Dear Toyota: 5th Gen with a M/T Trans?

[024RunnerSE]

They have it in the Taco, they got it in the FJ Cruiser, a Trail Edition with a 6spd Manual transmission please???

I've been kicking around the idea of getting another FJ Cruiser but this time with the M/T. I got rid of my FJ because it was having rear diff issues just a tick past warranty, but I kinda miss it but at the same time, I don't. Toyota brought back the transfer case lever, will they be kind enough to toss a stick for the Trail Edition as an option? I garuntee you guys I'll be the first on this forum with one if they offer it.

Just a rant.. sighs

If Toyota doesn't come up with this in the next year or two, I'll buy a used 4Runner TE past it's warranty and do a M/T swap out of a rolled FJ 6spd or something. I really like the 4Runner over the FJ because it does so much right that the FJ Cruiser failed at. Now, if they built the next gen FJ on a Prado 2 door platform with a removable top, you know where I'll be.
