3. Auto-stick does help on those downhills as you might want to downshift to save some brakes.
Hmmm... save some brakes or overheat the tranny?[:I] pay me now or pay me later...
Owell, i do the same thing[8]
Brakes are cheaper than the tranny. I used to downshift a lot with a stick but now only when I need to. A mechanic asked me if I'd rather replace the clutch and it's components or the brakes? Brake pads are a lot cheaper. Now compare fixing an auto tranny to replacing brake pads. [xx(]
