    I was looking for the clutch the very next morning when I started my truck the next day. After years of driving a manual, it was weird at first but loved it once I was in bumper to bumper traffic :thumbsup:

    Show picture of wife.

    Just kidding, you have a keeper in her and the truck. The truck will grow on you with the extra room and auto tranny. You may even get used to the V6.

    Congratulations.

    Nice truck! I too, went from manual to auto on my '14. Took some getting used to, but have to admit - on the trail I much prefer the auto and also very convinced that the auto is super reliable with very little maintenance.

    Understood, my friend. I miss my RC and the manual tranny already. But in the end I know this truck is 100% more practical for us. As nice as this rig is, had she found a base Prerunner, that would've been just fine with me too.
