I've never owned an automatic but I live and work in the country. During the holidays I did lots of city driving, and if I had to do that on a regular basis, I would buy an automatic in heartbeat.

6 speed would have been a little more fun. Got the auto for the wife more than anything due a old back injure that flares up when pushing the clutch in and out in traffic. Plus I know me I would have ripped the face off the clutch or something speed shifting the sucker... lol

Really? I'm not. I had an X with the auto. Can't believe I did that for nearly 18 months. !
Back to normal now.
