Yeah, given a choice in this car, I'd much rather have a manual than the automatic. But since they didn't come with manuals in the States, it is what it is. I'm okay with that, I have the VUE, two Triumph motorcycles, numerous firearms, one daughter doing grad school in Ireland, and another one ready to graduate from the University of Hawaii, so it's not like I don't have other things to spend my limited funds on, lol...
