I’m not pissed.

Also, I don’t measure my cuck status as an inverse to my engine displacement and tire diameter.
I can't wait to get my 2.3L cuck machine. Cucking around on my small tires. Take my wife but don't take my 32s.

Manual demand does not exists ... That’s why they don’t make many of them because people don’t want to buy them. Different for let’s say the 911 (my next car). But there is just not a demand for manual because it’s not nearly as fun as people make it out to be... it’s like remembering your great uncle as a silly and funny guy when in reality he was a drunk that most of the family hoped did not come around because he talked about the good ole manual car days :)

PS. Am not doing your dirty work with my dealer. If you want to change do it from the inside… Get a job at ford as an engineer work your way up the corp ladder until you are CEO then you can mandate all manual all the time ;-)

Most people don't care about the manual. Ford knew that going into this. It's just a fact that most Americans don't want one, myself included.

Take rate for the MT/2.3 will be higher than expected and much higher than any comparable vehicle made today. We are not rejecting the MT and settling for the auto. You may be settling for the auto though.

They have product owners and people that work at Ford, whose job is to find out what potential buyers want. Bitching to your sales guy probably does close to nothing.
