    Yep.
    2.7? Have a weird intermittent "stumble" around 2k RPM's. There's a TSB flash out there but dealers ARE THE DEVIL.

    HEY!

    Would stick that sticker

    We have a tune for majority of 2.7 also the TSB
    We’re still waiting on the 2019. I think that’s the only 2.7 we don’t have.

    We’ve had customers tell us the dealer updated the TSB for $150. We go to load the tune and the update is not there…

    superior in what regard? Reliability, cost, complexity, drivability, ease of maintenance? I see 5 checkboxes that support a 3rd pedal there and none for the AT.

    I buy a truck to drive. It’s not a sports car. The clutch is quite heavy with deep throws. Not sporty at all, quite a chore to drive from my test drives (many).

    I respect those who enjoy it. But I’ll stick to a manual in other vehicles.

    Like that GR Corolla of yours. Can I have a test drive? :burnrubber:

    the RA60F is definitely clunkier than some of the other stick shifts I’ve driven but not terrible. A clutchmasters throwout bearing has fixed the heavy pedal for me and the URD short shifter fixes the throws.

    shit my zf-6 is like towing a boat but it’s good exercise.

    I’ll allow a test drive if you sign the waiver :rofl:

    keeping jersey dirty
    Your argument for the manual is a bit less convincing when you follow it up by mentioning multiple ways you've modified it for it to work better haha
