Do people like the old truck manual transmissions?

I may have come across as negative about stick transmissions. I can drive a stick and have owned vehicles in the past with stick transmissions. Now that I don't commute so far, I'm looking for another truck to drive around in town, and if it happens to be a stick trans, that would be fine. My wife doesn't want a stick vehicle, so maybe that'll keep her out of it!
