I agree. I learned driving in a manual car...had a manual car when I live in California which was great on Hwy 1 or out in the open roads of central and eastern California. But driving in the Bay Area...especially in cities like SF...it sucked. You end up with 'clutch-titus' in the left leg.I've never been one to want a manual in a truck. I'm sure many will be happy about this though. I drove manuals most of my life with the last 5 years being the exception. I don't really miss it, especially in such a densely populated are that I live in.
There was a manual trans in all but one of my trucks. I'm now in the automatic camp. Nonetheless, I'm pleased that Toyota is keeping the stick option. Manuals are great to use and can be good fun.I've never been one to want a manual in a truck. I'm sure many will be happy about this though.

Yea, but then you get the question...'so, are you doing anything next Saturday?'Might keep some of my neighbors from borrowing it?
drove a 2008 for 10 years. Nothing went wrong but so boringprobably the best small pickup on the road is a Tacoma w/4 banger and a manual transmission.
OMG, that's the story of my younger days.Yea, but then you get the question...'so, are you doing anything next Saturday?'
I'm actually dumbfounded. I'd of wagered that the manual option was gone for good. Supposedly the take rate was only 6 percent or slightly higher.2024 Toyota Tacoma Will Keep the Manual Transmission Alive
