Re: Why do Ford Diesel Vans come with automatic transmisssions only and not manual/clutch versions?

[ QUOTE ]
Most people are either too lazy to be bothered, or simply have no clue how to operate a clutch. Every time I drive the Econoline-chassis shuttles at work I wish I had a 6-speed. Slushpumps are for grandmothers & people with one leg. Give me a manual transmission. Every time. No exceptions.

I agree completely.
