Soverign said: I can drive manuals as well, but prefer automaticProbably one of the very few on here that can drive a manual with clutch. I'm mostly used to the second set of transmission for manuals, but the last cars I've driven with manual transmission all had the first set with 6 gears and the 6th one being on the right bottom |
| @Kosmonaut @_meimei I actually have a '22 Kona. Fun little car, I like it a lot. The Kona N-Line would be a blast (0-60 in 5 seconds!), but doesn't come in AWD, and I really really prefer having that once winter hits. |

| @Bakchos I might've expressed myself poorly. I have nothing against buying an all-electric if there's decent infrastructure for it. The infrastructure here is great. There are level 2 wallboxes in my apartment building and the city itself has plenty a charge point around, so charging isn't that big of a day to day hassle to me. When you get outside of the big cities, you need to space your charges well between level 3s. That said, I also don't think the car itself is all there yet, especially considering battery life during winter, which notably reduces range. Maybe in a couple of years it'll be "ripe for reaping." Besides, the Kona EV was discontinued here after some caught on fire and plummeted in sales, so no new models. Though I'd consider getting a Hyundai Ioniq 5 or a Kia EV6, it's not something I desperately want, you know? I'm open to other more traditional options. @dragonmade Yeah, I'm driving a 2020 Kona Electric. It's a pretty good car all things considered. Stable, responsive, smooth, hits 100km/h in a little under 7 seconds. I like Hyundai cars, so I'm open to getting one, maybe just not an all-electric at this point in time. |

| pretty reckless, hope i can change my ways. i try to give signal before i turn my steering angle. |
| @Kosmonaut some caught on fire? Damn. I would be reluctant to get one too. Not that I have the money to buy any of the ones you said but you know lmao if I had the money. The company I work for is buying some electric vans for deliveries, so I am gonna soon drive my first ev. Kinda curious to find out how it drives and stuff. How different it is. Could become the future idk. |

| I'm a pretty darn good driver. And I'm someone who always uses their blinkers/turn signals. Unlike SOME drivers!!! 😡 |
| @Kosmonaut That car looks cool! The headlights look different but not in a bad way. |
And if you look at your reflection Is it all you want it to be? |
| When i take the car to drive to work i'm a decent driver. When i take the motorcycle in the weekends to have some fun it's an another story. I always say to myself today i'm just going to ride relaxed then the twisty roads come. |

Soverign said: Probably one of the very few on here that can drive a manual with clutch. Which kind? Both. *smug*   The use of "manual with clutch" statement is redundant (I guess unless you live in India where Hyundai is introducing a clutchless manual transmission (??)) Strange world. Also there's no real skill difference in the "both types" you posted. Driving a stick isn't that hard considering you can learn in a day. I say this as someone who has a manual transmission. Unfortunately my clutch is slipping and there's no more bite point - I'm dreading that service. |

Bakchos said: Only the Kona caught on fire, not the other two. Well, I didn't say I was willing to spend that much money on the Ioniq 5 or EV6. Only that I'd consider it, lol. Thinking about it doesn't cost anything. At the end of the day, I just can't justify that price tag to the accountant myself. @Kosmonaut some caught on fire? Damn.

| Oh, I simply love Carmageddon, so let's drive! I guess I'm better on the passanger seat or... in the trunk. |

| i can drive scooters well and only bike i have drove is royal enfield bullet and i haev yet to learn to drive cars and yeah i am pretty much good at driving. i learned hwo to drive at a young age but not as young as others my age did. the bad road conditions and the traffic here makes you either a rough driver or a really good one |

It is funny af to me that you keep saying the Kona caught on fire, because Kona is like cona. It means pussy in my language. The pussy caught on fire. Middle school joke but it is funny to me. The car is even called Kauai here instead. |

| Thanks, @_meimei! Wow, you guys are the best. You can be my personal driver and bodyguard! Verthandi will graciously pay for everything. |
| I'm ok at everything but changing lanes because its just too stressful |
 |
| 12 years, not a single crash, never lost more than 1 point at a time on my license. I guess I used to have mild road rage outbursts. Nowadays I just wanna get to job in time without stressing, so I get up 10 mins earlier. I tend to think that as long as you have good brakes, reaction time, and stay on your fucking lane, driving is safe. So why are so many mfs driving on the opposite lane in corners with no visibility? :skull: I drive some unholy thing, a Abarth Fiat 500, 135hp and a turbo for just 1 ton, which guzzles way too much gas for my liking. Thinking about getting it switched to ethanol. That thing climbs to 130 kmh in 3rd gear without protesting (except for the plane-at-takeoff noise) but the local gas station owner has a mild orgasm everytime I do that U_U It's also still a Fiat 500, so I have to drive like a grandma on most country roads or my suspensions die... |

But my car is like too big imo, so on the other side of the coin. It is a 2003 Toyota Rav4. It is good for the country roads around where I live but I am thinking of downsizing. |

| I actually just got my license. I try to take things slowly like a granny even though at the same time I have a lead foot that may occasionally peak the speed limit. |
 |
| No, no and no. I'm already scared of accidents so I'm not going to drive in my whole life. I don't really it anyways, I barely go outside. |

| Got my permit to drive when I was 15, kinda crazy that here in Florida 15 year olds are allowed to drive. Well I honestly don't like driving that much, and it seems I drive better when I'm alone for some reason. |

| A careful and speed-limit-watching driver for the most part, but that might change if I can one day get my hands on something with a little more horsepower than your average economy car |

| Depends on the car I'm driving, is it just your average day to day car? Then safe and precocious driving it is. If it's a something like scat pack though...then you just gotta let loose and pray for the best. |

| The one without a license lol. When I used to have one though I'd always watch the speed limit and be careful on the road |

Automatic handles better hills and most terrains than manual. Less getting stuck in mud too. |

| I'm decent I would say. Never had an accident in my life but there is a lot of luck in it. When I was a teenager I was a little bit too much of a daredevil for sure. Whenever there was snow, I would powerslide my way to work in my WRX like a madman, which was kinda douchey. I don't own any sports cars anymore and nowadays I drive a boring EV (e-golf) like a upstanding citizen. |
| I like to go fast and smooth, but it doesn't mean I like risky driving. When in city I often shift from 3 to 5 just to accelerate faster, often change lines and I'm trying not to use breaks - instead I just coast as far as it will be smooth and brake when I really need to stop. I don't use horn when it's no need to, I often let other driver pass when it won't slow me down. Despite this I have very dynamic driving style and I often come from work to home in about 22 minutes instead 28 (as Google predict). In long routes I try to drive 120 km/h when possible, no faster, but it's because of fuel consumption. When fuel is not important then I like to go faster, as fast as engine can until it's safe. It's very different when it comes to drive a tram. I like to drive tram on limit. Without passengers, at depot I like to brake hard and accelerate with 100% power, often making my coworkers scared xD. But when it comes to drive through city I prefer to slow down more than needed, because a lot of drivers don't see trams. When there's no traffic lights then drivers often go right in front of the tram. |
| I regularly go above the speed limit, but did get a ticket recent from a camera going 65km on a 50km. Rough af when it's on a sunday in the summer and the school area is completely empty. |
| Better than Charles Lecuck..at least i dont spin around and run over the barricades |

If you get stuck in mud with auto its over ggwp If you know what you are doing automatic and manual have no difference in traction. It helps that automatic cars are heavier as well. |
