that third pedal on the left is used to pump oil into the engine so that you can go faster.

Driving an automatic is NOT driving. At all.

American here. I went out to buy a car and there was a really good deal on a beautiful car that needed a clutch and was manual. Had never driven manual.

2 months down the road and my eyes are OPEN. I'm never going back to automatic. Also if I see a nice sports car and it's automatic I can't help but laugh at the waste of car.

If you can't drive manual, you CAN'T DRIVE.

Think it's funny when people are impressed by burnouts btw. Like literally any manual car and you can sit in a burnout til your tires are fucked and beyond.

Exactly. Manuals are just for tryhard faggots to do burnouts and rev all day long with their shitty 3" exhausts because SOMEHOW in their heads that's 'cool' and 'manly'. Outside of a worksite, 4wding and race car driving, manuals are a pointless dick wagging showoff dinosaur waste of time and evergy, not to mention an unnecessary distraction while driving.

This is coming from a lifelong manual driver who just can't be fucked pretending like it's any good any more.

Unless you've failed to maintain your brakes, the limiting factor in stopping distance is tire traction, it has nothing to do with the engine.

LMAOOOOOO

"MY CAR CAN PARK ITSELF"

I would never, in a million years, buy a car with that feature, or having bought one USE that feature, or having used it ADMIT to it.

Dumbasses can't parallel park. Give me 4 inches extra and I can get my car in a given space.

1. Pull past the spot
2. Turn wheel right
3. Reverse until almost touching curb
4. Correct steering to straighten out and continue backing
5. When out of space go straight forward toward the other car
6. If you're close enough to the curb park. If not then turn the wheels to the right reverse correct steering and repeat 5.

SO EASY A FUCKING COMPUTER CAN DO IT.

There are some maneuvers you cannot even do in an automatic!!!

Drifting
"Doughnuts"
Burning out
Engine braking
Boosting
Overrevving for additional acceleration
Underrevving for additional economy
Not relying on a hit/miss robot to shift for you!!!

You're probably a Redneck, more of them drive stick.

The difference is that where "most" you know drive manual, nearly all UK drivers passed their test on manual.

You must drive manual in the test to get a manual license, if you use an auto you can only drive auto. About the only people who take the test in auto in the UK are the physically disabled and the extremely incompetent (mostly women).

I don't know anyone with an auto license.

An Auto box will always be in economy mode. (unless you have/use power button / gearbox adjustments)

Drifting and burnouts in general can be hard on any box. There is nothing wrong with presetting 2nd gear and using more rps (Withing limits) or engine breaking. Most large sedans have a 'power' button that does just this, mainly for towing.

Fucking assisted drive features are bullshit. My car doesn't "do" anything driving-wise. I am the fucking driver. I don't need the car to shift fucking gears for me. I don't need it to park itself. I don't need it to stop itself if I come close to an obstacle. I don't need an alarm to warn me while backing!

My only regret with my car, which you would describe as a feature, is it has ABS. A complete utter waste for people that know how to brake properly.

The three biggest obstacles keeping drivers from getting a feel of the road and the ability to drive properly are ABS, automatic teansmissions, and power steering. Although I understand power steering as it is easier to implement power steering than to properly build the car so that it's not needed.

No, you fucking can't. Either you misunderstood several of the things I said, or you have 15+K to spend pointlessly on a luxury sports car that has several different computer systems integrated to achieve the effects possible on even a very old manual that doesn't have an on-board computer.

>Overrevving for additional acceleration
>Preselector again

I interpreted him as meaning from a standing start. Not sure about sports autos but the one I had wouldn't rev high enough for maximum acceleration from a standing start unless you revved it up with your foot on the brake.

Most of the disadvantages people list can be overcome by understanding your box but I'd still take a manual any day.

The thing I liked about the auto I had was that you could do about 60 mph in reverse.

Bloodline rule, with the parents' advice and the people's input, is most ideal. The fact that they're not going to lose power for any reason takes the politics out of government, education, and dealing with foreign powers. No hidden motives behind their actions. No shady deals and seemingly pointless actions taking place because some superPAC promised to help them get re-elected.

That depends on who you ask.

I my country (Norway), there is no "Americas". There is only Amerika. Sure, you can sub divide it into Nord-Amerika, Mellom-Amerika (the middle) and Sør-Amerika, but the continent is Amerika.

I suspect this holds true in a great many countries.

It would make a lot of sense that muricans are trying to seperate themselves from the rest of America and claim the "America" word for themselves, since they've misused it for so long.

But anyway, bottom line: Europe is not a country, and neither is America.

>My only regret with my car, which you would describe as a feature, is it has ABS. A complete utter waste for people that know how to brake properly.

ABS nearly killed me back in the 90s. I was braking quite hard on a downward slope that had some gravel scattered on it. Fully expecting to lose some traction however, ABS got confused and thought I was on ice, "tick tick tick tick tick", overshot the junction (60mph limit, single track road) and luckily nothing was coming. Pretty scary experience.

Open your fuse box and pull the ABS fuse Anon, it disables the ABS.

We don't need to try, we already have. Tell a Canadian that he's an American and see what happens.

Correct.

Incorrect. It's understood to refer to the United States of America.
>>
>>606250733
Actually in English, no matter what region, America is generally understood as short for "United States of America". "American" generally refers to someone or something from the US. What you call Amerika, we call "the Americas", because we divide North America and South America into separate continents. Just thought I'd help you out.

>>606249402

All my cars have had ABS and I have a couple friends without it.

I'm the best driver among us, so I always drive whoever I'm with. People like my driving.

So used to my ABS blinders, I skid like fucking crazy at first without ABS, then after awhile I remember how to brake. It's a little embarrassing.

People braking hard, or braking too much in turns. If only they could see their ABS going NOPENOPENOPENOPE

a traditional automatic can do anything on that list other than the last one. though a manual can do a couple of them better

Definition of America in English:
1A land mass of the western hemisphere consisting of the continents of North and South America joined by the Isthmus of Panama.

>1.1Used as a name for the United States.

http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/America

In English we sometimes use the same word to mean different things. We generally expect the person we are communicating with to be familiar with context.

They normally are if English is their mother tongue.

Correcting native speakers of a language foreign to you will seldom end well.

but he's correct on the first two

[good] automatics shift faster than you ever will, they continue to transfer power mid shift, the power loss is trivial now and easily made up through other benefits, they're stronger and they generally do get better mpg because despite loss of power to the torque converter when not locked up, they're better at being in the most economical gear than you too.

as for perfect shifts, well im not sure what the perfect shift would even be, they shift reliably and predictably

the single, solitary, only advantage a manual has over a semi-manual or traditional planetary automatic in this day and age, is simple fun factor

either, or usually both, of the other types have beat out the regular old manual in every other way. Strength, economy, shift speed, control, whatever, it's been outdone.

Itt: People don't realize almost every single Drag car is an Auto.
It's called a trans brake, Its about the only way to build boost in a forced induction car off the line.
It's not only a faster shift, its more fluid. But mainly it is 'consistent'.
Just look at the Veyron or a Brabus, consumer level manuals can't handle 600hp+
There is zero advantage to a manual besides throwing a P-plate on the car and slamming second gear as you leave McDonalds.
Until you reach actual race level machines, the manual / auto debate is redundant.

Motherfucker, I drove a '67 alfa romeo with a blown clutch, shot synchromesh, and a busted guibo (the fitting that aligns the transmission to the gearbox). It was practically undrivable. You had to shift it by getting the rpm's just right while winding them up to momentarily align the guibo, and then just gingerly feel those fucking gear walk from one gear into the next, & dip the gas for a sec to let em slide in and punch it to catch up to the torque. After years of this, I got so good at it I could shift fast and smooth as dolphins fuck without even using the clutch. It's theft proof. No one would get past the end of the block if they tried to steal it before crashing it into something.

So when I bought a second car for a commuter, I wanted something 1, 2, & 3, reliable as a battleship, 4, comfortable and 5, mindless to operate. It's a fucking 4runner limited, automagic.

It's so fucking nice I never even drive the Alfa anymore.

To everyone else in the world, including all other americans, we look like the egotistical nutjobs every time our idiotic politicians refer to United Statesians as "All Americans", because there are about 75 other countries full of people who are also americans to whom our particular brand of bullshit does not apply.

Even though we try to make it apply via claiming the entire hemisphere as ours with the insane Monroe Doctrine that'll lead directly to us getting our asses nuked to fucking smithereens in the inevitable WWIII.
