Now settle down just looking I wish it was a birthday present but just looking. I need to go to an auto sooner then later my knees are getting so bad it hurts to shift. When it comes to autos I need to re think the brand, been a Cummins man since 94 so it is going to be hard to switch. Its Susanns idea not mine lol.

George and Julie looking forward to see you Friday and Bill and Liz also.

Once you pull with these new automatics with tow\haul mode you won't be going back to a stick. You'll be hooked.

Not yet, on my next week off I plan to pull it some where. I'm looking at another "Aux" tank, so maybe north side of Dallas.
The owners book says to get 500 miles before towing, so I will have about twice that by next week. Hope I can keep my foot off the clutch :lol:

I haven't been able to pull with the new truck yet..:(
I hooked up to get everything level, and had a hard time not pulling out for a little while anyway. Hopefully I can get up to New Caney soon to see Bruce's new monster. :D I really want to see how the new 6.7 compares to the 5.9.
I'm getting used to the training wheels, and no clutch, but I find myself reaching for that stick too.
