6. I hate automatics...

But have one. I also still have a 5 speed manual that I will never get rid of, I love it, had it for decades, just restored the underneath stuff, body next. If I pare down, the automatic goes. I live where I drive on a whole lot more then just pavement so I need total control from the cabin to the tread, period. I can't trust an automatic in many places.

I used to drive semis, they had automatics back then but I never used one. Don't know that I'd want to.

I hope they manage to make electrics with manual transmissions somehow.
