable 6.0 because most people dislike them and for mostly good reasons.

I don't want my truck to puke the trams on ground. With a manual something is guaranteed to happen. Something is goin to happen and you only got 2 options: move or break. Autos are junk and do not belong in a truck. My brother has had 2 and both of them are runnin mother ****ers. I want a 6.0.

When the clutch goes you won't move or break, so which option is that?

I like the zf6 but the 5r is one of the toughest and cheapest autos ever put in a diesel. Saying that all autos are junk is ignorant.

Lookin for dependable 6.0

When the clutch goes that would fall under broke. I've never lost a clutch in any of my vehicles ever. One flywheel, no clutch. I'm still for the manual. Its my truck and that's what I want. Just cause everyone is to lazy to shift don't mean I have to be. If you don't like my preference then tough ****, it ain't yours so I don't see where it matters.

You may like your fast Cummins,
But your wife likes my slow powerstroke.

The only dependable 6.0 I've heard of was the one Bigfoot bought from the Loch Ness monster......
