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

[Jeff2308]

I still prefer manual coz i like shifting gears and you have more control of the car.

right now im driving m/t vehicles. i've been thinking kung bibili ako ng sasakyan if m/t o a/t. eto thoughts ko:

pag m/t:

- di makagala yung isang kamay lalo pag city driving (dadakma ng food... hihimas ng cellphone... pipindot ng HU)

pag a/t:

- what if baha? kaso yung habagat the deepest floods i've driven to was only 8 inches high. work to home byahe scenario yun. so no worries
- what if tumirik? kaso this is gonna happen probably on the 15th year or so of today's vehicles.
- less precision driving.

Tama sir yun lang drawback nya kapag traffic hehehe😄😥.... If automatic mas mahal maintenance and kapag brandnew kotse mas malaki mura ng mt vs automatic naglalaro sa 60k to 100 k...

^^^ Price difference between AT and MT hovers around 40T only. Usually the AT version has added accessories compared to the same MT counterpart. Like better wheels, some exterior improvements, etc.

unfortunately, when we buy the AT car, it comes as a package deal with all these other accessories.. hence the more realalistic 60-100K extra...
kung puede lang nga sanang yung transmission box lang ang palitan...
yung ibang accessory kasi ay ayaw ko naman...
"bossing... ayaw ko nyang headrest LCD screen... at ayoko nang manibelang maraming buton..." etc...
kung puedeng tingi ang accessories list...
heh heh.

right!!! to each his own.. tingi rules!
parang yung accessories list of the 60s...
personalized car buying..

i think it is possible... you just have to "compensate them adequately".
kung factory paint color nga... puedeng special order..
everything has a price..

Mas mura maintenance ng A/T pag alaga sa ATF changes. sa 21yrs ng vehicle namin ngayon lang nagpa transmission rebuild, yung previous owner kasi di masyado nagpapa change ng atf
