Manual is the guy who kicks Otto Matic’s ass.
Damn right! I haven’t had an automatic since the early 80s. I hope never to again. But, it is hard to find manual in many cars. The new 6-speed or more automatics are pretty good, but let me control and decide…especially in the winter. Also, a little dynamic downshifting and it saves on the brakes too and again is great for snow driving.
The loaner I am driving ( a brand new Jetta Se - amazing what Enterprise offers) is an auto and I don’t know what to do with my left foot/leg!
