Thanks for the advice - I am narrowing down the field. Matt - Why don't you like the auto in the International. Is it the 6 speed Allison Auto? Everybody and there mother keeps telling me the the bugs have been worked out of the new Allison Autos. I will only put about 10-15 thousand miles a year on the dump. I feel I can keep it a reliable rig for at least 10 years or until I can't afford to repair it... I get conflicting advice on the the issue of auto vs manual. Both salesman at Peterbuilt and Freightliner said there is no need for a manual in a medium duty truck - mostly due to the fact of too many different drivers in the truck ruining the clutch.
Bill - your 6500 is equipped with what - the 6.6 or 7.8 Dmax? Would you buy it again? Exactly why the manual over the auto???
What about 4 x 4??? Thanks...
