I'll be interested to follow this thread. I hate the fact that they don't offer them anymore. When all of these automakers started advertising that they were slashing their prices and doing employee pricing a couple of years ago I checked the GM and Ford sites and played with the "Build and Price" pages and every time I wanted a V8 it made me change the tranny option. Lame. I wish they could understand and make what we all really want- and not just for trucks. I just got back from Ireland two days ago...it's upsetting to see what Ford and GM, even some Japanese manufacturers have over there that we'll never see.

Oh well.
