Manual is much more fun wish the Deuce was a stick

 

Manual is great. I've DD my Honda for what, 4-5 years now and I love it. Granted in high traffic, stop and go it gets to be a PITA sometimes, but there's something about a manual... Every time I drive another car my arm finds its way to the shifter even if it's an automatic.

 

I love driving a stick shift. I've owned one and daily drove one, and often time I miss it...It never got old to me and I love when I get the chance to drive one now.

 

LoL `John, I think it's the need to control your machine...To be in charge of your gears to get the best performance....& sometimes for some (for improved MPG's)....

To be in control & Shift @ Red LINE...in every gear :thum bsup:

 

Now now Space I didn't say I changed the gears in an automatic (learned that lesson with my puny 4t60e transmission), but I sure want to shift it lol

 

I've daily driven a stick for 7yrs now and love every second of it. If I had tons of Monte I would male turbo Monte a rear wheel drive car with a manual trans.... <----- my dream

 

Hi `John,
I hope your dream comes true & that you can get a Male Turbo Monte with a Rear Driver & with a Big Stick Shift

LOL `John, sorry I couldn't resist LOL...I also would love to see a FWD converted to a RWD with a Good 6 six trans & a low geared posi (WoW) That is a great dream

p.s. I heard the ST have a super 6 spd manual trans How do you like yours ? p.s. did you have Space make your post..It sure looks like one of his "Ton's of Monte's (lol) (I wish I had the tons of Money U put in2 your SuperTurbo Monte 4-Sure)

 

A few cars ago I had a 1998 Dodge Neon R/T. It was a manual with a short-throw shifter. Really a blast to drive. Something about a manual makes you feel more in control of the car. As other members have stated though, if you drive in the city with a lot of stop-and-go, it's not ideal. Constantly clutching gets really old! Despite that, I would recommend everyone owns a manual at least once in their lifetime!

 

My dad has always told me that sticks are a ton of fun an there is really nothing bad about driving one other then first starting out. He has said that they get old pretty quick when it's a daily driver especially when you are in traffic. However I have hear a ton of people say that they never get old an that it's just a lot more fun to drive. My next car will be a stick. I'm thinking of going with a 2005-2006 Pontiac GTO or a 2010-2012 challenger if they drop in price. The 2005-2006 GTO comes standard with the 6.0L and you can get it with a 6 speed. And if I get the Challenger, it will have to be the 392 hemi with the 6 speed haha.

 

Thanks for the input, members.
