The Strada 2.5 GLX 4x2 A/T is a good idea... i had been thinking of asking the plant to make a variant like this actually- especially for someone who doesnt need the high powered 3.2 4x4 mechanism. This type of engine and tranny combo is already available in other markets especially Thailand.
As for the FC, lets wait for what Fellow BOSBs Doc ooba99 and eslonblue has to say about this...
I know how you feel about the manual tranny. BUT the flipside to this is that releasing the clutch for the truck to move is almost effortless- making it fun to drive!
