I test drove a manual w/ adventure package on the hill behind the dealer. The hill was only 20 yards long or so, but we idled down in 1st gear, 4-lo locked (foot off the gas) with no engine problems or lights. If this engine stalling is "normal" for the manual H3, I might order the automatic instead.
A lot of H3ers went to Moab last month and posted pix on the board. Did any of them have a 5-spd? Seems like Lion's Back and some of the other obstacles would have triggered this behavior.
