Welcome from Australia fellow WJer!-I live in the greater Sacramento, CA area.
-Rig is 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo.
-I have quite a bit of back country experience but new to overlanding, haven’t had a rig in a few years due to life and being busy. Currently stock piling parts to build my rig and going through the engine. I’m a heavy duty technician for Ford, avid hunter and outdoorsman.

The manual transmission is great and is fine Off Road if you are an experienced driver, makes the truck really fun to drive, and should be fairly robust. From my research it is similar design to the Hilux transmissions. Only thing I don't like about it is the reverse is geared a bit high.How well has that Tacoma been handling mild climbing? That is the Tacoma I been considering to get it has to be manual because I just don't trust the automatic transmission and besides last time I drove an automatic I just about tossed everyone out the front windshield when I went to stop at a light and mistook the brake pedal for the clutch........
