PackRat... that was a layup. Still younger than you... well at least 95% of you.

The pic is about 8 years old. Fast forward ...not much difference; more grey and more lines... etc.

My latest selfie from two weeks ago!

Is that... no wait, don’t tell me.., I know I’ve seen one before...

A GEAR SHIFT?

Yes, a shifter, but only one.

Incidentally, my future next company actually has the option of auto or manual for the company trucks. I've been in a debate with myself for the past month over which one do I want. The question still remains...

It wouldn't be a debate in my brainpan... I do too much winter driving in snow country and much prefer a manual during those times.

I’m old enough to understand this reply.

That’s actually a tough decision; manual or autoshift. The integration of adaptive cruise control with autoshift probably tips the scale for me.

Looking forward to hearing more about this.

I’ve driven two trucks with a duplex, a B-61 and an IH 220, both dump trucks. Way easier when empty. Loaded... a whole “nother kettle of fish”.

KW offered twin sticks as an option on the W900 up until they stopped producing them. Imagine running that under a load through the Rockies...

G-town BTW the AutoCar I texted you about and saw was a DC9964. I was driving, I couldn't get a photo. Though, here's a pic of another Autocar with similar grill.
