To me the MT vs AT discussion has nothing to do with which one is faster now a days. The evidence points that both are equal to the task of getting the car down the road. My personal reason for loving the MT. It forces you to pay attention to the task of driving. On a regular basis i see dudes who drive AT's texting, talking on the phone while phone is in hand, or eating a damn burger while driving. If you an MT, your *** is driving and paying attention. Period. Very difficult to drive in traffic and text, talk w/o handsfree or eat if you have a MT. So you end up just driving your car and paying attention to what your vehicle is doing vs. the surroundings. Kinda like it was meant to be. Get yourself an AT and you are guaranteeing a distracted driver.
