Nako. More on personal choice na po yan. Btw, mas limited yung glx. Wala yung green yellow at blue ata. Sa gls lang yun

Thank you to guys for all the great help Without this site (tsikot) and it's helpful members, I might end up getting a fiesta or a wigo. Again, thank you I will now be getting a Mitsubishi Mirage GLX CVT A/T over Toyota Wigo and Ford Fiesta. God bless and all the best to all of us!

Manual transmission pinakasafe sa lahat.

- Pag automatic pwede itakas ng mga bata makukulit.

-Yung mga nastroke, health problem, nataranta eh napa-apak ng todo sa gas pedal eh matic palagi.

- Kahit hindi mo palitan gear oil in 15-20 years wala problem mangyayari. Sa automatic subukan nyo wala palitan atf eh yari kayo.

All debatable...

Manual transmission pinakasafe sa lahat.

- Pag automatic pwede itakas ng mga bata makukulit. -- Kapabayaan ng magulang wag isisi sa sasakyan.

-Yung mga nastroke, health problem, nataranta eh napa-apak ng todo sa gas pedal eh matic palagi. -- How often does this happen?

- Kahit hindi mo palitan gear oil in 15-20 years wala problem mangyayari. Sa automatic subukan nyo wala palitan atf eh yari kayo. -- Like comparing a calculator to a computer. The latter needs more care (ie. software patches, anti-virus, etc., along with it the risk of failure) because it's doing more than what a calculator is doing. That's the price to pay for convenience.

= Hindi ko sinsisi, Sinabi ko lang madali gawin ng bata sa automatic transmission. Sa manual trans dalawa paa kailangan mo gamitin at kanan kamay para ikambyo. Hindi magagawa ng bata yan.

= Wala ako statistics pero sa mga news like yung sa china bumulusok paatras eh matic. Dito sa pinas yung sumikat na nastroke sa parking lot greenhills na lumusot sa pader. Kahit yung funny montero sudden accelaration should be called nagpakamalan brake pedal ang gas pedal.

= Eh ang comparison Manual vs Matic. Kaya sinabi ko lang maintenance ng dalawa.

Kung baga hands down lamang na lamang ang manual. Durability and safety.

For me i'd still prefer manual transmission than automatics. Generally almost no maintenance ang manual kasi. It's quick on the wheels. Responsive i should say. The only time i want the auto trans is when there is heavy traffic.

Karamihan (hindi kayong lahat ah) ng nagsasabi pangit automatic o may mga excuse sa automatic ay di pa nakadrive ng automatic. Ganyan din ako dati e. Iniisip ko reliability, maintenance, delay sa shift, magkamali ng apak at kung ano ano pang rason. Nagdiscuss kami ng family, decided to go with automatic para matuto rin mga babaeng kapatid ko. Thankfully yun ang decision namin. Pwera sa hindi pagod sa traffic, na-ACL left knee ko. Kung manual yan ilang buwan ako di makadrive after surgery. At we'll never go back to manual kasi ok na ok naman pala ang automatic

[rey752]

I'd prefer a car with AT transmission,even on long drives may OK automatic for me.but sadly the vehicles we have now is all with manual transmission, haha cause since we can drive manual naman so we buy manual CAUSE IT CHEAPER, cheaper to buy & cheaper to maintain.

[oj88]

^^ Agree.

You just have to weigh in the pros and cons and decide for yourself alin ang priorities mo. Most people driving an A/T tanggap na na mas mataas ang cost of ownership nito para makuha nila ang convenience. Well, ganun din naman ang power steering. Babalik ka ba sa mechanical 'pawis' steering para lang wala ka nang mine-maintain na PSF, pump, hose, at steering rack? Sa bagay, sa non-pwered steering, grasa lang ang sagot sa lahat ng problema.. :D Nga lang, maglalakihan mga braso natin.

Ayaw ni mommy o ni ate nun.
