- Well... Some people just do not like driving enough to feel like they should
- start using sticks to pull mechanical parts to different positions.
-
- Or they might be lazy like me. I feel that muggling with the stick in a city
- is a waste of my efforts because it can be automatized. Similarly I do not
- get any kicks from changing in order to accelereate or slow down.
-
- Generally I'd say that what you like is the best choice for you.
