Transmissions, which one is superior?

Question

manual transmissions and automatic transmissions,which one is superior or inferior? In fuel economy or Mechanical efficiency and or in driver concentration? what's your thought?

Answer 1

I like manual better myself.  Helps you stay awake when you're driving late night on a highway by yourself.  It helps you save on gas if you're smart about it, ie, control the revs, etc.

Answer 2

Manual is best because it gives you more control.

Answer 3

manual is better they give a lot less problems than the automatics do ,the only thing that you usually have to do to manual car is change the clutch in it which is also cheaper than having to get an automatic transmission rebuilt these days,i like a manual a lot better than an automatic and they also get better mileage most of the time,good luck.
