    Hawaii reveal is x-runner paradise, manual confirmed could we be getting a manual 3.5 leafspring rwd x-runner, or maybe a turbo 4, or maybe a twin turbo v6? this is the only teaser with rear leafs, why tease a base model? Tacoma Gr let's gooooooo.

    Recently read that Toyota is making a 2-door Tacoma, but you can't get it with a manual. You have to buy the crew cab.

    Your engine choices are a turbo-4 or a turbo-4 hybrid.

    One would think Toyota can easily put a manual in the extended cab, drop the suspension a couple inches, throw on a body kit, and they have the next X-Runner. That would be extremely easy to do, but I guess they don't see a market for it.

    At least Toyota is giving us a manual in the latest generation!

    Huh, interesting, do you think Toyota's decision not to pursue it is because they don't see a significant demand or market for such a vehicle?

    They should turn it over to the GR folks. They'll slap on a lowered suspension, BBK, and add some ground effects...and could probably do it in 30 days after receiving the first 2024 extended cab...lol

    Lower it. Put in the coil springs and give it a manual. 2 wheel drive only.
    I think Toyota will do it after the initial sales rush for the 4th gen slows down.
