i dont GET it......

Me owning auto = 7 years

Amount of time it took me to learn to move the selector from "D" to "2" and "1" = 5 seconds

Dont want the auto to SHIFT_foryou, well.. SHIFT_itbyyourself. If you cant handle moving a level, how the hell are you guys going to manage to balance the gas/clutch/gear selector AND possibly brake all at the same time?

Come now.. the point of this thread ISNT me preaching that autos are great, because they are not. Auto's are decent if you're still learning to drive and want to thrash something around UNTIL you gather all your parts, time, money, skill.. whatever you need in order to swap to manual. EVEN AFTER I acquired all the parts, I waited for the auto to die before swapping.. why? Because it ISNT un-liveable.. and its not as bad as some of you guys make it out to be.

Just drive the damn thing hard till it explodes.. thats the way I see it.
