I love manuals because they’re fun. Never owned an automatic. Sometimes my commute has me thinking an automatic might be nice, though. All that clutching gets old in stop and go traffic.
Your post — after my own heart!!! YES!!!
Thanks.
My car has 255,000 miles and is still lots of fun to drive. Front suspension is finally starting to loosen up. May be original. I’ve had the car for 120,000 miles. Last week I had a serpentine belt installed. At $90, I think it was the biggest repair I’ve had to do besides tires and battery.
I need to decide whether to put money into suspension or run it to ground
Yesterday, for the first time in years, I would have liked an automatic. I-95 was closed for an accident. 3 hours 40 minutes to drive 32 miles. At one point, I shoved it into 3rd for the first time in over 2 hours.
