Nothing wrong with autos. We can have a genital measuring contest here all day, but anyone that says a manual is easier to drive than an auto is full of it
I have a manual and love it. So, alpha males out there, I am not saying auto is better, superior, more desireable, or anything. Just that at the end of the day, the auto is simpler for the driver. On AND off road. The end
its just a preference, i used to have a 86 xj with a ax15 now my 89 xj has an aw4 and it has its pros and cons. one thing i do like though is that i dont Need a 4:1 low range to crawl real slow like you would with a manual
