But really, the Max is pretty easy to learn on. The clutch is light and forgiving, especially compared to some cars I've driven. Traffic can definitely be a pain but it's not as bad as some make it out to be. Once you're pretty good at it I guarantee you'll be hooked. It's soooo much more fun. <----- PERIOD

When you drive an automatic, you use your right leg and one arm. Then people say that stick is too much of a hassle in traffic but all you're doing is just using both arms and both feet instead of only one of each. Me no understand what the problem is
Problem = Lazy Americans!! hehehe
Stick in traffic = full body workout.

After my opther auto's I said I definantly wanted a stick next. So with this maxima I finaklly got one and I dont ever want to go back. I mean there is no comparison. Everyday I commute in traffic and the city but have never said to myself "Man I wish I did not get a stick". i want all my cars to be manual from now on.

I had a 2K1 auto SE, but got so bored with driving it that I sold it and got a 2K1 5-speed GXE. The only regret I have is that I should have bought a 5-speed to begin with! As far as driving in traffic, shifts are very smooth and easy (provided you've had the fuel-cut TSB done), so this is no issue at all.
You bought your MAX to enjoy the driving experience, and like everyone else says, you'll get way more enjoyment from driving a stick!
