Re: Chinese build crap, and will never catch up to the japanese. Mon, 26 September 2005 05:08 Go to previous messageGo to previous message
A recent letter to the editor in motor was a cack, he stated that the SMG gearboxes shat on a manual as it gave the driver more time to focus on the road, motors reply, if you can't steer a car and change gears at the same time then WTF are you doing on the road.

If ppl are incapable of co-ordinating a clutch changing gears whilst still keeping the car driving straight they simply shouldn't be on the road. Auto's have great applications for city driving, and for fleet cars but if you are incapable of getting a manual license stay off the road.

When my brother went to the north coast with his mates, on a trip down the mountain the guys in autos road the brakes all the way down, woohoo, and one of his ingenius female (asian) friends asked him what the line above his speed was. Hello its called a tachometer (digital dash in an echo). I love driving a manual car and would only buy an auto if i was forced to, but then again some ppl just need auto's as they have no idea.
Chick i know has a 1.3L swift (not a GTi) anyway she will drive up very steep hills in 5th gear at 70kmph with the car laboring to no end.
I also think its time my dad got an auto, cos the camry is soo quiet on occasions he'll leave it in 4th (for long periods of time) on the freeway chewing down lots of fuel. You can't say anything to him cos he'll go ape shit, and with his lack of attention he pays sometimes i think he just shouldn't be on the road at all.

I'm just worried that i'll become like him one day and it scares me, in learning to drive i have pretty much become the antethesis of my dad. He never uses indicators and when he does just clicks them on and off. He either speeds or drives well under the speed limit, brakes late, has fairly poor gear selection and generally has a blatant disregard for checking blindspots. Oh and his favourite is hitting the rumble strips on the freeway.

The funniest bit is to teach you how to drive he's great he knows what you have to do but has just become complacent, and generally these days i try and avoid being a passenger in the car with him as I feel its just a matter of time befor something happens.
