It's just like acting and being an actor or actress. There are those of you who would know what can happen if a person tries to *act a certain character* rather than *be a certain character*. There is a significant difference. The person just acting is not very credible and he-she looks out of sync and overall out of place.
On the other hand actors-actresses who do know how to act (and act well), they actually *become* the character rather than *act* the character.
Vivian Leah was so good at being her character in front of the camera to the point where her career gave her major manic depression that could not be controlled by medication. She ended up recieved EST (electric shock therapy). That just goes to show how commited she was and that she was an amazing actress.
Now keeping all the above in line imagine all the cars in hill country. Everyone driving their cars with manual transmissions are not riding their brakes the way those driving their automatic transmission cars are doing. This is because the drivers with manual transmissions are synchronized with not only the gradients of the road but with their vehicles RPM's and MPH as well.
The drivers with their manual transmissions are "being the car", rather than the drivers with their slush boxes that are merely "acting-driving the car".
Ever heard of the expression, "Don't drive the car, be the car"? Well this is where it comes from.
Drivers in their slush box cars should be banned from the road. Anyone so lazy that they can't shift gears and be in sync with the automobile and the road shouldn't be driving. And for the DMV road test, all drivers need to required to take the test driving a manual transmission car, otherwise they won't be able to test on an automatic.
It's the principle of it. Drivers in their slush box cars are a nuisance on the road, more particularly in hill country.
