    How’s your coordination and what’s your comfortability/experience off road?

    Do you like dogs?

    I don’t wanna overwhelm the guy. I just figured I’d just be myself, get to know him a little at first.

    I prefer automatic for the Wheeling I do. I don't have to worry about gearing as much, and I can always use s mode to limit the truck to what I want.

    MTs aren’t common. Let alone trd off road 4x4 in MT. That/that in the long bed are the rarest configurations.(excluding pros)
    That’s why the title didn’t include that small section of the population.
    Also I should have specifically stated both equipped with 4x4.

    If you want the best performance offroad, driver skills and all other variables being equal, an OR with a locked rear will out perform an open diff sport every day, all day.

    Yeah the real reason for an OR is the locker .. what is the point in 4wd without a locker? For a fake scoop? It was a no brainer for me.Sport vs OR. But at for the crawl control . Can't beat CC and maxtrax or wood rocks etc. If your really "there".

    Since when? Off-road has a locker, regardless of the transmission.

    That’s not the question in the post.
    AT off-road 4x4
    MT sport 4x4
    Locker vs MT is an opinion.
    Opinions are facts?
