$18K is cheap? I spent $500 on my XJ, $3k on my YJ.
I'll stick with Jeeps, thank you very much.

Also, what am I repenting for?

Also, why are Vettes always automatic? Can you even get 'em with
manuals? That kind of power with a six speed...man, that would rock.
I guess I could just buy a Porsche.

It's a USA thing, most Americans don't want to exercise their left foot.

Modern computer-controlled automatics don't waste nearly as much power at
the rear wheels as in the past. Still, it tends to further isolate the
driver from the road.

Re: A cheap chance to repent! '98 Vette For Sale
 
Most Vette owners buy the cars because of it's image, not because they
really want to drive the cars like real sports cars, and automatics fit
those kinds of folks better.

It's actually kind of a shame, from everything I've read modern
Corvettes are amazing cars, I doubt most of the owners have even a
remote clue about what their cars are capable of.

Although... I guess the same thing could be said of most Jeep owners,
although obviously not the kind of Jeepers that hang out in this newsgroup!

Well THAT is a generalization.
It's the manufacturers, now a days the manufacturers build the autos and you
ahve to look like hell to find a standard.

If I didn't have a bad left hind leg, I'd still be driving a clutch.

If you lived in Europe, you'd have to look like hell to find an automatic,
and it would probably be a Mercedes. Even the taxis have manual shift.
They really work it driving in heavy traffic too.

I'll bet they do.
I used to commute to California's Bay Area in my Cobra, it was always fun
coming home but when you drive a clutch it's just second nature.
I'm looking back and I'll guess that 90% of my rigs have been standards.
I made my daughters learn to drive in a standard, now they won't drive
anything else.
