Battle of the Transmissions: M/T vs. A/T

[miked]

gamit ko ngayon ay conventional AT (cable-hydraulic shifting) diesel pickup. pero mas maraming taon at milyang natakbo ko gamit ang MT. on sundays, ginagamit ko yung mcarthur ("willys") jeep ni byenan just to exercise it. 3 speed na kelangan mo pa idouble clutch when downshifting. ayaw ng makina ng nasa low speed kundi kakadyot kadyot. gusto higher rpm parati.

sa DIY community, some would still prefer the MT (like me). di na kaya ng powers ko ang internals ng AT. pero on traffic hands down ako sa AT atsaka sa acceleration. pero on long drives sa provincial and mountain roads, i prefer MT. 80% of me will still pick the MT tutal di naman ako napapadaan on traffic on a daily basis. kapag matanda na siguro settle down with an AT. hehehe

pananaw ko lang naman.
