Lol yeah yeah I can't drive because I actually know what gear I need to be in when I exit the turn, right. A dump truck will kill me if I am not ready I gear... I should drive a Prius because I don't drive aggressively enough since I use brakes instead of the engine. I am a liar because I said brake pads were $20 instead of $40. Keep on with the fallacies... Dando might be right though, maybe I am just lazy and maybe the wear is mostly negligible but it still seems silly to me keep downshifting your car when you could just press the brake and get the same effect. There are times when it make sense but most of the time the regular old brakes are just fine if you know what the next gear you will need to be in is in advance. And at the end of the day if I am going to choose between wearing on pads or my clutch/engine/transmission... brake pads all day long. Even if it means I shouldn't have a manual because I don't drive it like AutoX day everyday...
