Transmission on 4x4: Auto or Manual

[Suzuki-san]

Mga peeps, dahil malapit na ang Aug 9, ano sa tingin nyo ang mas fun to drive at mas may power sa offroading yung automatic o manual 4X4?

[tebs]

pag tinatamad at ayaw na magisip kung anong gear ipapasok, automatic.

for more control, manual.

ako, manual

[Olive Drab]

manual - more fun

[Bubbles]

Manual!!!! no automatics for me. even for daily driven cars.

[mbt]

maraming advantages yung automatic sa off-roading... it's generally superior to a manual in just about any condition except for descending steep hills.

yun nga lang, a manual is more fun to drive, arguably...

[OTEP]

For fun, manual siyempre.

Pero hindi naman ako expert driver so mas preferred ko ang automatic. It is easier to master and more water resistant than a manual tranny.

[Olive Drab]

buti pa si Suzuki-san namimili nalang kung auto or manual
sana may ganyan din akong problem.

[kimpOy]

Auto para naman maiba, pero exciting ang manual

[sixpack]

I'll go for manual

[alex manalo]

manual, more fun and challenging ang driving

[rodcarolino]

mahirap lang sa auto pag downhill, kailangan naka-alalay sa preno...

[johnqpublic318]

Manuals are more reliable but autos are better for rock crawling and desert racing. Most rock crawlers and Baja race trucks run autos...

Manuals offer better engine braking but autos offer better control by allowing the driver to have his left foot on the brake while applying the gas.

[wreckless]

mas madali kung Auto..

pero tulad ng sabi nila..mas masaya ang Manual tranny.


i love shifting gears kaya mas gusto ko ang Manual tranny.

[pajerokid]

Sa offroading... automatic. Less mental load.

Sa Pajero..... manual siyempre. :D

[Suzuki-san]

Sir Olive Drab,

Wala po ako pagpipilian -- manual lang po ang gamit ko.

Alam nyo naman po, wala po ako masyado alam sa 4X4 kaya panay ang tanong ko ng kung anu-ano (para matanggal ang pagka TA???). hahaha!

Thanks po sa mga opinion ninyo!

I tried driving an auto in mud. It wasn't as easy for me and It wasn't fun. masaya yung tumatakbo ka ng 3rd gear at 3 thou rpm then salpak mo sa 1st sabay liko then floor the gas then shift to 2nd. 2h lang to guys ha. Corny gawin to in 4H. Kung 4H may control pa eh. Di ko magawa sa matic yun. I like full control.

[kiper]

automatic..basta marami ka lang pera pang-gas..!! hehe..

pwede yun pag handbrake ang gagamitin mo imbes na engine brake. mas masarap paikutin ang matic dahil hindi gahol sa shifting. mahirap ipasok sa first gear pag umaandar ang gulong mo above 30kph unlike matic

mas relax: auto trans
more control : manual...

meron kayang ride na pwede mo i manual trans and pwede mo rin auto trans... he.hehe..

[jojo_mouth2]

marwen, iyan ba yung pajero mo nasa pic?

regarding tranny with combination of auto and manual, meron sa mga pajero ngayon yung INVECS2 Sports mode....
