Vtim 3rd Gear September 14, 2009 Share September 14, 2009 (edited) by default, family car is Auto transmission, normally driving AT represent luxurious and rich, so many manual car lovers have to switch to auto to avoid to be looked down by others, how do you guys think ? I am the opposite, I look down on Auto cars, cause Manual is the only way to drive a car but too bad, my MPV is Auto, so I also look down on my own MPV actually, to each it's own, some love the "fun" of driving a Manual, some just like to "relax" and let the Auto do the work.

Wbucket Clutched September 14, 2009 Share September 14, 2009 by default, family car is Auto transmission, normally driving AT represent luxurious and rich, so many manual car lovers have to switch to auto to avoid to be looked down by others, how do you guys think ? Those who switch from manual to auto JUST because they want to avoid being looked down upon are those who should be looked down upon. What a stupid reason to switch. People I know either switch because they want to have ease during driving, or wife likes Auto, or the model they like only comes in Auto. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigershark1976 Turbocharged September 14, 2009 Share September 14, 2009 (edited) And that is why my stand stays....3A for handicaps u have reminded me of my ex-colleague... go for test but fail for 2 rounds, 3rd round tulan go for 3A and passed. When he got back to office, the gals tease him.. "huh? you got your auto gear license liao ahh??" .... The male colleague suan him... " wah lao, you sissy leh, a man holding a 3A license..." Everyone look down of him and he became the laughing stock of the whole department.... in the end, LL and go for another 2 round of manual gear driving test to earn back his dignity...
