PC transmission poll

The day I complain about driving a stick is the day I turn in my man card and take up knitting as a hobby. I drive an automatic, but if it gets pulled for maintainence and I get a stick I am fine with it as long as the lights work and the tires are good.

As long as It has power steering! Thats all I care about.

I see young guys these days all the time who can't drive a stick. I'd rather die than admit that when I was that age.

I bet half of them don't know how to check their oil, much less the transmission fluid.

Didn't the old school ones have plastic wheels too? We hav a few old relics hanging in the yard.

The one I took my driving test in had to be at LEAST 6 full rotations of the steering wheel, lock to lock. I never seen anything like it before. When I got back in my Hyundai, it felt like a damn racecar. Lord help me if I have to drive one of those every day.

And I couldn't go into 1st unless parked. Told the guy I could do it in my Hyundai if I'm rolling but not going fast enough for 2nd gear.

25 years in and I would be hard pressed to check any of the fluids.

And some leg room. Some of these older trucks are so damm close to the steering wheel. It's like they built them trucks for somebody that's like 5 foot 6 not over 6 feet tall lol

The only fluids we are responsible for as drivers is the wiper fluid.

Until it starts an ungodly knocking 50 miles from the center!!

I know where that one is.

Is that knocking? Shift to low gear and floor it!

Auto is definitely nicer on some routes, but honestly I think I prefer the stick on a route with a lot of DR stops because there's less involved on the start/stop process. Don't have to shift into park to stop, and the vehicle is already in gear when you start. As far as ratio it's prob 3/4 auto at my center.

This doesn't make any sense. You have to shift into first. Pull parking break then deliver. On return. Parking brake off and shift out of first. You

There are equal amount of steps with a manual or auto. Stop car with foot on clutch in whatever gear, place in 1st, ebrake. With auto you just stop and throw it in park and ebrake.

Big difference in auto versus manual is your using alot more body parts n repetitive motion with a manual versus the automatic. Pretty much a no brainer really. Easier to drive auto versus stick.
