I like both for different reasons because I live in a medium sized city. when I want to blast my shit and go nuts I like manual but when I want to go to work and not really think about shit, I take my ancient toyota that can last forever to events or as stated (work) or whatever.. wake up nigga

Stick shift is a very outdated form of driving. It's very unsafe. If something dangerous happens on road most stick shift users will end up hurt because their mind goes blank when they panic.

>>35159395

Impirically false.

>>35159509
it is stupid. anyone who lives in a city and chose stick over automatic is just a fucking moron. i'm sure they love shifting in traffic jams.

>While most europeans drive with stick
The stick shift actually makes you exploit the car's strenght at its best in situational cases, also makes you dose the most efficient amount of fuel, always if you think while driving.

>>35160020
the fuel thing is not an argument anymore, computers are better than humans now at switching gears for fuel efficiency.

>>35160020
every newer automatic transmission is orders of magnitude more efficient than any human could be.

One main thing stick is good for is towing, tho maybe autos will get better, 18 wheelers more and more auto

>>35159948
>have you even driven a modern car? almost all of them have a way to shift gears, even my fucking mothers station wagon has paddles

>pop start car if battery is low
>if you need to slow down quick you can put some strain on the clutch and downshift

But there are drawbacks too
>rolling back on hills sucks
>can stall in the middle of an intersection if you forget how to clutch
>an old clutch can start slipping on you to the point of transmission failure (only if you dont replace it long after it starts to slip though)

Its a cheaper transmission system to maintain though and often the cars are sold cheaper because there are less buyers
Plus its a good way to keep your hands busy while driving and not passively drifting off (highways will always have that issue)

Why would I ever want a manual if the only thing I use my car for is to go to work and run errands? Driving isn't fun. A car is just a tool to get to point A to point B. You're not fucking drag racing. I'd rather just have a hand free to adjust my music or take a sip of coffee. I want to be as unengaged as possible from this chore of driving so I don't have to think about doing it when I'd rather just be at home.

>Why would I ever want a manual if the only thing I use my car for is to go to work and run errands
Control, engagement, the experience, cheaper to repair and maintain. Only driving to work or running errands doesn't make these advantages irrelevant.
>Driving isn't fun
Your opinion. You don't need to have your head buried in a screen for something to be fun.
>You're not fucking drag racing
I'm also not retarded, which is why I don't associate changing gears manually with "drag racing".
>I'd rather just have a hand free to adjust my music or take a sip of coffee
Competent drivers can do so regardless of the transmission type. Changing gears only requires a quick flick of the arm, provided you're not an invalid. If you can't handle that, autotragics are perfect for the disabled and elderly.

Are you all just 16 year olds who just started driving or something? After a while, changing gears becomes second nature. I don't even notice that I'm doing it. Shifting in traffic isn't a chore and you can usually just cruise at the bottom end of second gear.

>>35159395

Retards of the year right here.

The new Camaro SS is a prime example of the Manual becoming obsolete. There's even a video on YouTube comparing a professional drag racer in a manual vs the a normal person in the automatic, and the professional didn't win a single time.

On top of this the automatic gets 1mpg better than the manual. It's faster, and more efficient. Manuals died in 2016, and there is no reason aside from personal autism to own a manual in the year 2017.

Well if you go down that road.

Although Automatic is more up to date it seduces the driver to more careless driving since he only has to do 3 instead of 5 operations at once, leaving the two other operations being filled with careless tasks such as using the telephone or putting make up on, Or giving your boyfriend a handjob.

He is right about that part, automatic gearboxes frequently shit themselves at around 100k miles if the gearbox oil isn't changed (many manufacturers claim they are "sealed for life" and don't need doing).

For some reason manual gearboxes don't break unless you really fuck with them. Clutches should last at least 150k miles but it depends how the previous owner treated it. My ancient BMW 328i is on 220k miles and still on the original clutch. Works perfectly, all the automatic ones have been replaced by now.

Yes, however almost everyone learns to drive in a manual so passes their test in a manual car. Obviously if you do this you can drive automatics too.

If you pass in an automatic you need to sit your test again in a manual car if you want to drive one. If you don't you are restricted to automatics. Automatic = 2 pedals so all these DSG / DCT etc cars are fine despite their owners claiming they drive a manual car.

>>35167896

Automatics feel like shit unless you're sitting on a lot of fucking horsepower and torque, if you legitimately want to be involved in your driving and see it as more than an appliance manual is a logical and fun choice.

Fuck that shit, I'm not paying shitloads of money for a little piece of plastic. Fucking jews, you didn't need a piece of paper just to ride a horse back in the day why the fuck do I need it to drive a car?

Also, why the fuck would you learn to drive an automatic but not manual? Once you learn manual there's literally no difference except that you don't have to shift gear. I blame it on lazy murifats.

It's not hard to drive you retard, what gets hard is when you get retarded fat driving inspectors who tell you to do one thing but mean the other or just do things 2 seconds before doing another thing. I'm not paying a shitton of money for some fat fuck to sit beside me and tell me how I drive and then fail me because of his retarded instructions.

Now fuck off you filthy jew, you're not getting anything from me.

>>35169772
god chill, i passed third time. second time i failed coming out of the test centre.

>>35169888
An automatic will cuck you and shift up at high RPM
Working the clutch means that you modulate the torque from the engine to the wheels using the clutch, this keeps you with a good amount of torque that you can use to get out of a ditch or something.
An LSD will also help this.
Think of it as rolling in an auto, no gas but you still move.
It's also useful for parking and creeping in traffic

>>35159118

>Ohhhhh eeeemmmm geeeeee how can you fail a driving test
Yeah, how can I fail a test that is supposed to drain money on miniscule mistakes made in a matter of seconds because of some fat lardass changing his mind every two seconds? Don't tell me that you drive like a perfect little goodie boy that obey the traffic rules to 100%, you'd just be lying to yourself.

Driving tests are meant to drain money out your pocket by having some perfectionist retard sitting next to you telling you that you'll have to re-do the driving test because you turned two degrees too much to the right while parking or some shit.

Either you're a retarded normalfag that cannot see through that bullshit or you're one of those kikes that work as a driving instructor/tutor. Fuck off either way.

>>35169830
I know man, these faggots do nothing but sit beside you and complain about a small thing. "wow I see you didn't look in the mirror like you're supposed to do 200 times each minute, failed ;-)". Fucking bullshit, if anything you should get paid to pass their shitty perfectionist tests.

Leave it in first, and use the clutch to roll.

I thought I preferred stick until I got an automatic.

My first car was a stick shift and it was great to me but then when my car finally got to the point of unusable and I actually tried an automatic, it was just so much better. It was effortless, it was so smooth.

I see absolutely no point in stick anymore personally, I just don't. The only valid argument I've seen thrown my way is it's just more fun to use a stick because you feel like a race car driver. Good for you if that's the case but I don't give a fuck about that after the novelty wore off 2 months into owning my first car. I just want a car that gets the job done and automatics are true to their name, it's just objectively more efficient to get things done.

It is incredibly difficult and complicated. Like walking - you have to lift obe leg, shift your weigh, push forward, put the leg forward, over and over.

Some people enjoy driving manual, why does that upset you so much?

>>35170121
It's not that fucking hard
I don't understand the issue
Shift up at like 3k
clutch in shift to Nuetral on stopping
1st then move when moving
on the highway rev up and shift to overdrive for cruising
You don't need to rev math or heel toe if you don't want to, and you'll be just as slow as an automatic.
manuals are cheaper to run and better in the snow

And have a garbage power band because the tranny will always cuck you
And constantly have to ride your brakes
And have to take corners slow as fuck because you can't down shift

and have much higher maintenance costs

lel, I worked for roughly 4 years of my young adult life, grinding away at part-time jobs at big-name companies for that sweet, sweet CV credit, enrolled to a University for an engineering degree and am now, while still in school at 23 years of age, a team foreman in a multi-million company. Basically I get to sit in front of a computer and hand out work and manage inventory from a screen in a nice office.

All because I decided not to be some basement-dwelling weeb autist with no communication-skills or motivation. So yeah, call me a normie wageslave, at least I have my own car, own life, own gf and more money than they give out at the neet-support-office.

Won't get a job, no GF (kissless virgin), no money, relies on other people for pretty simple stuff on life because he has no motivation to figure things out for himself or lacks the self-confidence to find out. Sitting in a one-bedroom apartment eating processed foods and watching cartoons and playing video games is better than what everyone else in our friend-circles are doing; partying, driving cars for fun, drinking, women, social contacts and hobbies, living in something else than a small shithole.

Even this buddy managed to get a license and drives stick, altough only when he can afford to put fuel in his shitbox.

Hypermilers still choose manual gearboxes over slushboxes for a good reason.
With a manual gearbox you can accelerate with WOT in low rpm for maximum efficiency.
If you know what you are doing you get better mpg with a manual.

Nope, you choose a speed and keep it.

Yea sure if you live in a big city then having a car can be an inconvenience. That's pretty much the only reasonable situation to not have a license.

People WILL think less of you if you don't have a license over the age of 18. That's just the way it is.

There's no reason to not have one.

It's ridiculously easy to drive stick in a city if you're not a complete fucking retard. People always make it sound so much harder than it actually is. It becomes second nature pretty quickly if, again, you aren't completely retarded.

>It can be more efficient than coasting in gear if you shut down the engine while coasting doown a hill.
>coasting down a hill with your engine off and nothing driving the brake pump or PAS pump

Wew.

For what it's worth, when you are rolling down a hill (in cars with fuel injection) in gear and with the throttle closed, the ECU will not inject any fuel into the cylinders until the engine speed is at idle.

>>35172014
Indeed, but that slows the car down, wich means you have to accelerate later.

>>35172073

Not if you're going downhill, which is the whole point.

Autotragics. Not even once.

>>35172112
That depends on the angle of the hill you are driving down...

>>35159118
You are a idiot, more fun to drive and it rots your brain cells less.
>muh luxury
You are lazy.
>who are you quoting?
You.

>>35172227
Automatics are decent if you have 250 horses and DSG.
Otherwise they are solely for lazy meritards and people beyond their 50s.

>>35159395
Driving yourself is very unsafe and outdated. Driving should be left to profssionals.

>>35172374
Driving is very unsafe and outdated.
You should just walk.

>>35172416
Walking is very unsafe and outdated. You should just kill yourself. It's better for the environment.

>>35172470
Killing yourself is very unsafe and outdated.
You should just drive your D'Lorean into the past and prevent your own procreation.

>fuck off cars are way funner and more efficent than motorcycles

Funner is a matter of taste, but even high performance motorcycles can still get 30+ mpg

>>35165331

>funner

am I being trolled here?

Why do we have to argue about this? Just get the kind you like the most. I use automatic because it's less tedious to use for me. Most of the time when I get in the car it's because I have to go do something that I'd really rather not do, so I'm already not in the best of moods because of that. If I have to manually shift on the way there I'd be more annoyed with it all. Manuals just don't suit me because I'm not the sort of person who enjoys driving and I never go out to drive around just for fun.

>>35173232
Can't you just let me be autotistic about it?

My old Buick shat the bed over the summer. Was my college car, finally rusted out to the point where even the guy who sold it to me wouldn't let it pass inspection. Went out shopping and took home a 2006 hatchback Impreza (non-turbo'd, couldn't afford it ;_;) with a manual tranny. Learned to drive it over the course of the week. Never looked back. Automatics are just so incredibly dull to drive now.

then my sister got me driving gloves because she knows I loved Drive, and now my secret shame is driving around late at night wearing them and listening to synthwave CDs that I burned for myself

I've also got a eurobeat disc that I sometimes do risky things while listening to

I know how to drive stick, but I don't because it's a pain in the ass in heavy traffic, i.e. 90% of my driving.

>>35159436
>I think its actually safer because you actually need to think about what you're doing. You cant just press the go pedal and shut off your mind.

If you have to think about driving stick, you either haven't been doing it for long, or you're just a terrible driver. After a pretty short amount of time, it becomes just as mindless as driving automatic.

>Putting the engine into idle isn't more efficient than running it
what

>>35173672
I sometimes drive over 150mph blasing eurobeat during the night
in a 6-speed manual

>>35159818
>more durable
True, but not that relevant. Both types are durable enough to last the lifetime of most vehicles.
>longer lasting
This is the same thing as more durable
>cheaper
Very slightly. But balanced out by poor availability. Unless you're buying a very cheap car, or a sports car, good luck finding one with a manual.
>more fun
Completely subjective, and not always relevant. Not everyone drives for fun.
>aesthetic
Also completely subjective, and not really relevant because the selector on an automatic can look exactly like a manual gearshift.
>more control
Paddle shifters
>engine breaking
Paddle shifters
>a million other pros
Please, continue to list them and I'll continue shooting them down.

reminder that motorcycles are the one and only noteworthy wheeled vehicle

>>35173846
If you want to drive for fun, I absolutely agree with you.

As far as usefulness goes, they suck ass.

>>35173794
my speedometer tops out at 120, no idea about the governor limit. Only ever pushed it to 110. Still, it's far more thrilling to drive a slow car fast than to drive a fast car slow.

>>35173787
Most post-1990 ECUs will actually shut off fuel flow to the injectors when coasting in gear.

I know what you mean, sometimes I drive pic related well beyond 110mph(speedometer tops out at 170km/h) blasting eurobeat

>>35173916
Yep, deceleration fuel cutoff

>>35174016
truly the best feeling. eurobeat for highways and backroads, and synthwave for the cities.

>>35173839
>muh paddle shifters
that's closer to manual than automatic transmission, very few automatic cars have them.
and the rest you said is pretty much
>reeee how dare you enjoy things!!!

>>35174064
eurobeaut in the city would be way to dangerous...

>>35174077
>very few automatic cars have them.

Almost all new automatics have paddle shifters these days.

>and the rest you said is pretty much reeee how dare you enjoy things!!!

No, the rest I said is don't make subjective arguments and claim they're objective.

>>35174131
>new automatics

I'll definitely be able to buy a 320i next month thanks to the magic of NEETbux!

>>35174240
Sorry you're so poor and have to drive around in an outdated shitbox all the time. Maybe you should get a real grownup job.

>>35174268
You do realise this is /r9k/ and not /o/, right?

>>35174279
Yeah, I know where I am.

>>35174332
Well, then you should know that your comment was inappropriate. I've reported you to the proper authorities, so please stay where you are and await their arrival.

>>35174423
Oh no, the internet police will be after me, whatever will I do.

>>35174512
You will wait where you are and follow their instructions when they arrive! You need to take this more seriously!

>>engine breaking
>Paddle shifters

90% of cars with paddles will reject shifts, or shift for you anyway at high or low rpm. Also, only cars with a an electronically controlled manual transmission will engine brake like a normal manual. While you can engine brake with an automatic, it is much less effective due to the torque converter between the engine and trans.

how in the fuck are any of those wrong? especially the games they make much much much better games

that's fucking stupid i hate automatics that try to look like manuals they should just have a shiftier next to the wheel

you have much more control and awareness in a manual
