Aap Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Someone who knows how to drive Automatic only won't be able to immediately drive a Synchromesh, and someone who only learnt how to drive Synchromesh won't be able to drive an Unsynchronized Mesh or Crash Box. That was not the point that I was replying to really. My question was about your claim that only "mentally or physically disabled" would use devices that automate things. If a person uses a battery-screwdriver, he must be physically disabled, otherwise he would use a manual screwdriver and twist his hand? if a person uses excel to calculate things or draw charts, he must be mentally disabled, otherwise he would use pen and paper? Or maybe many things have been automated just because there are ways to do things without any extra effort or attention from a person and it does not necessarily mean that the person is disabled and not capable of doing it manually, if needed.

Dakpilot Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 Good grief people...it is just a joke about auto gearbox vs manual in Europe people are more familiar with manual and many old school purists still frown upon and mock Auto's It is not something to get offended about or take very seriously In Europe and many other places Auto boxes were considered for girls who cant drive or pensioners, however modern 8 speed auto's and DSG boxes are starting to dispel that old stereotype Cheers Dakpilot 1

Essentially yes. In Engineering we learn a lot of Basic Maths on which to build. We learn a lot Basic Tool that later we build more complex/automatic Systems around, but never forgetting the Basic Tools we need to Troubleshoot and Improve the Product. You first learn the Screwdriver before you get the Power Drill before you get to Program the Prodcution Robots or whatever. You learn your Maths with Pen and Paper and only the later Maths allow Calculators, but the first couple Math Exams are all Pen and Paper. Someone who only knows Automatic is useless outside of an Automatic Car. Someone who learned on a 1951 Opel Blitz (Unsynchronized 4 Speed with 2 Speed Diff and an eternally Gutless Inline 6) will have no Trouble with anything facing him after that. (Seriously, if you have a Blitz with the Petrol Motor, Swap that thing for something Cool, like a 371 or 453 Detroit). Also got to drive a late Model T with those funny three Pedals once. That thing is a Handful, or more of Footfull, especially with my Orang-Utan Feet. We are lucky with out Modern Layout. So my Basic Point is that Americans are all [bleep].

Aap Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 It is not something to get offended about or take very seriously Definitely not. He is just throwing out bait (only mentally disabled drive automatic, majority of 109 pilots are ..., all Americans are [beep]) trying to catch a verbal sparring partner. I just answered the call for light sparring. Ever overheard a discussion in a bar along the lines of something like: - Oh you drink Heineken ... real men drink Guinness. - Ah you are watching football ... Liverpool fans are the scum of the earth ... anyway, real men watch rugby. - All brown-eyed people are [beep]. That's the same tactics basically.

Wulf Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) The last thing I want to be doing is agreeing (sort of) with the anti-German-German, but I find the notion of a grown man driving an automatic repugnant. Sure, I get it if you drive in bumper to bumper traffic most of the time (and maybe 'the wife' or 'boyfriend' also uses the car), but otherwise, how can you possibly embrace the joys of driving in an automatic? Answer; you can't, and it doesn't matter what you're driving and frankly, it's unmanly. Oh yeah, and no offence intended to those of you who don't drive a manual. Just sayin ....

My wife wrote her masters thesis in collaboration with a fellow student who had a birth defect, her right arm was like 20cm long and practically useless. (No Wulf, this is not your cue to make a joke about other things that are 20cm long and practically useless) She for obvious reasons could only drive automatic with the gear lever placed at the wheel and she had a special license for that. Wow, we're pretty far off topic now. Maybe it's time to close up shop on this thread? 1

sinned Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 People should know better. Gearbox of a driving machine that represents creme de la creme technology advancement with men's heart and sour infused together is automatic, namely f1. Pedal shift is not much different from tiptronic and from what I read above, many would also consider tiptronic not manly enough. I sat in one f1 machine during Singapore night f1 in a pit. UBS was one of my comp's primary broker so i was lucky to get tickets to suite pit and other goodies. I am a big fan of manual cars so i see where ppl are coming from. I only owned manual cars in my life, but u cant undermine auto as "pussy car" unless f1 are for pussies. For my 2nd car, I decided to not buy ferrari because they all had automatic in the showroom. So I picked up am with 7 gear instead.

So I picked up am with 7 gear instead. The F-1 Cars don't have Automatics, but automatized Manual Transmissions. An Automatic is Characterized by the use of a Torque Converter or Planetary Clutch and Planetary Gears or CVT . An F-1 Car has a Mechanic Clutch and a Synchromesh Transmission. Same for the Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (Dual-Clutch-Trannie). Due to the Lack of Direct Mechanical Connection in the Low Gears they are worse in every way. Less Economical, slower to Accelerate and Respond to inputs, more expensive to Buy and Maintain. The Kickdown is amazingly annoying and unpredictable, especially in Winter going Uphill. You can't Push-Start on a Dead Battery etc. There really is no Point in having one unless you live in Iceland. One of the most Fun Transmissions I ever tried was a Trabant 601H (H for Hycomat) which is too Difficult to Describe here but it is a ton of Fun. It's basically normal Manual Transmission with an Automatic, Hydraulically actuated Clutch and a Breaker-Switch on the Gear-Lever for Shifting. Pictures here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hycomat Have a guess why less than 20% of New Cars in Europe have an Automatic, even less everywhere else in the World.
