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

[oj88]

I would concede that people who learned driving on an M/T are more likely to explore and use the different modes and shift positions of an A/T beyond just leaving it in D. I guess it's a carry over habit of having that connection with the engine and gearbox. Something I do as well.

It’s now rare to see drivers who truly understand what each shift position and drive mode actually does. They may have an overall idea... like, they know that Power Mode makes their car go zoom... but not really grasping the logic and physics behind how and when things happen.

What I learned from the anecdotal evidence - Not only does owning and driving a manual NSX prevent dementia, it also promotes longevity. Ha ha!

It's quite possible na makaka-relate din ang mga drivers ng commercial vehicles and PUVs rito lol. As long as hindi sila high.

Sa CVT kung downhill may [B]rake or [S]lope mode. Effective naman mag engine brake. Minsan alalay pa din sa preno kung long downhill sa Marcos Highway. Pakiramdam ko baka ma overstress ang CVT belt.
