So at the most in normal situaions with a 10 speed manual-you are only going to have to shift 4 to 6 times....with an auto transmission or other modern transmisssion even less-an autoshift you only use the clutch for starting and stopping...keeping it in the power band or "sweet spot" is almost automatic now....truck driving is getting almost like a SUV.....and a lot more women are driving for a living and require more comforts as well as research indicating driver fatigue is reduced by automation...geof
