I keep my manual thank you.... Posted by MisplacedYankee [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Stick v Auto-Money Magazine's take, John Mc, Fri, 20 Dec 2002 18:03:17 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I like this quote: "Then there are those hazards caused by the average person's limited number of arms. Between changing CDs, answering the cell phone, drinking coffee and gesturing out the window at "that moron," do you really need something else that occupies one hand and a leg?"
I think the better point is FOR the manual transmission which will discourage talking on the phone etc. because you have to shift. I know I will get on my cell phone much more in the automatic than the stick. I was forced to put the handsfree system in my Saab because there was no way to talk shift and steer.
I really hope the manual transmission never goes away. I fear that it will be replaced by those stupid manumatics. I had a tiptronic in my Audi and there is no way that thing could compete with a standard 5 or 6 speed for fun.
