Today we're going to dive RIGHT into some controversy, and take on the age old debate, manual vs automatic.  Which is better?  Which is faster?  Which is more efficient?  And which is the most fun?
Prepare to have some assumptions challenged, and some supposedly well known "FACTS" outright proven wrong (with data).  Many of the answers in this video aren't going to be what you expect, and I have 2 pretty amazing bombshells that will challenge the way you think about transmissions in general.  Before we get to all that, we have quite a bit to cover, so let's dive right in!
