You're going to do what makes you happy. My cat is far less personable than Chewie but I still love that idiot. He has no clue how close he was to death when I took him from an old girlfriend.

Glad your having fun for a change.

This thread has gone to the dogs....
AT reasons:
1. Traffic. F*ing with a stick in bumper to bumper traffic = no fun.
2. Enjoy doing other things while driving like watching TV/Videos and phone. Hands free phone recommended though....
3. Eating in the car. Though you should be careful, crumbs are a bitch to clean.
4. Sex while driving. Including getting BJs and handjobs. Not recommended for the timid.
5. Weaving through traffic. Easier to do with an automatic.
6. By the way, the automatics can be put in manual mode and you can shift gears.
So the real deal is mostly HP. Drive a 300HP automatic, and you will feel better about a great many things.
How to solve all the MT vs AT issues. Mazda needs to make a semi-automatic. One transmission type and one engine would save them money too. However Mazda should go FI next time or at least kick Mazdaspeed in the *** and have a FI kit ready.

I think that just proves that AT drivers are even worse at driving than originally suspected, not only can't you guys shift gears properly, you are doing other things instead that seriously endanger the lives of you and everyone around you, way to go.
I think everyone should drive manual transmissions, it would force more people to actually pay attention to driving instead of doing other things like you mentioned.
