Re: Manual 4x4 still available?

Yep, they're still available. But, not as commonly found at dealerships as the 5AT's. We recently bought four 2008 6-speed manuals for our SUV/4x4 driver training programs (1 Voodoo, 1 Sun Fusion, 1 Brick and 1 Black).

it basically runs in 4 hi all the time. That's the main thing I don't like about mine.
Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out why Toyota made that particular decision. To me, it would've seemed more logical for the 6MT's to be a part-time 4x4 system.

I'm guessing it's because all Land Cruisers have been AWD since 1991, and Toyota (and the majority of their customers?) are used to it now. FWIW I really like this setup on my FJ80 and would have happily bought an MT6 FJC if I could have found one when I bought mine.
