Awesome channel made independently which makes it more appealing to me! Dude seems like a true enthusiast who knows his stuff, would love to see how well it does in deep deep snow with some snow tires.. Snow driving isn't as high impact as driving it on desert courses, or over boulders.. Your driving was great man I'm sure no1's worried about that or the talking portions, it's not like you were spewing nonsensical bile like many over produced channels on CZcams. Seems like a newer channel, as a viewer belonging to the male between ages 18-25 demographic, most fickle but also most abundant demographic, surely makes up the majority of folks who seek out content like this... Anyway: my suggestion if I had to provide one to better your channel would be to think about improving the audio, I find directional (Shotgun) microphones to work well for exhaust clips, so long as it's equipped for wind noise reduction. there are covers of all shapes and sizes for that... Then for interior POV portions the best mics are of course Simple open lapel clip microphones, usually they're quite cheap and many channel creators provide links for the ones that work best for them after trying a few different ones. Anyway, subscribed. You have good taste that's the ideal spec for the current gen tacoma and I look forward to more content
snazari1994 Duddddddddee I know right? He wasn't even looking for a manual TRD Pro yet there just happened to be a 6 speed TRD Pro available like whattt how could that not be your first choice?! Toyota's such a conservative company so they hate making variations available for drivetrain powertrain and transmissions, like many auto manufacturers but still this is the best pickup truck you could possibly own out of the box it will last 500,000 miles easy if he's on point with maintenance and doesn't destroy the truck by lifting it and fitting larger wheel tire setup. The only modification this truck could benefit from would be whatever TRD parts that it doesn't already come with... i.e. TRD Supercharger :)
100% agree, I have 2017 TRD Sport 6 speed and it's trade in value is more than the Autos. I had my dealer call me and ask if I wanted to get rid of it! He's had a bunch of interest in recent pre owned Taco's with 6 speeds!
I’ve gotten into the manual mid sized myself and I love it. They’re just not like the normal trucks nowadays and they’ll be in demand when all these people want the few that were made
Always good to see an actual owner review. Thanks for the info you gave about the truck and your impressions. I also like the silent driving where you actually get to hear the engine. #SAVETHEMANUALS
Glad someone posted a video with the trd pro manual, just wish you left the pavement for us. Also I’d like to hear what gear you’re in at which speed. And a close up of the rpms and speedometer during accelerations.
Having just test driven both the manual and auto in 2020 Tacomas, I decided to order a manual. It was a VERY difficult choice because I do plan on doing some serious offroading in the future and I went into this expecting to buy an auto, for the additional features it offers. However, after driving the auto I kind of hated it. Toyota did reprogram the auto for 2020 and it is a bit better than 2019, but it's still a very lethargic transmission. It doesn't hunt nearly as much, but it still feels very slow, even without any payload. That said, re-gearing the diff to 4.88s or 5.29s will fix the auto's performance and can improve the manual's as well. Conversely, the manual definitely feels more responsive to throttle inputs, as long as you're in the right gear for the situation. Even though I ordered a manual and have no regrets, it was a hard choice because offroading on any technical or challenging terrain is extremely difficult with a manual, which is why I wanted the auto, but I'm glad I went manual. I'll probably just avoid the really tough trails. Now for the critique, I really do hate these kinds of videos because they give me a headache due to all the jerky movements.. It would be MUCH better to just suction mount the camera either to the sunroof or the side window and aim it at the road and gauge cluster.
Critique noted. I have always used a helmet cam for recording my bike rides. So I just did the same with this review which was a mistake! lol. I took my taco off road and what you do is just leave it in first and crawl. No clutch involved and super easy. Some of the stuff was super gnarly and painful to hear but it runs like a champ. All the guys I go with have manual jeeps and they were like don't use the clutch. just let it crawl.
Bummer you have the tach covered by the steering wheel. Seeing the RPM's would have been nice. At any rate, nice review and good job on picking the manual. Drives way better than the sluggish auto.
Great video and nice POV driving perspective! . Westchester county ny? I am looking at 2018-19 TRD and was going for the auto but think i might grab the manual now. Vid of the GT3 RS next ;)
I own a 2019 trd off road manual and unfortunately I wouldn't recommend it there's a defect on it. Ones the truck is at a running temperature and your driving over small bumps on the road and you out the clutch in or set it in neutral you can her a rattle sound sounds like it's coming from the transmission I took it to my dealership and after a week of being there they told me it was normal so I test drove 2 different trucks and they all did the same there a video on CZcams "TACOMA MANUAL TRANSMISSION RATTLE" my truck and the other trucks I tested sounded the same not to many people know because the manual is not that comon just trying to put the word out so maybe Toyota can address the problem because it's embarrassing to have 35 thousand truck that rattles over bumps
In this day and age, you are the only person alive that wanted an automatic and got stuck with a manual. Not sure how that happened. Be thankful you got a manual.
i am digging your manual TRD Pro Taco. I bought a new manual 2011 TRD Sport in magnetic grey, i think that this 6 speed manual Pro in cement is my next move. Enjoy your cool rig, homie.
I'm not sure if I'm mistaken. But I own two 4runners the limmited and trd pro. And I've noticed that the limmited model has some more dead zone at low speed and at higher speeds it becomes very direct and linear. Also the steering wheel is very tight. Even at low speeds the wheel is heavy.
Awesome review! I also drive a taco manual. And I swear I thought i was watching myself drive in the twisties. Also you can heal toe..need to change footing a bit..kinda like heal side foot. lol Did you get the tune? Makes it a tad more enjoyable to drive..a bit more direct. REALLY ENJOYED YOUR VID!
Tommy Barlow. Yep it's there. I think the only thing I'm missing are the smart keyless, crawl and terrain select which are replaced by ATRAC. The smart phone charger, tpms, parking sensors etc are there.
Do you still have the Tacoma? If you do does the transmission make rattle noise when you drive slow over bumps or rough terrain in neutral or clutch in .
Kiko Rubio not really. Maybe if I’m in the wrong gear. I did take it off Road as well which banged up my wheels pretty bad but the truck is a champ and has been super solid.
@@s4awd2 thanks for the quick reply I have 2019 off-road when I first heard it I took it in to the dealership they said it was normal so I did some research and there's a lot of tacos that have it and they say it's normal but I don't know seems crazy to have a 30k+ truck and it rattles over bumps . If you have some time Look up on CZcams "Tacoma manual transmission rattle". Mine does it to but not as loud as the one in the video
Great info! I was dead set on the TRD Pro 6MT, but after spending some time behind the wheel I started thinking what on earth am I getting for the $7k over the TRD OR. The suspension, LED fogs, exhaust, leather seats, a non-functional hood scoop, skid plates... I don't see $7,000 there. The missing sunroof is a tough pill to swallow too. I still think if I buy the O/R I will wish I had a Pro, but then if I'm going to drop $41k on a Pro I started looking at the base Raptor too for another $11k. Not sure I am cope with losing the manual trans. Why did you want the Pro over the O/R? AND, based on your other cars, did you consider the Raptor at all? I doubt price was much of a concern for you as it's not for me, but I still struggle with the seemingly poor value of the Pro and the seemingly great value of a base (or near base) Raptor.
JortsRider - Thanks for the comment. I totally agree. Aside from the fox shocks your not getting much more. The Pro is an odd duck. Jeep doesn't add power gains for there more trail focused rubicons which is fine for crawling. However it doesn't make sense for Toyota to add fox shocks for high speed desert running but not add more power for the high speed running :P. I looked at the raptor but it is just too new and the dealer markups are ridiculous. It's also HUGE. In the end OTD pricing approached $75-80k which didn't make sense given I basically use it to haul my bikes. That said, the TRD pro just looks the business and should be extremely reliable. You can make the OR look just as nice if not nicer at a much better value but the cement gray got me :).
I had my 2016-TRD-4x4DblCab -Manual shipped 3,300 miles just to get a Manual. 0- Tacomas are sent to Florida with Manual Transmissions. Love my Taco- FYI i have daily a Tacoma since i was 16, iam 48
callofdutyguy9 not driving your truck or modifying it to make it your own just to keep resale value up, is like not screwing your girlfriend to keep her tight for the next guy. if your payi g for it, you should be able to enjoy it! ha ha
He'll make a ton of $ if he keeps it stock, I'd give it 14-17 years ffrom now for when safety, emissions regulations delete the possibility of a truck similar to this being made again which will make the value skyrocket in the used car market.
When it’s time for me to get a new truck I’m trying to debate on engine and manual or auto. I have only had automatic but when I was 16 I wanted a manual so bad. My dad talked me out of it and I ended up with a auto ford ranger as my first car. I really wanted a 90s Tacoma manual double cab. Basically I’m lost though on which engine I should buy and manual or auto. The truck will now haul my wife and kid
McSlama Jama if this is your only vehicle, I would go auto so your wife can use the car to shuttle the little one when needed. If not, 6 speed all the way bruh.. :)
Sometimes from 1st to 2nd I think but not all the tine. I’ll just moved the truck and didn’t hear anything but I think I know what you’re talking about. It is a truckish transmission but if it’s consistent you may want to bring to a dealer
Can't hear the engine , hardly hear you speaking .Question anything new with the rusting chassis? Has Toyota do anything new to the chassis to stop the bad rusting issue , thanks.
JOGO go pro mic can only do so much. I could have open the window but the wind noise would have taken over. They resolved the issues with rust. So much so that they won't allow dealers to charge for underbody rust protection spray given any additional non factory rust protection would make it worse.
@@s4awd2 Nah, I've seen plenty of double cab Tacomas out in the streets way before I saw this video. I still say it looks weird. Now, the double cab with the 6ft long bed looks MUCH better. But it's like driving a limousine it's so long.
I would rather the long bed. Only problem is that I want a manual transmission. Guess what? Can’t have both! Why they don’t offer the stick with a long bed is plain stupid.
Maybe ! Or possibily the majority you speak of hasn't driven a proper truck. This truck is the biggest pile of garbage I've ever owned... the differential is f***ed at 6000km, it's leaking all over my driveway whining like crazy on the highway and unfortunately the fact that yours drives fun doesn't help me . 1-2 gear the truck barely has enough power to move without bucking aggressively until it hits 3700rpm . Also this truck gets worse mileage then my 2015 f-150 lariat that I've owned since before I bought this Tacoma as a second vehicle "commuter" . Explain that to me . Tacoma has 1/2 the power 1/2 the capacity 2 times the road noise and a shittier ride...
drewpert 15 ... how do you come to that conclusion I assure you have owned both vehicles... do you need photographic proof of the mileage between the two trucks?

Cant wait to pick up my manual taco tomorrow!
Congrats sir. Enjoy in good health!
@@s4awd2 after 2 hours of negotiations I got it! Thank your channel for the last minute convincing I needed
The best part about manual transmission is ,, nobody is gonna ask you to borrow from you . Since most people can’t drive manual transmission..👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
It's called a millennial anti theft device!
Lol I can honestly say I never have loaned or been asked to loan my vehicle out
Right lol my 08 Mustang GT is a Manual and only my father can drive it basically 😅 no one at work also knows how to even start it 😒
I know that's right 😂mine is a 2012 TRD sport 4x4 manual.. Not only is it fun to drive it, but nobody else can😂because they don't know how... Yasss!
It got to the point, I was called selfish! 😂😂 screw them
This taco will be a worth so much in the future. trd pro with 6 speed. Take care of this dude
No kidding, especially with these sluggish auto/trans combos that are terrible in my opinion. Have a 06 TRDOR MT Love it.

Nice to know there are still vehicles that have standard transmissions that have to be driven. I'm starting to like the Tacoma.
This will be my future truck!! I think this might be the best small truck out there.

My 1988 4runner did that. So many manuals do this. My 2020 does. Seems normal.
It's not a defect. My 2017 Frontier Pro4x does the same thing. I think it's just a native characteristic of a lot of truck manuals.
Yup. My 2000 did it as well. I was disappointed that this new one did it but also instantly recognized that it’s a Tacoma! Mixed feelings I guess. Lol
Make sure you keep this truck nice lol it's gonna be worth something in the future.
In this day and age, you are the only person alive that wanted an automatic and got stuck with a manual. Not sure how that happened. Be thankful you got a manual.
Right? In my area you will never see a manual you have to order
