Manual or Automatic car

I actually liked my other truck that had a manual 5-speed in it. I have a chevy blazer now, that has an automatic in it, though, and I really like it too. I have a physical handicap now, and the automatic makes driving a lot easier for me than the manual transmission did, but I miss going through the gears in that 5-speed sometimes though...

Hi. I learned how to drive on a manual, But i prefer a automatic. Here is one experiecne i had drivng a manual, that changed my mind on driving one. When i was younger, I had a boyfriend, that had a car and it was manual, he left me take it for the day, so of course off i went with it. I thought i was doing really good with it. I brought the car back to him, and never knowing till years later i blew the clutch. He had to put a new one in. After he told me, i never drove and manual again. I keep to my automatic. I did try the manual at times again, but i always found they were not for me when you came to a hill and had to stop, then get back going again.

Automatic. Less effort in driving.

i used to drive manual or stick shift transmission. that's what i've been driving ever since when i started even when i am still practicing driving. some will go to the manual transmission since there are only two pedals: the accelerator and the brake pedal. what i like about the manual or stick shift transmission is the way i put it on the 5th gear, it feels so cool LOL!

I have an automatic. I chose it for a couple reasons. One, I never learned how to drive a standard. That could be easily remedied, but I already have a car I love (Ford Focus) and it's fairly new. So, I will stay with it for the time being. I also tend to be accident prone. I broke my ankle in three places at once one time from jumping on my friend's trampoline. To my understanding, you can't drive a standard with a broken ankle. So, I will keep to my little automatic.
