im sorry. but it sounds like you've made your decision and keep making excuses for yourself as to why you "can't" drive M/T on a daily. I learned in a day and it took persistence and will power to drive my mother's VW M/T. If you want to learn you will do it, every person I've taught or converted to M/T has never looked back. In other countries, they start or only drive M/T, so there's no excuse. I laugh at those who say "they're lazy when it comes to shifting" or, MY FAVORITE, "due to the traffic conditions in my area i feel it would be best to drive A/T." Get over the hump of learning and just do it. Simple.
