Spent a couple of weeks with an auto recently. They are so utterly terrible.
Teach me how to drive stick
>>538334453its not some magical unknowing devicetakes a day to learn and your granny did in a worse car and had to double clutch>>538334542there's different types of autos, what car did you drive?
>>538334628>there's different types of autosWow. Thanks.>what car did you drive?Owned a 3 series with the ZF 8 speed for a few years. Usually pretty good, but it still gets confused sometimes. Also makes driving incredibly boring. Among other negatives.
>>538334453I always thought that was to sit in it and spin
>>538334453>I drive a stick over an automatic because I like to feel the performance of the engine, ok?Most euro threads can be summed up as envy
>>538334756autos are pretty shit at hills, especially a steep hill coming down to a roundabout when i don't want to be in 5th gear but i can pop the stick over to manual and use flappy paddles and bring it down
>>538334453Nicw pic, you burn your clutch yet?
>>538334614I've got a stick right here for you BB. Post bobs.
>>538334453i can drive a stickshift, but fuck that shit. got me an automatic and I aint never going back. i hate to say it, but burgers were right (for once)
>>538334857I pity you. Not being able to enjoy the feeling of actually driving the car must be so hollow. You just get in your cuckbox and stomp on the gas huh? Like a child driving around in his toy car.
>>538334542Yep. Years back took a test spin in a suburu brz and tried both. The automatic wasn't the same car even with the quick shifter. Not even close.
>>538334453People stealing cars in the US are like Vin Diesel very familiar with stick shift.
>>538334895The best auto boxes in Europe are surely the BMW ZF and the VW DSG. PDK is supposedly excellent but most people can't afford a porsche. I find that all other autos hold the gears for too long, or not long enough, or kick down unnecessarily, if for example you want to accelrate from 70 to 75 on a motorway for example. Usually worse on fuel, too.>>538335128They are so boring. The average person can't tell. But if you care about driving they just disgust you.
>>538334453>AmericanYou mean niggers.
>>538335007I prefer stick but the plucky attitude of people who use them like OP is fucking ridiculous. Stick shift helps keep you engaged and makes you feel like you're doing something but otherwise it has no advantages for a regular driver
