After months of research and watching AUTOMATIC Tacoma owners rave about upgrading their gears to 5.29, and seeing NOTHING for MANUAL Tacoma's, I got my 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport MANUAL re-geared to Nitro Gears 5.29! This video shows a before and after comparison of driving at highway speeds and my initial impressions. At the end of the video I also show off my truck a little. This is for the 10% of us Tacoma enthusiasts with manual transmission trucks, and I hope it helps fellow manual owners with the decision about what size of gears to put in their trucks.
