I was reading in my new Diesel Power and they have like a 6 page spread on the new 6.7L Scorpion diesel engine. Supposed to be the best V8 diesel Ford has ever had in a pickup. They are quoting between 390-420 HP and 700-750 lb-ft of Torque. Very impressive numbers!!

2010 F250 5.4L V8 manual trans-8300lbs towing capacity
2010 F250 5.4L V8 auto trans- 9300lbs towing capacity
I bet the towing difference in the diesel between the manual and the automatic would be even greater.

I dont know (mechanically) why the towing numbers are different from automatic trans to manual trans but i would bet money that this is why you cant find a 2010 manual trans with the diesel. I know your towing capacity increases substancially with a automatic transmission with a gas powered motor vs a manual and i bet the difference only increases more from a manual tran diesel to an automatic trans diesel.

2010 F250 5.4L V8 auto trans- 9300lbs towing capacity
I bet the towing difference in the diesel between the manual and the automatic would be even greater.

And the reason why I think the automatic has progressed into a better trans than a manual is because countless hours have been invested into autos in the last few years however the manual has kind of been neglected.
