    I would love to find a school with Auto's so me and my wife could team. To this day she can't drive a stick and I never touch the clutch outside of stopping and starting. An occasional shot to get in our out of a gear to match speeds.

    The new restrictions are coming up in many states. Here in NY you are probably restricted to the Auto. The reason probably was that you tested out at the DMV with an Auto. In order to get that restriction removed you would have to retest with a stick shift. No other way to remove it.

    Keep saying 'you'.
    I do not have an Auto restriction and I did not test in an Auto.

    I am sure there are but why would you want the "E" restriction on your license?

    Holy crap, these topics are "Automatic" topics are popping up now as much as lease pur and FedEx wreck threads. Learn to drive people, just because the stick is bigger then what you pack it wont hurt you.
