    Hey guys, I figured i'd make an appearance since i finally bought another toyota truck.
    Previously i've owned an 89 V6 pickup and a 90 4Runner (both were destroyed in accidents)

    So here I am with my new truck 2012 TRD Sport 6spd Man 4x4 :D

    Hope to meet some of you and do some wheeling!

    Very nice.

    How are you liking the 6 speed? I'll be buying a '12 soon, but can't decide between the off road or the sport. (I don't do much offroading) It will be a 6 speed, even with the complaints I've heard on here. Congrats!

    Well the Day that i've had it, i've been getting a lot of compliments! The 6spd is fine though the last gear is really only for highway since it drops the RPM by a few hundred. As far as i'm concerned, the quality and options blow away many in the same class.
