I don't use it to go off-road. I have a crawler for that. This is for my daily driving. But I took it on a trail once, performed as expected. I think manuals would be just fine on the trails, but when it come to rock crawling, I would prefer automatics.

Welcome from a fellow 99 5sp owner. I've been in a few spots on rocks where I wish I didn't have a clutch pedal but other than that, I prefer the ability to engine brake.
