    Hi,
    I'm a new member with a TRD OR manual transmission, which replaced my 2015 Wrangler 2-door. I bought the latter when I was living in a Condo, but after buying a house which required a little more work than I originally expected I found myself needing a more practical vehicle for Home Depot runs. Although I did love my Wrangler, when I would go to pick up 2x4's or anything remotely long it wasn't a pleasant experience. A 2x4 would go all the way up to the windshield and hang out the back of the Wrangler. It too was a manual transmission like every vehicle I've owned except my first one. So I would have to shift, grab the 2x4's to keep them from moving around, shift, grab them again, and continue that cycle until I got home.

    So anyway, I decided to trade it in for a more practical, yet fun, vehicle. I love the TRD OR, I wouldn't have necessarily bought that particular trim, but if you want a V6 with a manual Toyota only lets you get that setup with a TRD package. I would've liked to save a little money and get an SR5, but the TRD OR is great!

    I chose the TRD OR over a jeep for that same reason. Jeeps are great off road and the chicks dig them, but the Taco was more practical for me. Welcome man nice ride
