[QUOTE="99MustangGTman, post: 16684657, member: 55199"] I'm not sure exactly how long this generation or style ran for, but I do know the 2017 and 2018 Ram 2500 came with a 6 speed manual. I wasn't even aware that there were any full-size pick-up trucks that still came with a manual transmission. Every major automotive manufacturer that builds full-size trucks all only offer their trucks with automatics only. The last full size pick-up that was available with a stick and a turbo diesel that I personally remember was the Ford F250 in the early 2000s, but i'm no truck expert. Anyways, i've always wanted a full size truck with with a stick, but in the past 2 decades, this is an extremely tall task. One of my favorite trucks is the 93 Ford F250 Powerstroke, but finding one is good condition with decent mileage is extremely hard and the price is a lot more than i'm willing to spend on a 27 year old truck. Now that I know a full size pick-up came with a 6 speed manual and a cummins turbo diesel as late as 2018 I am very interested in picking one up for all kinds of use, but the mainly for payload and for towing of my cars and I have a friend who could benefit from using this to tow his Mustang vs. his Tacoma which is what we used last time when I bought my Fox. I was looking up different ones for sale, but I first got interested when my friend sent me a text of one fo sale since he was just as surprised since he didn't know they came in stick as well. He sent a pic of the truck and interior. I don't know which model it was exactly, but it was fairly loaded inside with the 8.4" touchscreen navigation, and similar interior to the newer one I built on the Ram website with a beige interior, and tan leather seats. Comparing the pictures of the one my friend sent me to the newest one on the Ram website, I believe it was a Laramie edition. It looked very similar to this one since it had the exact same wheels, but was two-tone and had a few more bells and whistles.
