Re: A Survey about snow and cars. Macharius Send a noteboard - 06/01/2010 02:31:49 AM

1: Do you have snow? How much?

2: Do you drive an automatic or a standard?

3: Why do you choose to drive your above answer?

4: Where do you live?

5: Add a question of your own.


1. Nope, we have a foot of ice: because there's nothing like spinning my tires and achieving "40 miles an hour" while getting passed by grandpa in his walker on the sidewalk.

2. Auto.

3. It was the only option available on the cars on the lot when I purchased my car.

4. A poorly heated attic-apartment of a Victorian house in St Paul, MN

5. Would you be willing to trade bitter cold for deep snow?

Or people who like to actually be in control of their cars. Automatics are sloppy. Ghavrel - 04/01/2010 11:13:17 PM 553 Views

Acceleration is useless in automatics. I don't know why people even try to argue this. Ghavrel - 05/01/2010 06:11:00 AM 522 Views
I don't understand why its useless in automatics. I accelerate just fine. callandor1000 - 05/01/2010 06:31:33 AM 666 Views
As I said before, its a question of preferring control, not of "needing" it. Ghavrel - 05/01/2010 08:10:15 AM 520 Views
