I have both an automatic and a manual. I do prefer the stick shift, but I drive the automatic more.
I have a wicked "clutch foot" though and have to keep it tucked away when I'm driving my automatic, because any pedal my left foot touches gets shoved to the floor. Not so good when the only pedal is the brake. (I've been known to forget I'm driving an automatic)
happiestmferoutthere Reviewed by happiestmferoutthere on . Automatic or manual? Simple poll. Do you drive an automatic or manual? I drive a manual and love it. I'm definitely sticking with manual with every car I get. It's just more fun to drive and you have a lot more control. Automatics are just too easy to drive. I catch myself looking for the clutch whenever I have to drive a friends car when they get too drunk to drive and I didn't take my car. Another quick question. Do you all think driving a manual makes you a better driver? Rating: 5
