>> The only difference is it won’t comply Ya, I don't want to get into an argument with my car. I want a transmission that will actively allow the engine to stall, or let the rev limiter do its thing. I also want a clutch that I control, one that will engage when I ask it rather than a second later, which is a bigger deal in snow/mud/rock. A couple weeks ago I had to rock my car out of some deep snow (snowed-in parking spot). An automatic just will not engage/disengage fast enough on command for such trickery.
