    I've heard a lot of bad things about the manual in these, but the one in my 2012 OR works great. No issues, and you can shift through all six gears with two fingers. I do have a short throw on the way though.

    Around 9K miles on it.

    I refuse to drive an automatic truck unless its a full size and that's only because most of them are only available in manual with a v6 and if I own a full size I gotta have the biggest v8 they offer haha. So in short, do it!

    Sorry it took so long. I will only drive a manual. Only cons is sometimes in bad traffic but that's rate. Otherwise I feel more in control. I love it

    So thanks to Luke for coming over and helping me with roof repairs! In exchange he let me solder some things, and break one of his headlight bulbs...

    av8er are you talking about the red 4 door on CL? I've always liked access cabs over 4 doors, but that one is really nice!
