    My Dad's first MT car in 20 years came just last year... and he's sixty.

    Driver didn't touch it for the first month... ...ambilis kasi... :hysterical:

    Usage depends not on your age, but your knees. I have arthritis, and there was a period of two or three months where I couldn't drive for more than an hour... some exercise fixed that, but it was painful while it lasted.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Not only the age you got to remember the fact of having a joint problem is really hard to drive.

    Heh... Loko! ...my knees don't act up, anymore, though... have had joint problems since I was a kid... kinda a bummer when you're on the track team with bad ankles, or when you're weightlifting with bad wrists.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    My father is 83 years old and still prefers his drive to be one with a manual transmission.

    Puede na rin. I still have 25 years to reach this age so I will just get a manual transmission ngaun. Kung di na kaya ng paa dahil sa arthritis, I'll just sell the car or pikup then buy the matic.

    Or meron bang malambot na malambot na clutch? Just asking..he he

    masmaganda na talaga gamitin ang mga matic these days kasi even in long drive hindi na masyado nakakapagod,.,.,my dad is already in mid fifties and we usually have a M/T van pero when we decided to replace it he preffered to get an A/T kasi hindi raw siya mahihirapan kahit masakit mga kasukasuan.,.,
