We wanted a washer/dryer, but liked our rig too much to let it be a deal breaker. Otherwise, right now all we want are the lights and electronics updated and slide outs in the storage. A cable master and new cab seats are in the distant future.

With regard to auto shift, at least the ZF we have, it does keep the RPMs low. The truck usually only uses 5 or 6 gears, even when towing, (unless we are in the mountains) and it takes its sweet time rolling through them. There is no rushing it or running up the RPMs.

There are folks on this website who have forgotten more about TCs than I know. Hopefully you may hear from some of them soon.
