    shifting is for people whose manhood is in question by driving an auto
    and if you didn't learn to drive a standard in school then your in trouble
    i was driving the farm tractor at 10
    and a quad box 2 stick at 19 my manhood is intact
    but yes transam does have all auto one less thing to think about for a newbie
     
    LaBubba Thanks this.

    the ones crying about auto's the loudest have never driven one
    standards will never go away and they shouldn't plenty of jobs they are needed
    but plenty they are not

    i just dont ever haul real heavy loads and deal with many stoplights and stop signs close together so i would rather not shift but it doesnt kill me or anything--just an inconvenience.

    May just moved to the top of my list. Equipment is exactly what id like to have, I want to drive all 48, and id certainly like to feel like I matter as a driver. Ive still got a little while to wait until I turn 21, however I have been driving for a local coop for 6 months so far, and want to know where to go when that time comes. Thanks for your input.
