Manual Or Automatic?
WHAT DO YOU DRIVE AUTO OR MANUAL? AND WHY?:o
|
I drive a manual because I like to have control of my car.
|
I drive an automatic. Basically, I am too damn lazy... Plus I never bothered to learn how to drive a manual.
|
in north america it's something like 85% that drive automatics....
|
manual! too many problems with automatics...
|
I'd get an auto so i can burn out in 1st :rolleyes:
rofl, I drive teh stick! :D |
Manual. There was no way I was going to pay an extra $800 just so I wouldn't have to shift. Plus my last car was an auto and it didn't always shift when I wanted it to while I was passing somebody.

If its a small economy car with a small engine and little power, go stick shift.
if its a larger car or a truck with more power and a big engine, go automatic. The large cars or trucks with big powerful engines and used for towing are better with an automatic. These cars are harder to drive with a manual. The small economy cars are very easy to drive with a manual because the power is low and the clutch pedal very light and easy to push in. |
Additional Advantages
Although the differential between the two has grown smaller in recent years, opting for manual transmission continues to yield superior fuel savings compared to that of an automatic. That, coupled with a greater degree of vehicle control, continues to influence my decision when it comes to choosing a transmission. Manual presents sportiness, efficiency, and control-- all simultaneously.
The choice is obvious. It is your destiny. |
I would have paid $800 for manual over auto... getting it standard was great, haha
|
manual, the car just felt a lot more sluggish with the auto.
|
Manual, its the way to go...
|
Manual! I learned to drive on one (81 Jeep CJ8) and an automatic has never felt right. Real men use a clutch.:D
|
MANUAL!!! will NEVER drive auto AGAIN!
it's more fun to drive manual (i take the scenic routes to everything though). |
I'm an Auto gal myself.. (no "real man" here Mark_02DX).. I used to have a standard.. and it was fine.. but this is a road trip car.. and a few of my friends aren't comfortable driving standard.. since I don't care either way.. I went Auto..
Standards traditionally get better milage.. but it is VERY close now.. and the way I've seen zoom-zoomers drive standards.. I'd imagine the milage I get is the same or better than some as my car usually shifts at more fuel effecient places ;) I've been very impressed with this Auto.. I've never had an auto that I had so much control over.. I can have her shift up at any rpm I want (from about 2200 up to the fuel cut off obviously).. as far as shifting down goes I don't have any control (without D2, etc).. I just let her do her own thing.. The only thing I don't like.. is the cruise control in this car is not terribly smart.. and it goes a little strange at some speeds (around 100km/h is bad) and the car shifts pretty wacky. |
