Automatic with Sport mode.

I drive manual like everyone else in the UK.

I imagine driving automatic would be quite fun though, like driving a go-kart.

I've driven both, but enjoy driving too much to actually get an automatic myself. I prefer having control.

I never learned to drive stick. I know the concepts and what to do when, but never had to drive one so haven't bothered. So automatic.

You already know what I think. I want to learn manual and the car I get in a couple months will definitely be one.

First weekend home, I'm coming to Seattle, Aaron. You're teaching me how this shit works.

And then we can go do fun shit that night as like a "holy shit I'm finally back from deployment" kind of thing.

I live in Tacoma now, but we can still go to Seattle so you can learn to tackle those hills.

We need a test vehicle though.. I don't want you killin' my car the way I did when learning to drive stick. We can split the costs on an Enterprise rent-a-car or something, drive to Seattle, pick up Zoten, and with our powers combined you WILL learn to drive a manual.

Upon success, you'll unlock an SZ achievement.

I don't drive (had lessons, but I've got no spatial awareness it would seem, and I don't find it particularly enjoyable either), but I do ride a motorbike, so on a technicality I've got to go manual. =P

I much prefer manual. However, with my current vehicle, I think I'd roast the clutch with the off-roading.

That could also work. Unless James just lets me fuck around with his jeep.

Summon his ass to this thread.

His Jeep is an auto. Sadface.

Automatic... only because I don't know how to drive manual, but I did learn a tid bit about the gears and what nots when I tried riding a motorcycle.

How well did that go for you? I remember first learning to ride, back when I was like 10.
