I’ve been driving an automatic since I passed nearly a decade ago. In that time whenever I tell anyone I drive auto, it’s usually met with some level of derision. I think that attitude is changing, but I’m still kind of confused by it in the first place.
Why?
This answer hits the nail on the head.
Autos used to be really shit, in a country where fuel is expensive, and distances smaller, you’d only get an auto if you physically couldn’t use the clutch.
Nowadays, they’re much better.
If I don’t end up fully electric on the next car, it will definitely be CVT.
