i selected an auto, NOT b/c i am lazy, but rather b/c i drive in peak Rush Hour times and I work 45 miles away from my house in ATLANTA!

Not, to nit pick, but i seriously doubt that those who drive an auto are lazy.

My mercedes was an auto, so was my ranger, and my first wrangler.

Can i drive a manual?? yes... and i prefer to if i did not work in atlanta or at least worked odd hours when there was no traffic.

Beside, how am i supposed shave, talk on my cell phone, and email clients while i am driving a stick?? That would be DANGEROUS! jeeeez

So all my 4 wheel verhicles have been manuals. I loved the YJ with it's 5 speed, but the 05 Ruib with the 6th speed felt like a logging truck. It was way slower than my 05 5 speed, and speed shifting was not a possibility.

So I'm going auto this time. When I shift, I don't like to wait 2 seconds between gears to match up the correct RPM.

I'll be using my motorcycle for my Shifting fix!

I went 6 speed because I tell my vehicle when to shift, it is way more fun to drive, I have a short daily drive and I'll probibly be pulling trailers now and then on the weekends too.
