[QUOTE="hondo, post: 877007, member: 8661"] Plan on having to take a road test with a manual transmission. Besides that, are you comfortable driving a large vehicle? Things like being able to keep the [-]truck[/-]package car centered in the traffic lane, knowing where the rear wheels are (so you don't run over curbs/scrape signs on turns), awareness of the 'tail swing' when turning, and backing into a spot are some of what is looked at on a road test. When you're coming in and out of the building for your part time shift, glance in the cabs of the [-]trucks[/-]package cars and form your own estimate of how many are automatic vs. manual. Oh by the way, a lot of the manual trans [-]trucks[/-]package cars, also do not have power steering. [/QUOTE]
