Warpath,

Do you know how any of these 3 types of auto transmissions are holding up in so far as durability and longevity?

Do they last as long as a car or family truck auto transmission?

Any idea on what it takes to repair/replace them if they break down?

I can see why the manual transmission is the choice among commercial drivers. Less moving parts and less things to go wrong.
