Automatic or manual?
automatic, but i can drive manual.... i learned in my dad's 99 camaro...
when i get my dream car (or if actually...) it WILL be manual.. there are just so many reasons to get manual over automatic, unless it's just some get to work and back car...
easier to work on, less expensive on transmission repairs/building, less to go wrong with it, can pull more torque and power out of it....
it also never hurts to know how to drive a manual..... i mean if shit happens and you only know automatic, you might be screwed... not everyone who can drive a manual can drive a stick..... but everyone who can drive a stick can drive a manual....
it's never a bad thing ot learn....
the only thing that throws me off is clutches... i really hate that part.... cuz like i said i learned in my dad's car, that was new and powerful.... then me and the wife go to a friends one day and soem more people show up and everyone decided to go to another person's house.. some guy htere that owned a manual truck wanted to ride in the car with everyone else (they were all catching up, not my friends lol) and i was the only one that even knew how to drive a stick... i get in the truck and kill it 3 times....
see, if i'd of 'popped' teh clutch in my dad's car, we'd of hit 40 in about 20 yards... but for this shitty truck, you HAD to pop the clutch, or it'd just die...
i felt stupid... REALLY stupid.... cuz i wasn't kidding, i did know how, he just never warned me his clutch was fucked up, til he was in the truck and we were driving there.... (hell lol... someone who didn't know how to drive it wouldn't of even gotten it started, much less got it to back outta the drive way... for those who may not know, it's not just turning a key
)
