Are manual transmission owners like the crossfitters / essential oils of TW

Let's stop this before someone gets a swift kick from an oversized left leg.

 

Wait.... Yall have wives? Was that a dealer incentive?

 

Yes

 

2016 owner here- I will say, being able to click on by the literal hundreds of "my transmission is so baaaaad" wambulance threads was pretty freeing.

Also frankly, these trucks are boring as hell to drive on the road. Pretty sure id fall asleep and wreck in an auto

 

Was gonna get an AT but Tacomaworld convinced me that it would be undriveable.

 

They make the Tacoma in auto? Oops!

 

The hardware is not the problem. The software was borked.

 

Well, the autos have little baby gears too. If they had 4.30s like the autos theyd probably not be half bad.

 

Hi guys!

Just want to make sure everybody knows that i drive MT. I also drink ginger tea and eat kale.

Thank you.


And of course...

 

6MT and wasnt impressed does not go in the same post, im sorry.

 

One week its sienna engine, next week its camry engine... what the fuck is happening here?

 

tons of people already do that, just look at the mudding community or people who think anything made past 1985 is shit.

 

I almost always prefer a manual transmission but I’m in the same boat as you. 3 x knee surgeries and only 25% of the meniscus I came with mean no MT for me.

 

Very true.

 

What's the biggest tire size I can put on a MT Tacoma?

 

If the gear ratio in ATs were the same as the mt, nobody would complain.

The surest fix for the AT is 5.29.

 

Well, since it has three pedals you can slap a 37 on there stock...you can shift it right up in that mofo

 

Fuck yeah vegan trans.

 

I also suspect you eat tofu and spend your evenings doing high intensity circuit training AKA crossfit

 

Funny true story - the truck I bought (OR MT) was sold the previous evening and returned to the dealership the following day. Apparently the guy's wife forced him to trade it back in for an AT saying that if he ever needed to get rushed to the hospital she wouldn't be able to drive the truck. Saved me a few dollars
