A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Because automatics take out any fun in driving for me, even if it were a newer one that shifts just as fast or faster than I can so it's not about shifting speed or being the fastest. If anyone else likes them or finds them fun that's fine, but I don't. There's just a feeling of disconnect between me and the car and I don't feel like driving it and just rather be a passenger at that point. I think a lot of it was when I was starting to drive I was overly cautious and nervous and would just space out to deal with the stress while driving, and all the cars were automatic. The first car I started to really drive and get comfortable with was a manual and it forced me to constantly pay attention and work through my nervousness, even now after 10 years of driving there are times I'll get antsy and having the manual keeps me from spacing out since it keeps me focused on driving and not on my anxiety. I guess it's a combination of what's fun and safe for me, so the world probably wants me in a manual just as much as I want to be in one.
