cheers

regardless mileage on the highway should be higher than the city, unless of course you are driving "pedal to the medal" all the time

I dont like autos. My first car was an auto and I wont get another unless its a parts car

Just my preference, tho I do see the benefits of an auto. Like for a rock crawler or a tow rig, an auto would give me a less to think about so I can focus more of the task.

i agree with the rock crawling, however i have to disagree with the towing, i much prefer a manual transmission when towing, as i am able to hold gears and stay in the proper powerband, etc.

True BUT I have never towed so I could use the break lol. But I see your point, staying in the powerband is a huge bonus of a manual

That and shenanigans of course!
