All straight trucks are Automatic
both
it is automatic
No, not in the least. And maintenance on those transmissions is much more than it is on the manual transmissions.
They have both but mostly automatics.
Depends on what type. Collectors/compactors almost always are automatic. Roll-off container trucks can be either automatic or manual.
The 7.3 PS had 250hp for the trucks with an automatic transmission from 1999-2003; in 2001 the power was increased to 275hp for the trucks with a manual transmission.
For the S10 and 1500, the manual was the NV3500 and the automatic was the 4L60E. For the 2500 and 3500, the manual was the NV4500 and the auto was the 4L80E. For their medium- and heavy duty trucks, manual transmissions from Eaton Fuller and Rockwell were available, while automatic transmissions from Allison were available.
Whatever the customer orders them to be. Most I've seen use an Allison automatic, but I've seen them with 8LLs and 10 speeds, as well.
Maverick, PAM Transport, US Xpress... several companies are trying them out as part of a pilot program to weigh and measure them against manual trucks.
I'm assuming you mean "vocational" trucks. They can be either manual or automatic... some applications more or less demand an automatic for all the stop-and-go driving they do, such as garbage trucks. Others, the owner will weigh the pros and cons of each, and decide what they think is best.In these applications, they'll typically use the Allison transmissions, which are true automatics, rather than the autoshift transmissions used in OTR trucks.
6 degrees BTDC ( automatic and manual transmissions )
you can get it with manual or automatic.
No. Their trucks are manual.
