I learned to drive in manuals (because they're more common in the UK). I currently own two automatics and drive a variety of manuals, automatics and EVs that are kind of inherently "automatic".
I don't see any difference in "driving experience" between manual and automatic. What do *you* think the difference is?
- jjtheblunt 4y agoNot what you were thinking, I guess, but I push-started my manual Saab and Honda many times, could my manual Mercedes but never needed to, which you can't do with an automatic.
- Gordonjcp 4y agoYou can if you get them moving fast enough, but it's terrible for the gearbox.
- jjtheblunt 4y agothat would require some fast running while holding the door and steering wheel!
