Day 4

Here’s my Day 4 report of the week of A/T manual shift mode only.

Had time to drive around town and to take a long ride in the twistys of the Ocala National Forest. Still sticking to paddles only and it’s still a hassle for the stop then turn situations where 1st is wound out half way through the turn and the paddle can’t be reached. I’ll try reaching for the floor shifter tomorrow.

I can see where ultimately my long term driving habits will probably be in normal or sport mode and using temporary manual mode particularly for downshifts when coming hard into turns and setting up to accelerate out.
