Near the end of July, when I tried to find a manual H3 in my area, it was quite a battle. All they had was automatic, everywhere I went! I thought I was going to have to go to Pittsburgh, PA, (4+ hours away) just to get what I wanted. But then a dealer that was 3 hours closer called to say they had what I wanted. I picked it up 2 days later.
