    My wife have been driving our manual tranny pick-up ever since. May idea siya on how to change tires pero di nya ma apply sa actual because a 32 inch mud tires is too heavy for her Shes actually more confident to drive in a stick shift than an AT. Kahit sa motorcycle, She would rather drive our raider150 6speed manual than a wave or mio.

    Yeah less people know how to drive manuals today. I used to judge people who don't drive manuals, but the reality is that it's getting more and more irrelevant especially if you're a city dweller.

    AT cars now are more prevalent than they were 20 years ago. They are also much smoother, without the huge FC penalty and power loss of before. They are certainly more convenient in traffic.

    as an aside,
    if fuel economy is your thing,
    don't look at the transmission box.
    look at the engine and the body.

    I started in manual, and had 2 manual cars before I got an AT.
    And still want to drive manuals.

    Pero if I can only have 1 car today automatic pa rin ang bibilhin ko.
    Living in the city and its attendant traffic praktikal ang mag-automatic.

    I test drove my bro-in-law's 2022 Nissan Almera with CVT last night.
    I just realized how much body weight my Altis is lugging around, even with a 2.0L.

    a little bit off topic. i feel the last time na may significant fuel economy gain with introduction of technology was because of fuel iinjection. i say that because my dad owned a 1990 manual corolla gli (4A carb) then came to replace it after was 95 civic vti(PGM-Fi). both manual. mas malaki at mas malakas ang civic yet significantly better ang fuel mileage. today with newer ATs 6sp...10sp and especially with CVTs i think din malaki ang improvement ng fuel economy with all due consideration. though i have yet to drive a cvt with any appreciable amount of time.
