    Can't get 6 speed manual with the SR. Only option is a 5 speed with the 4 cylinder engine.

    True. I wanted an SR or SR5 since I tend to leave it parked at trailheads and airport lots way too much, but DC manuals are only in TRDs. I like it, its just nicer than I need for how I use it.

    I test drove a Sport 6MT, and was pleasantly surprised by the clutch and shifter feel/action (and this is from a former Honda 6MT/current BMW 6MT driver). The knob itself, however, was very flimsy; if you pushed on the top with your thumb, it would cave in a bit and make a "pop/click" sound. Seems like it's thin plastic right under the leather. I'd probably swap out the knob if I bought one, and maybe install a short shifter.

    Sorry, was talking about 3 different things at once. I know the 4 cyl SR only comes in 5speed with a manual transmission, That was all they had. I want to test drive a v6 with manual.:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
