In California your right hand is usually too busy giving other drivers "the bird" to be constantly shifting gears and such.  Idiot jagoff drivers need their automatics.

Drive automatic: Its like the car its driving itself.. Freaking scary.. Feels like you have no control!

So says my brother.. (but then again, he drives like a maniac.. When he gave me a ride to school he went up to 180 on a 90km/h road.. LOL..)

My dad\'s Chevy is a automatic, and my bro doesnt like it..
He has always had a manual transmission.. (in his BMWs..)

I think driving with a "stick" is rather easy.. When you learn how to drive with it.. ;)

The only hard part is starting it up in first gear and getting the movements down.  Believe it or not my beetle sounds ****in powerful and sounds so good chaning between the gears.
