thats got to be a gutless rig. why dont you get a diesel? they gett better mileage than a f150, more torque, they can haul more/tow more, and last 2 to 3 times longer

The really only way to find one is either be super lucky or order it from the factory. Autos are just so much easier, don't have to worry about it just let it do its thing. People don't want to have to be shifting while driving, they just want to press the gas and go

i wouldnt go that far saying EVERYONE wants to have an automatic. i know alot of people that would rather have a manual just to shift, and alot of people on here. my moms taurus has an auto (i dont think they ever came with a manual) and it started leaking tranny fluid. my truck is alot older than her car and it doesnt leak a drop

Ok 90% of the drivers on the road don't care about shifting.
