Interesting concept!

I really know next to nothing about automatic transmissions. Maybe somebody else can weigh in here.

One thing that I liked about the idea of the manual is that it's so simple, and gets better fuel economy. By putting the truck in neutral, I would be able to drive around on just the electric.
