These days, it seems that everyone drives an automatic transmission car. Volvo dealerships, among dealers of many other cars, often feature a much higher percentage of automatic vehicles, than manual. What is it that caused this trend? Automatic transmission cars are much easier to drive, but manual transmission cars are generally cheaper and get better gas mileage. One might think people would give it more consideration, within a society in the midst of a bad economy and high gas prices. Perhaps they need even more reasons to choose a manual transmission car.
Have you ever started to lose speed as you are driving up a long hill while your car makes an obnoxiously loud noise as it climbs? With a manual transmission car, you can put a swift end to the noise by simply shifting into the next gear. Interested in putting the power of your car to work? Downshift the car and feel your body fly backwards into the seat. It may take a good deal of practice to learn how to operate one, but the rewards are great. Despite the popularity of automatic transmissions, you can still find a number of stick shifts at Volvo dealerships in NJ.
