Even at that, the clutch had 150K miles on it by the time the synchros were so worn I couldn't get it into gear.

**** my old ‘91 S-10 pickup I could shift without the clutch.

After I reached about 120K, I could shift in/out of any gear without the pedal as long as I was under about 2500 RPM (redline 5K). At about 150K I couldn't get it into 1st or 2nd reliably.
