    I drive an auto. Other than heavy traffic, I prefer a standard especially when hauling liquid.

    I love my 13 speed manual transmission...unfortunately these bean counters can't comprehend that offering both as an option to drivers is beneficial, of course many have never driven so can't expect them to. A few driver friends I know drive for company that offers both manual and autos. Choices I believe will rule the game as and if they(bean counters) get in their own bind...my opinion of course.

    Grab bean counter. Date same. If male, hire a hottie to stroke him up until pink throw him into cab seek out the old deadman's grade pronounce we are going to be killed becauise this fleet option automatic is too *&^^ to be dealing with a hill lik that. Maintain beancounter;s vitals where possible. Pay hottie as necessary.
