I picked "I couldn't get the car I wanted with a manual because they aren't made (excl hybrid)" which isn't 100% true. For my style/generation of truck, I was finding thousands with autos, but even expanding my search to the entire US, I found a grand total of three for sale with manuals after several months of searching. A few years later, GM, Dodge, and Ford stopped putting manuals in half-tons completely (Toyota and Nissan never had them).
