I think that hurst makes them and you can put it on anything but I’m not really sure.

Yes

It’s fairly agricultural feeling, but it’s not bad. Definitely not the worst shifter I’ve felt.

Also, what trim/engine please?

Fine

Not terrible, at least compared to the FiST or my Dad’s Ram

Not crazy long, somewhat notchy. It’s fairly decent for what it is, and it’s on a truck with 315k miles.

2008 Tacoma 2.7/5 speed.

It was fun in my opinion, I really enjoyed it.

I thought it was surprisingly sporty, overall not bad for a truck. The manual is nice to shift around, and the throws are alright. It is a truck so the shifter is a little notchy.

I drove a 2006 Tacoma 4.0/6-speed 4X4.

Awesome, thanks. any rev hang?

I’d imagine with the TRD short shifter it would tighten it up even more.

I don’t remember any rev hang at all.

Yeah a TRD short shifter would make it feel sportier.

I have many times. Didn’t care for it honestly. Both were RWD 2.7s, if that means anything. Long legged.

Not second gen, but first gen. It was fabulous, I loved that truck.
