Re: Auto Or Manual?

MANUAL!!! I've had two cars and this is my first ute and all of em have been manual! thats one of the major attractions with my ute was that it was manual, when i was looking for a ute they were bloody rare so i'm soooo stoked i got my baby! I just refuse to buy an auto!!!

Re: Auto Or Manual?

I've always driven manuals but recently got an Auto tiptronic so I can still pretend that I drive a manual every now and then. It's great for city driving and long distance trips, no effort involved whatsoever!!!

Re: Auto Or Manual?

Wanted a manual but the bastards wont option a twin plate clutch no more so they only rate the rtv at about 1400kilo's towin with a manual, so got the auto that warrentte'd to 2300kilo's
Might be a sequential shifter but it still dont have a clutch pedal

Re: Auto Or Manual?

learnt to drive in a manual, drove manual for 2 years, got my L's only ever drove a manual, got my hilux which is a manual...
ive never actually really driven a auto...seriously i think it would put me to sleep. fair enough it may make driving easier but i dont really want that. i love driving because its a mental and physical activity.
