    2026 Manual Transmission Car or Truck? List is a short one!



    Dang! Not making many new cars with manual transmissions!

    Of the short list, pick one!

        Love my 88 k1500, Still not old enough for my liking. If you want something that will run no matter what, less electronic crap is more gooder.

      Yep, I special ordered my 2012 F-350 SRW new. Was replacing a 2003 F-350 SRW with the 6.0 Powerstroke and a 6 speed manual. I planned on getting the 6.7 Powerstroke and manual trans on the 2012. Was told no manual trans option. Pretty disappointed. Yet I could get it with a floor shift transfer case, and manual locking front wheel hubs from the factory, just no manual trans.

      At the time Dodge did offer a manual trans on their 3500, but wasn't a real big fan of Dodge, and I felt the Ford was a better built truck. So auto trans it was.

      For the record, I also had a '76 F-250 with a 360 / 4 speed, a '81 F-350 dually with a 400M and 4 speed, and a '96 F-250 with 351W and 5 speed.

        Now that I'm not driving so far to work in traffic I'd love to have a manual transmission again. Then again, I'd like to be able to drive again too. 🤣🤣🤣

          Well, since I already have one (Tacoma, Automatic tho) and its great, I'd go with a Manual Transmission 2026 Toyota Tacoma!

            And #3, the manual transmission 2026 Ford Mustang. I'd put a Shelby stripe on it for sure!

                I like the Cadillac Blackwing, but the Civic Type R is an awesome car too. Can I pick 2?

                  Ok, that makes sense. Have you deleted the 6.7 yet? Or do you just replace the EGR crap every 70K miles?

                    One of the best anti-theft devices you can have. Not many people these days know how to drive a manual transmission.

                          Have NOT deleted it yet, kinda scared to hire someone locally and phuck up the most expensive truck I've ever owned!

                          Right at 100k now and gets great mileage, pulls like a retarded team of steroided out mules, and rides as good as a vehicle I'll ever own. My only complaint is I got more shit in the bed of the truck, camper shell is great but still a pain in the ass to access and gets dusty as all hell.

                          I wish Ford made the Heavy Duty Expedition (suburban like vehicle) with the 6.7 PowerStroke. Oh well...
