My truck was overhanging the side walk the other day so I reached in and released the hand brake and gave the truck a nudge until the sidewalk was clear, reapplied the hand brake, done.

A quote from elsewhere...

'The AT would be less valuable than MT in any market, just as a reference point in your calculus, but thats just academic if you like it and want to keep it'
Regarding gen1... other gens maybe diffrent maybe not

My truck in manual was $2000 cheaper than the same spec truck with a automated trannie.

 

[JayQQ97]

Not a bad deal at all
I honestly don't recall if I had a similar deal or not, it was so very long ago!

So many times I see videos of bad guys in America trying to either car jack someone or steal a car but fail because the car is a manual LOL.

No, that's a gen2 with a chirpy throw out bearing
If my clutch is making chatter it's not quite that loud yet!
But I did have a rattle such as that 2 to 3 years that turned out to be some other major part on its way out, a VERY expensive part! Like 750$ taco part but I got it from a dealer online discount for a bit over 400$ + install

 

[JayQQ97]

Not my yota truck either!

Not when they are constantly confused on which gear to use..... 4th,5th,6th,5th,6th,5th,4th,5th etc.

Idk, it never did that with any automatics I've owned. What sort of noise?
