Lets see....... whyyyyyy do we think stick shifts are better??....
better fuel economy, no stupid electronic shiting crap to deal with...
far more forgiving if its low on fluid... doesn't have a POS overdrive
unit that likes to fail, doesnt have POS solenoids to fail.... manual
transmissions dont have VALVE BODIES!! (grumble) - you are in the gear
you want when you want it.... don't have the transmission going: "uh
lemme see what gear I wanna be in this time" BS that you get with the
automatics... you can get far far more miles out of a stick shift before
it needs a major overhaul - like far more than only 68k miles!!!!
Mmm yes we're still a little pissed off over recent developments....
mmkay?
sonabichin friggin Chrysler Automatics....
