I've been driving manual cars for years (Both of my cars are manual, DMC 6239 and '01 Bullitt Mustang 435) and when I get in an automatic, I'm constantly uncomfortable with the lack of control. I find automatics to be erratic in their shifting - or maybe I'm just a control freak. I can see how it might be beneficial in a parade setting though - which is like gridlock traffic, but even though I live in Atlanta and experience traffic constantly, I never have gotten tired of shifting over auto. ________________________________ From: cbl1739 <cbl302@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sat, April 17, 2010 12:53:10 PM Subject: [DML] Re: Auto vs Manual It really has to do with the fact that the majority of the population drive/prefer automatics.. ------------------------------------ To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnewsYahoo!
