Then I would get one of those cars with all the controls on the steering wheel.

I have a bad left knee. Any Manual use will aggravate it in normal driving. Now I drive a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. This car has sold me on Hybrids forever and Hyundai/ Kia group particularly. My Sonata is the most comfortable car I have ever driven. It is built around driver comfort. And the fact...

And that is why I buy only Automatic Cars. I work in the Charlerston Area of SC. Aka we are gonna have 3 to 5 accidents today so hurry up and wait.

Last Tuesday. You didn't see the big Uhaul van driving down the street.

Oh trust me I have talked to plenty of Europeans who mean just that. And leave very very hateful comments for those who say they love Automatics more. It is a gut reaction sorry if you were offended.

You see my good chap I live in the rural countryside. Where Deer, Coyote, Wild Boar and Alligators can and do cross the road on the regular. Not paying attention to the road be it with a Manual or Automatic in my area would be just plain stupid. He poked the bear first. The Bear swiped back. ;)...

Those pesky climate change agreements many countries signed on to will ironically kill the manual transmissions.

Gradual is becoming rapid if you take a look at the upcoming car models. Even Automotive reporters are noting this in this years releases. Hybrids and Electrics will soon replace a lot of stuff on the road. Especially in the EU because of Climate Change agreements.

It has become lately that some people who love to drive manual cars are pushing well bullshit out on the internet. These are their main BS statements. 1: The Stick Shift is the Ultimate Theft deterrent. 2: Manuals are more fuel efficient than Automatic Transmissions 3: Manuals are faster for...
