Re: [RC] Stick vs. Automatic - heidiGranted I do perfer a stick, but with the automatics that both GM and Ford are using in their 2004 trucks, there is little advantage of a stick and a lot of disadvantages if you have to drive through places Atlanta - even occasionally. I've only had the pleasure of Atlanta in rental cars, but have done Seattle, Portland, greater San Francisco, greater Los Angeles, San Diego, Salt Lake City, Dallas/Fort Worth, Oklahoma City, Denver, and a few others towing with my stick shift on numerous occasions with no complaint. Granted, I might not want to commute to work there towing a trailer every day, but still, didn't find the stick to be that limiting... :-) And having done some of those on the ice, I darn sure wouldn't have traded for an automatic on THOSE days!
