I learned with a manual back in the day. For the last 30 years I have had only automatics except for my Harley. We recently bought a new Subaru and decided to get a manual to save money. I was surprised to find out that now some manuals have what they call hillside assist which keeps the car from rolling backwards when taking off on a hill. It's just like being on a flat surface. Taking off on a hill with my Harley can get quite tricky sometimes especially loaded down with a passanger on board.
