Manual vs Automatic transmission.

Hey all. I'm looking at possibly upgrading my truck to a heavy duty truck. I found what I thought was a pretty good deal on a 2011 Dodge 3500 drw. I'm currently pulling a trailer that is around 6500 loaded.

I'm curious about towing with a manual transmission. Pros and cons? I grew up driving manuals, so I'm not afraid. I've just never towed with a manual.


Not looking for the "weight police", just curious about challenges, struggles with towing using manual.

Thanks advance!
