kanski Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 parang ang labo naman ng rason na mas madaling itulak for not picking an automatic. that's planning for the unexpected to the extreme. it's like saying that you won't get on a plane bec. it might crash. wouldn't want to live my life that way. back to cars, i don't plan on letting my car go so unmaintained that i'll have to worry about it breaking down on me. the only way that my car has not started over the past 15 years is when the battery died out. it's quite easy to have another one bought and or delivered. imo. however, the argument on fuel economy as a negative for automatics is spot on. in my experience, your choice of a m/t or an a/t could result in as much as a 1km/liter difference in the favor of the manual tranny, of course. lastly, prices of cars with m/t are cheaper. and that's always a good thing if you ask me. as to my choice, i like both. for everyday driving, like a lot of people here, the ease and comfort of an automatic can't be beat. but on the occassions that i want to let my inner raceboi out, nothing beats a manual. unfortunately for me, the only manual transmission vehicle i have right now is a diesel engined innova. pathetic i know.

At first I tought it's a manual car that you have... but at the end I'm surprised that it's a manual innova lang pala.. hehehe! peace! Quote Link to comment
mackyboy Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Mahirap nga lang kapag driving downhill kagaya ng Baguio pudpod brakes mo sa automatic. I haven't tried driving an automatic. Pero yung "2" and "1" (or "L") sa shift para sa downhill driving yun right? Quote Link to comment
SNAKE05 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Mas mabilis talaga maubos ang brake ng matic compare to a manual reg diyan sa pag baba sa baguio gamitin ninyo nalang yan brake nayan MAS mura yan kaysa ang transmission ninyo ang masira i just replace my brake on my d max dito sa suki kong service center hindi na casa it cost me 1100 on the pads and 500 on the labor and one year ulit yan bago maubos mura nayan nakakapag MP nga yung iba diyan ng once a week yan pa once a year lang. If you cant maintain a car dont use your car semple lang yan parang anak mo yan magastos din yan alagaan. :mtc: Quote Link to comment
sopeso Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Of coarse manu pa rin though I have both matic tucs and old school mazda pickS, but still my preference is of manu trans simply because it's sort of a real thing in driving!? Quote Link to comment
infoseeker Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 For me, automatic nakakapagod manual laging traffic. Pero prefer ko manual pag byahe ng province, mas makakadiskarte ka sa overtake. Quote Link to comment
jazon7099 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 automatic. same responsedn lng with manual. nasa diskarte lng yan. Quote Link to comment
johnrelova Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 from past experience... i will never buy a car with automatic trans... minalas ako when i did it. i regret doing it. laging may problema sa transmission noon yung kotse ko. from then on, laging manual na lang. u really feel like u r in control kapag manual kasi eh.
