That said, I agree with your attitude about manual shifting. Despite the SRT's explosive acceleration (there is no boost lag, none, zip, nada). Go fast is very fast got it?), I prefer to participate in the vehicles movement over the ground. It is not "better", it is just more fun for me. Personal preference.

Be careful boasting about manual vrs auto here. The guys and gals get testy about their preferences but when you start comparing performance using "opinions" and "preferences" they will trounce you with the stats.

And, ususally be right.

Or jump in with boldness, and get and education. Friendly mostly.
