I switched to am manual years ago and I have a hard time not buying one. My 06 ranger I just bought was a auto and I would have loved a manual. Better gas mileage cheaper to repair* in most cases. Better control of vehicle by far. I also drive a nice 10 spd Kenworth for a living so I get a lot of shifting in.

I would recommend a manual, to most people but there are many out there I would not trust in a manual.

I absolutely hate that they are straying away from manual. I feel just about every model of car should have manual option
