I've offroaded manuals for years. I can't think of a single time where I was paying attention to the tach. If it's a technical trail I'm watching the trail and my spotter and listening to the engine, not watching the dash. The sound of the engine will tell me if I need to shift. Heck, I've driven super base model manuals that had no tach at all. It's a 'nice to have' but not a 'need to have'.I would very much prefer the 100% digital dash that the Mustang has (even though I’ve never used it). Something about a useless speedometer on the left and a digital tachometer just isn’t conducive to driving a manual.
