Edit: I don't think you need to be premium. I'm not an I've started a poll before. Also just noticed this was my 100th post!  |
Mine is a daily driver and I have to fight traffic, so the auto was a no brainer for me. My calf goes to sleep driving my Challenger to work in that traffic.

In manual mode I don't see there being much difference sound wise. I have video of my auto in manual mode with the FI exhaust on my site and YouTube Channel and it is glorious.

Your really should. I think you'll be surprised.

Preference is something I can surely understand. I wouldn't want an auto in my Challenger as a muscle car should be manual trans. Having said that if I break too much more crap in that car racing it I may do an auto conversion eventually and quit throwing good money after bad. It seems the manuals are much harder on parts for that 4300 lb pig. Do they not have beefed up parts for the autos for power?
