Shifting is being in full control of your vehicle, holding a gear and drifting for miles on snow covered roads is screaming road head. Sorry you're the giver, not the receiver. Stick shifting for the fucking win.. You need a fucking exorcist. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, what’s the gearing like with the manual? Do you have to shift 3-4 times to get up to speed? Rubicon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found it doesn't react naturally, something about it doesn't seem right. But it does allow fellas like Spin to not chip his manicure while changing lanes...
