    See all it says on discount tire is 4 different 15"s. 3 are Unique, and 1 other brand. I don't see yours

    Hell no, they both have their benefits, like more console space with a column, but I can shift more fluidly with it on the floor and I usually shift into neutral between reverse and drive

    Me too. I like column shifters more. My shifter sucks for trying to downshift if I need it.

    Ohh, idk, they're both good, its just easier on the floor for me, idk about how your shifters are on the floor though. I would think its easier for toyota to put it on the floor, but I don't know about transmissions

    I like the floor shifter personally. What gear are you trying to downshift to?

    ECT only work to up shift. And it doesn't do anything unless I have a load. And yeah, turning off o/d drops it down to 3rd gear, but sometimes I need more

    They were all factory packages though. The FJ was just the lowest of the 3 haha. That jeep was badass though. and they should have used a tacoma instead of a FJ. Nobody likes the FJ. It's like the ugly cousin nobody talks too haha

    Idk, I like the fj. And I would not consider that jeep factory, it gets sent out to a totally separate non-jeep related company to have all that work done and costs an additional 50k dollars on top of Rubicon's price from what I understand, but is that right?
