    I was wondering if the limited model has a armrest that will slide forward, offering more armrest room, I know my camry has that option, and my old tundra did also, since mine is an sr I thought maybe I just didn't get that option.

    no, he needs a stick shift to support the hand while the armrest holds your elbow. it's another MT hidden gem. not an easy retrofit i hear. :(

    My legs aren't the problem, I need longer arms then it wouldn't be a problem.

    Well my last truck was a 6 speed manual powerstroke, two problems, 1. I drive 90 miles a day to work and got tired of the manual in traffic. 2. My wife can't drive a stick, so if for any reason she needed to drive truck(snow, car broke, etc.) she wouldn't be able to.
    So other than a toy, I'm done with manuals for the time being.

    Oh I knew that, I was just explaining why no manual, bad part was I didn't learn from the 6speed Trans Am I traded for the powerstroke.

    Can you not move your seat back... really..! My buddy was driving with his seat so far forward that I could NOT get into his truck without moving the seat.... He said "that's the way I like it".... OK.. But consider other options if you are having an issue, I told him..!!

    I can move the seat back but it it doesn't solve my problem totally, it has more to do with where and how I like hold the wheel when I drive, I have same issue in camry with armrest in the back position, but I slide it forward and voila much better. It's not a huge problem but minor annoyance that I thought I might be able to solve.

    Being 5'1" I find the center console and shifter just right for resting my arm on and holding on to the shifter.
