2011 deletes some manuals, adds automatics

Unless you're in Britain/Japan/ect that'd be so awkward...

 

Yeah, its a little awkward, but not impossible.

 

I shift with my left hand when its convenient too when im busy with my right

I beat off driving between Tucson and Santa Clara driving my 6 speed taco...my friend was driving his SC300 and we made a bet to see who could do it the quickest while driving. neither of us could finish tho

 

pics of the new grille?????

 

Ah.. wait... what? That's pretty disturbing... I mean really disturbing :/ Also kinda gay...


:sigh: Tucson.... you never cease to amaze me.

 

geez...chill

 

How we go from beating off while driving, to grilles? Stay on topic!

 

I could comment about beating off into grills but... oh wait I did :/


:runs:

 

I was making the point that with an auto, the likelyhood of facing a $600 - $1000 repair tab during it's lifetime is unlikely, whereas a manual has a clutch, which is a wear item. You will not be replacing any wear items on an auto..... Also on mauals, synchros, release bearing, and pilot bearings also tend to wear, degrading shift performance. But, this merely offsets the higher purchase price.

 

That is a more correct statement. True the manual tranny has more wearable parts that will degrade faster. But personally, its not enough to convince me to get an auto. Just a personal choice really.

 

So they really haven't changed anything except killing off the "good' transmissions, right? Tiz a damn shame.

 

Hi all,
The press release is not clear to me regarding exactly which manual transmission models have been deleted. Does anybody know if there will be a manual transmission 2.7l 4x4 Access Cab in 2011?
Thanks, Wolf

 

I'm banned from looking at the link for the grille so I don't know if it's a real photo or just a drawn schematic. Can someone post a actual photo of one?

 

The line art drawing is the only thing out there as of yet. No real world pics to be had.
