Jay, I have a 2008 Dodge 3500 pickup and love it. It is a diesel with a 6-speed automatic transmisssion. I wasn't sure if I would like the automatic after running a 5-speed in the '96 Dodge it replaced. But I like it. The truck has an engine brake and works in tandem with the transmission to downshift when slowing down or going downhill. I have friends that own Ford diesels that have ridden with me and even they are impressed with the setup. The '96 I had had 313,000 trouble free miles on it and I would still be driving it had someone not ran a stop sign and drove out in front of me. For as good luck as I had with the '96 I didn't even consider anything but the Dodge/Cummins. And if this truck is any indication the next one will be the same as well. Very satisfied. Mike
