<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I know of a man that went through a few of manual boxes in a couple of Landcruisers that he had.
He did alot of heavy towing & recently he's been going for ones with Auto boxes & he says that it's
far better, the Auto box is way more capable of dealing with the heavy loads
There's more "give" in an Auto, and I wouldn't like to be without engine braking when going downhill with a heavy load.
