For me this need a subjective judgement.when i say subjective, it varies from one person to another... Kung ako tatanungin, mas maganda ma-experience both trannies for a year or two.. Then after that, dun mo palang malalaman best car that suits your need.
Experience-wise, mas prefer ko matic. Especially city driving, super relax sa traffic..

Nahihirapan ako makipag gitgitan sa traffic pag matic, unlike pag manual,isang pitik lang nakausad na.

Pero mas nahihirapan nman ako sa traffic pag manual. So matic na lang and enjoy the traffic.

Pagtawanan ko na lang yunh mga jeep at bus na masakit ang paa dhil sa traffic.

Twisty mountain roads

kung nasa Metro Manila ka, go for the most comfortable to to drive. Mas madali ang automatic sa singitan hehe.

No pun intended sir, but i think walang koneksyon ang pagiging AT na Rio sa pag ooverheat at pagkawala ng preno since separate systems ang cooling system (radiator), braking system (preno) at transmission system. Correct me if I'm wrong though, but having the same cooling and braking system, an MT rio could have the same problems as you stated.

BTT: Pag long drives at pag matraffic, I prefer driving an AT.

Pag ako lang mag-isa, i just use my MT car so pede kong laruin at di ako mainip.

noob question po, I grew up with the notion that AT cars can't be towed. is this true or is this true only in older AT cars? :dunno:

No sir. It can be towed, it can also be pushed. You just can't jump start it through pushing, like with manuals.

hi guys!

May question lang ako about A/T

paano pala pag dadaan sa baha? sa manual kasi diba timpla sa clutch and gas pedal para mag rev yun engine habang nasa baha? pano pala gagawin sa A/T pagddaan sa baha? D parin ba or ililipat sa 1? tapos pano i-rrev para hindi pasukin yun tambutso ng water?

my unit is AT too and my understanding also is that it can't be moved once it stalled. so at neutral N pwede pala maitulak and mahila
