Well, do you drive a manual transmission or do you drive an auto?
I added two extra option - If you drive a 6-speed manual (oh so nice), and if you don't know how to drive stick but you want to learn.

I drive an Automatic...
I special ordered my last two trucks from the factory...
My first was a stick (which gets better mileage, and maintains cheaper)
BUT...
The truck was difficult to re-sell
So with the new truck, I ordered the automatic

we have 3 vehicles, 2 are auto and 1 is manual, I prefer auto, shifting is a pain in the ass especially in rush hour.

agreed, I hate that. Its awesome on a Sunday when no cars are around taking turns at 80mph. Also, you more control of you car IMO. Better for snow driving. It does suck real bad in bumper to bumper traffic. Originally Posted by Robert DiMaggio

I drive a manual. As soon as I bought the car, I was in stop in go traffic on the dreaded 405 freeway. One of the worst freeways in America.

I haven't had a car for 6 years.
I do drive a Honda motorcycle, though. Oh yeah, manual.....Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

My current vehicle is an automatic, but I know how to drive a stick. I've driven a 6-speed Vectra when I was in Spain. Even at 140-150 kph that car handled perfectly.

Manual Honda Civic
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
