pros and cons ng A/T, please post your responses, well for me i like a/t kasi tinatamad ako mag **** ng gears, what about u guys? ano preference nyo and why

[tebs]

to all 4x4 gurus,

ok lang ba na automatic ang transmission ng 4x4? ano mga pros and cons nito?

for me kasi mas practical ang automatic kung weekend warrior. wat ya think?

[newbee]

yan din naisip ko eh, kasi baka maki-off road din ako... ok lang ba a/t pang off road?

[Ungas]

IMO, maganda rin naman ang A/T, without the hassle of shifting gears while you fondle with your gf/wife/kabit/who-it-may-be, hehehe :D For offroading, better shift it to L1 a big no no in D. Plus the advantage over the manuals that the tranny is enclosed therefore, there's no risk of wet clutch.

On the other hand, in M/T you control the engines power. When and where to put more power or not. :D Plus maintenance wise, mas mura mag alaga ng manuals. :D

Final verdict: 50-50 basta't umaandar ng maayos at walang sakit sa ulo, "suportahan taka". 8)

[superbok]

yung a/t dali umandar lalo na kung traffic. mas magastos nga lang sa gas.

yung m/t mas mabilis arangkada. tama nga... you have more control with the engine power.:wink:

[pajerokid]

the only advantage of AT is during traffic dahil hindi ka kakambyo.

Sa 4x4 hindi ko ma-imagine kung paano ka babanat ng trick maneouvers, like 3rd gear sabay primera. etc etc.

If you agree with me that offroading is all about control, then you know the tranny for you :D

[splerdu]

the auto tranny actually has a slight advantage in offroading (at least for beginners) because of the slushbox. this lets the car go along as slow as you want it to without stalling the engine, and it lets you ease out of sticky situations with less risk of putting on too much power and spinning the wheels.

for a daily driver..a/t
for weekend car..m/t
nakakatamad na nga sa traffic papadyakpadyak ka pa ng clutch parang
kang nakabisikleta kaya maganda lang ang m/t kung paminsan minsan lang or pang off road or sa race...

[HITMAN*47]

Base on my experience,
Pag City driving, maganda ang A/T...smooth na smooth ang ride.
Pag Hi-way driving, Manual naman ang maganda...sport na sport.

Yun Lang po

[pajerokid]

AT ..... slightly more fuel consumption. Kung honda AT, mag-ipon ka na pang overhaul nyaahahahaa :lol::lol::lol:

splerdu::: If youre using 4low, MT and youre on 1st/2nd gear , you could totally forget the clutch as you would have a difficult time stalling the engine in Low range...... but of course this could still happen if you do a full stop without engaging the clutch :D

[kimpOy]

kung off road, ok ang manual
pero kung car a/t vs car m/t sa a/t na ako since 12 years old ako, manual na drive ko eh i need a break he..he

pros and cons ng A/T, please post your responses, well for me i like a/t kasi tinatamad ako mag **** ng gears, what about u guys? ano preference nyo and why

pros:

a) sarap mag drive, lalo na kung dito ka sa manila (maski naman sa probinsya)
b) offers same power as MT



cons:

a) di pwedeng itulak pag tinirik.
b) mas mahal ng konti maintenance
c) more fuel consumption dahil di mo macontrol ang rev vs. shifting.

[colt45]

mt syempre, mura maintenance. mas macho pa dating.:wink:

tigerwoods,
agree. except i think there's a bit less power with AT than with MT.

im, sa kin kasi its about the same eh. the only difference is yung hatak while overtaking dahil you cant really control the gears directly.

:roll:

[fierari]

kung marami kang pera pang pagawa o palit kotse go for the a/t


kung tag tipid ka at tama lang ang sweldo mo m/t ka







IMO mas durable talaga ang m/t kesa a/t papagurin ko na lang binti ko. Exercise ba heheheh

[amacatan]

ok ba ang automatic transmission ng isuzu? parang naga-alangan kasi ako dun sa crosswind na diesel a/t e :?:

[mbt]

mas gusto ng australian off-roaders ang a/t...

[Leon275]

A/T Both ways offroad or on the road. mas preferred kung minsan ng mga offroaders AT coz wala na sa mind nila pagtimpla ng clutch and they can concentrate more on the terrain. IMO same as MT rin ang AT when it comes to control, the AT adjusts itself depending on the incline of the terrain and yung apak sa accelerator.:D

IMO lang po:mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

[tebs]

i think pag usual driving ng at, you can control the gear shifting.

this is done by:
up gear-- letting the accelerator pedal go, then gas again.
down gear-- pushing the accelerator pedal down until it shifts down.

IMHO you can still control the gear shifting even without touching the gear shift:mrgreen:
