Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I find that very hard to believe when I can keep my car from unnecessarily downshifting when going up a slight incline. Or putting it in neutral while coasting.
Hell when I first got my car the avg mpg was 21mpg and after driving it for a few months I've gotten it up to 30.
This is obviously anecdotal evidence so if anyone has more info on it that'd be great
There's a few articles out there. A search on Google scholar might show some more results but I just clicked one of the first ones for, "automatic vs manual transmission efficiency"
At least based on fuel efficiency, an up to date automatic will be more fuel efficient. A manual will always be more fun and have a place in my heart.
