Re: I don't understand automatics.

Living where autos can only be acquired on a very hard to acquire collectors license, I can’t speak from experience, but I have read stuff on the internet. First of all, is probably the fun factor. I guess that’s the main attraction. From a practical point of view, it’s suppose to make sense for so...
