I have until 6 months ago a stunch manual driver. The BA came along and it changed a whole lot of things. Tried the Auto first. " I hate Autospastic dear " I said " they are slow and boring dear" I said. She reminded me that she might drive it once a decade and she wanted to try the F'in Auto. So I did. LOVED IT!!!!!! Once used to the SSS it did everything right. Tows more. Easier around the city. No clutch to change. Tried the Manaul. Piece of SH*T T5 tractor box pulled from the deepths of the Titanic. Was no better the the T5 in my EF XR6. I went Auto for that reason. Would like the lever to pull to the right for manual mode on the SSS but can't win them all. PS Dragged of a manual XR6T to the 100km mark. Not much in it. About 1/2 a car. But my car is red so it is faster!!! Buy what you want and what you feel the most comfortable in. They both rock!!!!!

(closed road of course)

Guest Guests Posted 01/06/03 09:16 PM Posted 01/06/03 09:16 PM I find you cant go wrong in performance mode ,the box and donk are at one,no hitting the rev limmiter etc.Pluss you got engine brake when you want it. Sounds like a bit of stick envy to me ,
