I like the 13/15/18spds. Even though I've never hauled above 80,000lbs (well, legally, anyway), I liked having the ability to split the gears.
What's really fun, though, is when you work for a company that has identical trucks except some are straight-10's and some are super-10's. Switch trucks and destroy the transmission.
