    Previous owner used to haul heavy loads, so he put an AAL on it and TRD front suspension with a lift and custom rear suspension for added weight capacity. I recently installed a tow package (Curt with lifetime warranty) So i will definitely see what this thing can handle as far as weight goes.
    Actually my father taught me how to drive a manual at the age of seven when he would have me switch gears for him while he drove so he could drink his coffee. Clutching is different especially with a tacoma.. I hate the tacomas clutch cause it grabs way too late. Shop cars I was used to driving grabbed about halfway out on the pedal and my taco grabs at about 90% and has since it was new. For me, it makes it harder to balance out throttle vs. Clutch due to the fact it has so little play once it grabs. But I'm getting more and more used to it everyday.

    I think it's attractive when they can't drive manual, that way they don't ask to borrow my truck and eff it all up.

    That means you have to drive them around though ( if they don't have a car ). Driving a woman around town can easily result in bra shopping if you aren't careful. It also increases the risk of ending up in a make-up section... the risks aren't worth it to me.

    let me play.

    when i was 16, probably not a good reference age because i got a boner when the wind blew..debbie. first girl i ever watched drive a stick shift. she never grabbed the knob, but she grabbed it below on the shaft portion. sexiest thing i ever saw. i sometimes still think about it.

    now? naah..it is the hot body and the hot face that makes a woman physically attractive. her "substance" or the "entire package" makes a woman truly attractive.

    Eff it up? Not me, never!! I love it when guys freak out when I double clutch. :D

    Or even better, when I ride my bike and shift without using the clutch. You just gotta get the rpms just right. ;)

    Glad to see you appreciate the beauty of MT driving:)


    I taught both of my daughters to drive manual so they wouldn't be one of those girls.
