As long as there are lightning storms there will be blackouts.

When I was a kid back in the 60a I loved to shift gears manually but even back then I would have taken the automaitic if it performed better and according to “Car and Driver” magazine they do.

I guess manual transmissions really will go by the way.

In the 60’s I had Chevy Powerglide automatics. They were 2 speeds.

As long as there are squirrels and transformers, there will be blackouts!

After 100K an automatic transmission is a ticking $3,000 repair time bomb. A new clutch OTH is $400.00.
