It is not a problem to live with an asynchronous gearbox, and you do then not need
to lend the car to anybody. And I got to thinking about something I read on
this website:
«A car with a manual transmission literally
needs you in a way an automatic doesn't. Like the bond that a horse
and its rider form when things are in sync, you, too, will feel the pleasure of
the relationship that develops between you and your manual-transmission car.»
The person who wrote this should have tried an asynchronous gearbox;
then he would really feel the ties tightening. 
Another thing — when I'm catching up with cyclists, it's not uncommon for me to have to downshift,
and with all this violent throttle; Do they think I'm angry? Maybe I should roll down the side window when
I drive by and shout that I'm not angry?

• What is written on this page is based on my experiences with TRD1. Maybe it will be different on other models.
• The synchronization rings can be damaged if you use the wrong type of gear oil.
• Maybe this oil can help with poor synchronization?
