First of all it seems to be a thing of the past unless I wanna drive a 6500lb. F-250, or do a SAS. I guess its all about what the market demands which is convenience. But, you would think with gas prices the way they are the marketing engineers would offer manual hubs. Maybe not enough people want them???? Maybe too many people complained about them (you know, now I gotta get out and turn that little knob)??? Like to hear others opinion on the subject. Wonder how much worse the MPG is with the front turning vs. unlocked hubs??
