2019 Silverado 1500 gets a diesel

This is all cool and stuff. I just wish the manufacturers would bring back manual transmissions...

.
Sadly, that ship has sailed. Between emissions controls and CAFE requirements, manufacturers are doing everything they can to eliminate the human variable.

Ram is the only full size truck you can get a manual in and it's only in the 2500 and 3500 with a Cummins BUT 2018 is supposed to be the last year of the manual for them too. I was gonna buy a new one with a manual in 2 yrs. Guess that's not gonna happen now I do like the looks of the new Chevy

You can't even get a Ferrari with a manual.

That's because the Italians are well...Italians. You either like the car they make or screw you.

BMW and Porsche and many of the domestic sports cars still have manual options though.

Unfortunately there's a good reason for that- Ram has massively de rated the manual cummins, i'm assuming for longevity?

Looks a lot like a tundra to me from certain angles. Maybe when new vehicles dont cost as much as a rental property that creates income I'll buy another one. Until then Ill keep on driving old uncool stuff thats paid for.
