Manual transmission Fan Club and BS thread (All Generations Welcome)

Need to four-wheel my TRD Off-Road to Whole Foods. Gonna pick up some sushi for lunch and something to grill later.

We'll see if we need the locking diff, will let everyone know how it goes. Might grab a latte too.

 

You'll need that locker on the wheelchair ramp.

Good luck!

 

Sold out, otherwise I would have bought this!

 

They have not launched yet. @MESO said the molds are currently in CNC. So, time to be hitting refresh like a luny person!

 

A man has to do what a man has to do.

 

For @MESO mods? Yaasss!

 

Never bought any Meso yet...what does he offer in Ti?

 

Worth its weight in Ti, just like @7r41lbr34k3r 's rocking stuff.

 

This annoying ass click comes and goes on my clutch. Anyone else?

ORLANDO, Fla. -- A man was arrested in Florida after sheriff's deputies say he tried to steal a car from an elderly man in Orlando.

The reason he was unsuccessful? He didn't appear to know how to drive a stick shift, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

The incident occurred Tuesday when an elderly man left his car running with the keys in the ignition while he was putting his walker into the trunk.

According to the sheriff's office, a man, later identified as 25-year-old Jaylen Alexander, allegedly attacked the elderly man, slamming the hood of the trunk on his chest and his walker.

Alexander is accused of then getting into the man's car, locking the doors and trying to drive away. After stalling multiple times, Alexander left the car and took off running, the sheriff's office said. The elderly man told authorities he believed the reason Alexander stalled was because he did not know how to drive a manual transmission, according to a sheriff's arrest affidavit.

A few minutes later, Alexander allegedly stole a car from a health care clinic across the street, where a woman had left her car running while she went to get her mother from inside, the sheriff's office told CNN affiliate WFLA. Deputies say they chased Alexander, eventually catching him across town.

Alexander is charged with carjacking, battery on a person age 65 or older and grand theft of a motor vehicle, Orange County court records show. Alexander was arraigned Thursday. It is unclear whether he has formal legal representation at this time.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office declined to provide additional comment.

The problem with grommet is that the chrome collar will now shine at you.

For wizard level, there's this:


Ping @7r41lbr34k3r to purchase.

No click, but I have some occasional "creaking".

 

Still missing my 6spd. Some days, I can't drive the automatic I have now. I end up I park when I want reverse, then I'm in neutral instead of drive.

 

Same here. With an MT, it is just another opportunity to shift.

 

Ya I do that also. Hit my foot to the floor and like wtf where did the pedal go. O that’s right it’s a RAV4. My wife is like did u do it again?
