Re: Why all time 4 wheel drive with stick?

Hello All..Well this past Saturday I bouyght an FJ but they are looking for the color and spec I want. i really am a stick guy but dont like the mpg loss due to the all time 4 wheel. Any idea why they didnt give you the 2 wheel/4 wheel drive option on the stick? Im torn between the 2...i dotn plan to do any serious off roading but I love driving a stick. I do a lot of highway miles though and losing 2 miles per gallon adds up...Can anyone give me soem feedback advice? Should I go automatic or manual?

I got a manual trans because I cannot stand AT, but I don't commute heavily in the FJ. I don't really know what to tell you... I don't see the point of a 2WD FJ; I'd just get a Prius (hey wait, we have one). [no flames, please!]

So are all you manual T drivers keeping in H as it says to when you're on the road? Pardon my ignorance, but what if you just left it in N (the 4wd stick, not the gears duh)? With the Tacoma I could be in 2WD or 4WD, and I haven't read the FJ manual fully yet.
