Manual Or Automatic?

Manual. As much as possible, even the steering I would prefer manual.

 

I need to feel the machine, especially if overloaded and operating at the limit, gauges nearly red. If I floor the gas but acceleration is slow, am I too overheated? Are my valves about to melt? The manual shift will help me guess. If I shift gears and the gears grind, is my clutch worn? Is the oil too thin, too foamy, in the tranny/diffy? The manual shift will give me clues.

 

Machines talk to you. Especially in manual mode.

 

Automatics are for normal folks.
