How many people can drive a manual now?
I have one of maybe little over half dozen manual Tacomas in the SE.

True dat.
Light, powerful, decent cloth seats, good tires and five on the floor, $25k and they would sell them all day.
That’s what I bought, used of course, and auto transmission, drat.

Agreed add vent windows and offer 4x4 as an option . They wouldn’t be able to keep them in stock.

My ‘96 F-150 runs great and has all the options I need, power windows, cruise control, A/C, and even looks great.
Sold a like-new, $48k new, Silverado Duramax to get the XLT when I retired - and love it.

I think you are wrong. People want the bells and whistles.
Even in pickup trucks.

That would be my current truck but it is 15 years old.

make a quality pickup with stick shift, no gps or black box, rollup windows or fakebook at a realistic price and it would break sales records.That's me. Give me dead reliable mechanicals, a bench seat, places to plug stuff in, headrests low enough that I can keep my hat on, good towing mirrors, am/fm and a/c and I'll buy. I hate all the entertainment center/Big Brother crap.

My 2008 F-150 has rubber floors, roll up windows, manual locks, manual transmission. But don’t think it spares the luxuries! It has BOTH AM AND FM on the radio, and a cigarette lighter too! Standard!
