Now when you say it, I really think that I enjoy the "in control"
feeling. I simply find manual more fun than the automatic, especially
on a long drive.

If I could, I guess I'd put manual mixture control, a gas glow control
knob, and so on, until the car starts looking like airliner cockpit and
just driving to the mall requires a co-pilot and an IFR flight plan
filed with the FAA, :-)

P.S. To keep it "on-topic": I don't have GoTo - but you probably
         guessed this already, :-)

P.P.S. I propose the following poll: goto/no-goto vs. manual/automatic
         transmission. My entry: no-goto/manual.
