Manual > Automatic.

And despite what some people say, a clutch-less manual is not an adequate substitute.

Learning isn't difficult it's just a matter of repetition. My old roommate showed me how to drive his Honda and I learned how to drive a motorcyle lastyear. Just practice

Are those cars not Automatic?

Yes, i know. You lose power through the torque con­verter. There are even torque converter clutches now to eliminate heat and increase efficiencynarrowing the gap.

On the other hand: If you're dealing with forced induction, there is a loss of boost between the manual change of gears, unless you want to"powershift" the car. Say goodbye to your clutch, then.

ive always wondered isnt manual better for stop and go seeing as you burn less gas in neutral? wait you do burn less gas in neutral don't you?

 

[parada45]

Stick shift is hard

 

[jackel56]

auto

 

[soltheman]

Manual.

Better in the long run.

Get caught with no battery? It's all good, just roll it down a hill and pop the clutch.
