I love automatic, I was driving 13, 10 but why to shift it can be done for you
However everybody is different, some people love to work with machine, be part of it, it's their passion and I understand it.
I'm traveler and like the views, if my truck is clean, in the safe state, mechanically sounds great, OK
I don't like Cadillac's with standard transmissions
Canadian Winters are long

I love my Uncles 18 Speed, He allows me to drive it around the block (Business Property) and When he was working for prime he had an automatic, As a "Soon-to-be student" I must say even I would take the 18 speed over the auto any day just because The feel and the moments and the *Dare i say* Grinding of the gears (I've gotten much better though).

I always turn off the engine , when Im not driving,
This is 21 centuary and time to get out off the hole,oil is dirty.
There are many things to do in the truck instead shifting
I drive 10 speed and I would go for automatic any time , the problem is to keep up my skills , my 65 coming soon and driving test every year -
Kaf, don't worry about the skills test, if you are driving now, you can pass with an auto or a 10 speed, I'm 68 and pass every year, may polish 7th once and awhile but it goes in.
Some one called me BuddyBaker once and it stuck, not sure whyBig Duker Thanks this. -
Nothing beats coming out of the GW bridge toll plaza at 6am, drinking a cup of coffee and letting the automatic do the work, priceless.

I do prefer automatics while bobbing or empty, but granny gears can be a blessing while loaded on some of these oil roads...
