Then Progressive it is! I thought they might do the comparison thingie for me, but I guess that's not for renters.

Used to be that manual transmissions were lighter, and that was one reason you got better mileage with them, or so my dad used to say.
I love having a manual transmission, but NSM in heavy traffic, or as David says, when in traffic in SF. Bah on the way there are lights at the top of the hills!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Also my Mom had a perfectly good manual, but as she got older she lost the upper body strength needed to buy one, had to sell it and buy an automatic. She would have been a lot better off financially if she had had an automatic to begin with. If you are middle aged or older, or if your health is not great I highly recommend an automatic just because it is easy to lose the ability to drive shift if your health takes a turn for the worse.

My four-cylinder truck is considered underpowered by a lot of people, but a stick shift can make up for that. I had a diesel Rabbit with a stick and loved it, but the automatics were almost undrivable. They went from zero to 50 in about a day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
