The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

That's good. Kind of weird that it hummed. Usually your get more of a whining noise.

 

a crawl box is all about control. while rock crawling specifically. 4 lo and lo is still to high manual and autos for some types of wheeling. brake gas brake gas to get over stuff, then it becomes all jerky and you bounce around. with a crawl box, its just gas gas gas over and done.

and you keep repeating yourself. a manual trans is not more fun it you are doing technical slow wheeling. because its just a pain to deal with the clutch. yota 5 speed is NOT an obvious winner for every situation. Could be more fun say with a LT truck where speed is your friend. Do you enjoy driving your manual in stop and go city traffic? Probably not. Thats what its like off roading.

 

If i need to go slower (rock crawling) then 4 lo is geared for it's probably to slow for me to enjoy it anyway.

i didn't know that, definitely worth knowing.

 

This is what I meant..
Although the guy who said people will still multi task with a manual has a point after my last shoulder surgery I drove my truck around for a month (manual) with my right arm in a sling lol. I live in a town with 750 people so no traffic but still

 

yes

 

Get the pos ford outa my build!

And I have both..right now haha and my first Toyota was an auto 86 truck.

They both have their place. Autos do make life easier in a lot of ways. But as a car enthusiast..manuals are the way to go. It makes everything more fun. Including offroading.

I know!! Lockers first and gears..then crawl box.

Haha yea no prob man.

I agree. Manuals are more stout and reliable too

See. Autos drive you..you don't drive the auto

Aka

Not fun haha

 

well then you're just an idiot and anything you say henceforth is invalid

 

I drove mine in Moab with on hand hahaha

 

Shaddup...take your gutless auto wonder and look at the mountains you wish you could climb haha

 

uuhhh im pretty sure i am driving my auto as much as you drive your manual. when wheeling guess what gear my auto is in...first. guess what your manual is in?


FIRST



WOA SO MUCH DIFFERENT!


Let me show everyone how big my penis is cuz i drive a manual!

 

fixed to make sense, you just said you have a auto.

 

Actually I'm in 2nd most the time..

 

k thats a really neat story. i dont really give a shit what gear im in, cuz i drive just the same as you sooo. ya

 

that part was referencing everyone with a manual

 

For what and how my truck is used for the auto it great. Don't plan on getting a crawlbox anyways either. And actually, every new vehicle I've ridden/driven in has the option to manually shift through all of the gears.

 

See...death to humanity.

 

Everything I have done offroad so far I much pretty my auto, even in the dunes. My auto does well at choosing a gear and shifts fast enough to not be a concern. If I want it to downshift I just shift the gears as I see fit. Usually I just pull it down into 3rd or so if I have problems with it shifting into 4th and 4th not having enough torque to keep up speed, but that isn't much of a concern in 4Lo with my 4.88's unless I am trying to do donuts or steep hill climbs.

I still don't see how autos drive me... haha the only time they do is when I let them and that is usually out of convenience, like stop and go traffic and such.

 

yup.

just gotta let em fap to the sound of their horn haha

 

I love how you guys with autos flock to defend your honor or whatever hahahahahahaha


It's a god damn tranny haha

And I OWN BOTH!!!

They are both nice.

And I disagree that it shift fast. My dads sucks. It shifts so slow. He could know 3-4 seconds off his 0-90 time with a manual just from how long the tranny takes to shift. With the IPT mod it's better.

And even when you put it down to 3rd I've found it doesn't always stay there..

But who cares. It's still a tacoma and it still moves.

 

not when its on its side...































boom!
