I'll have to agree with oldE & Seahawk here. Driving a stick around town every day in modern traffic is nothing but a PITA. Maybe if you live out in a rural area it might be a different story, but my DDs will always be an auto, especially considering how good the current crop of auto and dual-clutch boxes are. If I feel like driving a stick, I'll pull out one of my old VWs.
