lol yea tell me about it, I used to drive MT for all of my car (even the mazda5) and now that I'm driving AT, it just depresses my brain and I start to fall asleep, that is one of the reason I'm debating whether or not to go MT, I dont care about whp gains, I could even careless if the MT is even slower than the AT, I'm just no keen on dying yet

I would go with the AT due to traffic. You will never regret it.

Unless you can have more than one car or guareentee that you will not drive in trafffic to work........ get the auto.
