I am a huge fan of the super 10. The ONLY reason there isn't one in my pickup is because it weighs 800lbs. I'm not kidding, it was an Eaton rep that pointed out the weight issue when I mentioned it at the show in Louisville a few years ago. I absolutely will not touch an Autoshift. There are two main reasons for this. One, I concentrate on my driving better with a manual. The second reason is failure. I have had to move several trucks with autoshift transmissions out of traffic and onto the shoulder of the road at work. I don't have to worry about servos, sensors and actuators failing with the Super 10.
