    70s tractor, really?

    You must have not had that many manual pick ups, because 3rd gen MT is very smooth. Most of the time I shift gears by flicking my wrist, not even lifting the elbow from the armrest.

    If you want 70s tractor feel, go drive a manual Ford ranger and report back.

    I don't know why manual double cabs come with a power rear window, your arm is in the back seat anyways when you shift to second you can just open it then by hand.

    Haha! So true!

    Although, all construction workers here use imperial. I’m better with inches/feet than centimetres and millimeters now. I tried explaining to my dad about 1/8-1/4/-1/2” etc and he is like wtf is this. He still doesn’t get it, I think it’s super simple.

    I traded my 2021 wheels for a set of 2019 wheels. Took the air dam off to make the truck look taller; I didn’t notice any difference in fuel economy at all.

    Alrighty.

    You either have 5 foot arms or you have no clue what you are talking about. I’ll take a video for you if you don’t believe me. My elbow stays on the armrest 90% of time.

    Threw us off when we did the west coast trail how Canadians use ounces for alcohol but are metric for everything else. Like a 26er (ounce) instead of 750ml. There was alot of confusion with our Canadian friends when we were talking about drinking two 40s (of malt liquor) and they thought we meant forty pounders.

    Then they kept talking about mickeys and we were like why would you wanna carry those things backpacking??? thinking of these:

    I'm not, I prefer the MT for may daily driving on my daily country roads... No working stop light for at least ~5+ miles. Sounds like you have never driven one, the throw is not bad at all and VERY smooth. In 25 years of owning cars, only one has been a AT. Never driving a 1970's manual tractor, but they must be smooth :rolleyes:
