We should be happy they even gave us a manual. Ford doesn't follow what their competition does, which can be a good thing or bad depending on your point of view. the 2.7L will sell just fine with the auto, and same for the 2.3L with the auto. The manual is just a hard sell because most people will say they want one but when push comes to shove, they're rolling off the lot with an auto gear box. Ford will only keep a feature like a manual around or spend more R&D to develop a new one, if people buy it or to keep up with the demand.They want as many of these things on the street as possible and at the lake on the weekends. They don't care if an enthusiast has his every dream combo....they want things that will fly off the lots as soon as they get unloaded off the truck. Most of these people aren't going to say, "hold up, I can't get a stick with the 2.7L Badlands Lux package?" They don't care, they're living the Bronco life now.
