Is this normal, or am I really that sick?

Had a few /6 cars and had fun with them but the only /6 vehicle I owned didn't like so much was a 74 D100 short bed. Drove that underpowered thing for 5 years before I got a 79 3/4 ton with a teen and 4.10 gears and LSD. Haven't had another full size truck with a 6 since! One thing I found out is that 6 cylinder engines work much better with manual transmission! :D
