Snow PLow Driving Styles

I am in the process of getting a 2nd gen truck with a plow for my 3 pieces of property. Along with my personal needs I want some serious plow accounts for spare money. I have a 2nd gen with an AUTO trans. My next one will be a manual, no questions asked. I have had no problems, just want to change things up. I have spent many hours plowing in trucks with auto trans, most of these hours were in a Duramax chevy. I am curious about:
PLOWING STYLES IN A TRUCK WITH MANUAL TRANS. Any feed back, tips, info, ideas, etc. Anything will be digested. THanks a ton guys

DAVE

P.S. I am planning on a 06 from Tomygun. The plow truck will be the toy with bombs, and all the mods(stack, injectors, train horn, c.b., many more)
