I think all you stick-shifter headed guys have got it all wrong. Its not
that we who prefer automatics like having a big tub of pressurized oil
shifting the gears for us, its that we like NOT having to clutch
continously! ( some of us at least) So as Carl wrote:

>>In the same issue, there was an article on the Ferrari F355 paddle
shifters. Nice, but >>guess what? They're STILL manuals, not automatics.
They don't use a clutch, but they >>also don't use hydraulic fluid stuff
like the autos.

Who cares if "Its still a MANUAL" Ghast! I don't give a %@&*$%# if it
runs on ozone or peanut butter if it lasts and I can cruise along and shift
gears bang, bang with the push of a button I'm all for it. When can I get
one in my Dak
