Thread: New Hilux auto vs manual

Nothing wrong with a manual mate

Yeah the only reason I started considering an auto Hilux was the extra grunt they give it, generally I like manuals much better - only ever owned one auto but driven plenty.

I can see why auto appeals to people who live in cities with stop-start traffic driving etc, but that's not me.

From what I've heard the new hybrid ones are a pretty token hybrid system so they can claim greeny points (and lower tax etc in some countries) without actually doing too much.
