    My dad runs a semi. And has driven autos. Hates autos for long haul trucks. Maybe for a local delivery, but when your passin over the Rockies with 60k lbs, a manual is the only way to get up the hill

    Nope. Autos do it safer. modern autos handle more power, more durable, are in sports cars, race cars, and get you more chicks. Quit being a hater, and move on.

    I wish I was a little more patient. I just had totaled my frontier, and needed a vehicle to drive. I had just gotten a job. When I looked at my tacoma, I was also planning to look at a 98 dodge dakota 4x4. 318 with a 5 speed manual. The holy grail of dodges. 94k miles(taco had 147k) and $500 less then my taco. I just needed a vehicle so swiped up the tacoma. While I love the taco, wish I had gotten the dodge. Mostly for the 4x4. If my truck was a 4x4, I would definitely take it over a dodge. But I've been regretting the decision every time I get stuck lol

    I guess this thread has just turned into a pick on the OP thread, instead of what I originally had posted as to why they wouldn't offer a manual in the prerunner, but would in the 4x4. I'm out
