I notice Avalanche gets standard 6-speed but Silverado does not. What is the story there and how many Silverado's are likely to be built with 6-speeds? If I understand correctly, the 6-speed was available on Silverado's part-way through the last cycle but pretty much every one I look at on the lots is 4-speed...was it special-order only or something? If I buy one in the future, new or used, I'd really want the 6-speed...and I wonder how much this limits my selection.
