And switching between manual and auto becomes automatic as well. Back in the old days, I used to need to sit on the right hand whenever I drive automatic. Nowadays, I drive manual/auto about 40/60 and I do what's appropriate automatically.

Besides stomping for a no existent pedal when trying to start an auto car.

99% of my driving is MT but once in a while I drive my sisters car which is AT and the only real issue I have is when coming to a stop, I tend to forget that I don't need to clutch in when coming to a stop so I panic that I might stall the car until I remember that it's not a thing in AT vehicles.

I went about 10 years before owning an auto and yeah it’s hard to transition at first. Before I could need an auto I only drove one if I was borrowing someone’s and I would back up and then jam my left foot on the clutch... I mean brake and screech to a halt. Now that I’ve own autos I don’t try to use the clutch but I still reach down for a shift at random and nothing is there. I drive manual/auto about 85/15. |

I mostly like that 90% of millennials can't borrow my car.

Apparently Canada's take rate is very different than the Americans for the 86.
https://driving.ca/mazda/auto-news/n...than-americans I was not expecting it to be that high. |

Unfortunately they won't be able to borrow my car because manually-driven (with human limbs) cars will be outlawed by then. I'll just have a big farm where we can drive around for the good ol' times. (does anyone know how to preserve gasoline for a couple decades?)

Actually an auto 86 in Canada costs less than the corresponding manual in US. E.g. Canadian base list price for 2019 86 6A is $31,190CAD. At exchange rate of $0.744US for a Canadian dollar, $31,190CAD = $23,114.74USD. In the meantime, the US base list price for 2019 86 6M is $26,665USD.

You can't enter the cost of a car here, enter exchange rate, and do that comparison. What if the dollar was at par? How much would the same car cost here? And FWIW, I drive a AT 86. I DD a MT car. If I can't teach my loving wife to drive the MT car I'm giving up on the MT. I hate her not being able to drive one of our cars. |
