    Actually, I think automatics were made for older people with arthritic knees.

    And installed due to demand and traffic congestion.....

    Can you explain why manual transmission driving was eliminated from driver's ed? You know, for the young drivers?

    Mostly stuff I built.
    Really easy solution to driving a manual in traffic.... if you know an area has congested traffic take a different route. Don't follow the rest of the sheep in the flock. Lived in Houston worked in Texas City for many years could count on one hand the number of traffic jams I have sat in. There is always a better way.

    Not when your job is located in a restricted access compound where all the accesses are backed up.

    3 -4 times a week waiting 1/2 hour or more to get in is normal.

    Leave for work earlier than the other sheep and work over time.

    Considering our rush hour is from 6am to 8am to get on base, I'll just deal with the AT.

    I also have to fly in helicopters and 3-5 times a year get catapulted off the end of an aircraft carrier at sea despite being a civilian over age 50.

    Still consider me a sheep?

    Now that I see the mentality of manual Tacoma owners, I understand these auto hate threads even more.


    Solution. Live in a dumpster on base. No traffic. Trade for manual. Win!

    Already have a manual for the light traffic days. If you had one like I do, you'd think your MT taco felt like stirring a box of rocks.
