So I’m curious if all you guys and gals would be so kind as to list which transmission you ordered with your new 2024 DarkHorse - just DarkHorse people please (because of the Tremec) not because of any perceived prejudices… thanks …

I ordered the 6 speed

Congrats on ordering your new DH but I'm not sure what you are looking for. Confirmation that you made the right choice or reasons for why you might have screwed up. What does it matter what anyone else on here thinks? It's not as if you know any of us personally. You ordered a great car with an awesome transmission. That should be enough.

Popcorn time!!! 🍿

I’m not asking for thoughts about which is better just asking for numbers- simply put numbers - who bought which transmission no reason why, just what you bought period …

This isn’t a mine is better than yours, or did I make the right choice, or any damn thing else just numbers…!!! So how bout you take your popcorn go somewhere else and stop trying to stir shit when there’s no shit to stir … hear me …???

I went with the automatic.
If I didn’t, wifey wouldn’t be on board.
Has she ever driven something with that much power ?

If that's what you wanted then start a poll. @Bikeman315 made a lighthearted comment so there isn't a need to get your panties all wadded up. There WILL be shit talking on this forum, welcomed or not lmao.
Also, something about the way that reply was constructed/said that screams boomer...GOBBLESS HOSS

Yes. I had a loaded 2022 BMW M3 Competition xDrive with flappy paddles and she loved it. Ultimately, I needed a truck for work duties and I took advantage of the ridiculous used market and sold the car for $10k more than I paid.

Getting the Dark Horse as a 3rd car.

Manual. I’ve owned an automatic mustang before. I have a pretty strong opinion about this. But note that I do not judge anyone for what they prefer to drive. This is just an account of my own experience.

The auto was such a bore for me to drive. The V8 sound gets old after a while and then there isn’t much left to enjoy about the car after that. There are better driver’s cars out there when you forget about the V8. For me, nothing about driving a manual gets old. Traffic, parking lots, open roads. They are all fun with a manual.
