need to update I now pull with a 2006 dodge cummins megacab 6 speed straight shift. Between the increased horsepower of the 2006 and the extra gear it is a much nicer ride. Most of the tow vehicle break downs I have seen have been related to transmissions. When pulling up or down long hard grades transmission over heating is a concern. Most manufactures will not stand behind their warrenty if you have an exhaust brake on your diesel with an automatic transmission. When going up or down I can choose the gear that suits the situation the best and monitor the engine by looking at the exhaust tempertures. It works for me.
