4.8 V8 with a Manual

I find that too. Most are labeled Manual but show an auto shift lever on the column and the VIN reports an auto. Also, many report manually adjusted mirros, seats, etc and come up with false hits in my searches.

I had been tipped off to a truck in Minneapolis that I wasn't interested in because it was 4wd. The craigslist ad has expired, but it may still be available there.

I've come up with so few trucks with a manual that I will probably just buy one with an auto. They either have too many miles or are too far away.

Hey Mike,

I am in the same boat, along with finding some threads where they only use a 4.8 in front of them because they can't take more power.... that raises a red flag for me too. Wifey and I looked at autos last night and much to my delight there are some real nice ones around. The prices haven't jumped yet up here so maybe we will find something sooner than later.

I'll keep an eye out for you just the same.

Cheers,
Noel
