There isn't big trend in moving to automatic transmission. Yes, rental cars are automatic, etc, but most of the people will still likely choose manual instead of automatic when buying a car. Including me, somehow I just feel more in control of the car that way. Unless I buy some supercar without manual option. IIRC manual transmission is something like 80% of the cars in Europe.

Yes. More work too. I used to have 2 cars. 1 was a manual sports car and the other a suv. Different occasions
