    Pros:
    - easier to learn
    - shifting is something you won't need to worry about when driving
    - burning clutch (a newbie characteristic) is non existent
    - great if you're stuck in traffic

    Cons:
    - more expensive to repair/replace
    - car becomes less exciting to drive
    - left foot becomes a useless appendage

    Di ata applicable sa CVT na A/T ito kc I can achieve average 15 km/l mixed highway and EDSA traffic. Minsan abot pa 20 km/l pag tipid mode driving habits with A/C pa rin

    A/T - malakas sa break pad/shoe at batt. pero no question
    about the easiness esp during traffic and long drives.

    A/T for convenience and ease
    M/T for economy
