I would go for manual in roads that are free from traffic, otherwise I would go for automatic.

Same reason for me. Although too bad mga extra features nasa automatic variants.

Namaster na pag-gawa ng manual transmission kaya wala ka nababalita na nasisira. Wag mo palitan ng fluid kahit 15years hindi yan masisira.

Sa automatic hindi pa namaster kaya meron ka mababalitaan na nasira like ngayon sa ford.

Kung joy of driving eh manual talaga. You control the car....

that may be, and the manufacturer-advertiser wants the buying public to believe it, too.
but "feel-wise", i believe it is still a far cry from the truly manual transmission with clutch pedal.
but this is only my opinion, based on personal experience.

ako maka manual ako kasi i have previous bad experience with AT transmission (tirik sa pasay) pero nung tinesdrive ko ang AT ngayun , sarap ng feeling haha di ka mapagod

either MT or AT okay yan pero dyan sa manila mag AT ka na lang kay sobra na trapik dyan dito sa province nga medyo nagkakaroon narin

Not a car expert but i need 5 replies before i can start a thread so i might as well throw my opinion here. Like what theyve said it has pros and cons. At is more convenient and relaxing esp in traffic. Mt at at certain cases can make u save fuel. And makes you feel like youre in control of the car.

I haven't driven A/T cars that much, so i really really can't tell the better one objectively. Based on car racing games naman... manual trannys get the better edge, d ba? and i prefer it too. Pros and Cons..., maintenance cost, acceleration.. etc. Love to hear your insights mga pare. I appreciate it!

True, that. We have a manual (Revo), a traditional automatic (Granvia), and two automatics with manual shift override (Gen 2 and Gen 2.5 Santa Fe). The Granvia is a sluggish and clunky shifter with loads of shift shock and a rather apparent lack of gears (only 4) during hard acceleration. The experience of the manual shift override of the Santa Fe is far from a manual when it comes to responsiveness. Though the ones I've used in the previous gen Carnival and the previous gen Strada/Montero GLS-V are significantly more engaging. The Revo's manual makes it a pretty lively car in the city, especially considering its power output.
