Toyota Tacoma 5MT (2009, manual transmission, seats, engine)

[Parsec]

I came across an ad for a 2009 Tacoma V6 double cab with a manual transmission. This is the first time I've seen one. I was under the impression the 5MT only came on the single cab and extended cab models; not double cabs. Am I wrong? Is this a super rare truck?

The 1GR-FE is 4.0 L V6 Came with a 6-speed Manual... Op Does it have TRD Off-Road Package since that would be a nice combo

I don't know, the listing is gone now. Did that engine come on the double cab though? I thought they were all Access cabs. You're right - that would be a real nice combination and I'd be all over it, but only if it had a full-size back seat for my 2 kids.

One of the cool things about the tacoma is that you can order it in about any combination of engine, trim, cab, and transmission that you want.

It is rare enough, but not altogether unheard of.

its rare because nobody can drive a stick, I had to order mine, all he ever had was auto.
