The Magneto 2.0 EJS concept does yes. But the 4Xe is auto-only.I thought I had read somewhere that the Jeep electric had a manual transmissionā¦
I'm hanging on to my Nismo Z. I got way too much in it.Manuals have been dying a slow death for decades in the US. The Tacoma will be the next large name to lose the manual option i'd bet big money on that. Though it does make me happy to hear the Supra is bringing the manual back, and the new Z is keeping a manual option for now.
My big worry is by the time I'm finally ready for a track toy Miata or Z, there wont be any manuals left in production.
I got my gladiator and a twin turbo 300zx both are equally as fun to drive or will be if I ever get the z off Jack standsI will secure my next 10-15 years of manual transmission daily driving when I pick up my JTR on Thursday. The list of family vehicles with sticks that will pull a trailer is very small and ever shrinking. My Volvo V70 has done an admirable job the past few years but I'm looking forward to the upgrade.
Wonāt comment on your wifeās driving skills other than to say Iāve one of those at home as well. As to the trucking comment, you are partially right. Large trucks are increasingly being speced with automatic shifting transmission, but these are dual clutch designs. A dual clutch is basically a planetary geared transmission where the clutch and mechanical shifting mechanism has been replaced with computer controlled solenoids. These are not hydraulic transmissions using torque converters and friction bands to change drive gearing.ā My wife canāt drive my car, which limits our transit optionsā Exactly how we want it to stay LOL. Itās the new engineering cultural shift. Next is Electric and then self driving cars. The big trucking companies are predominantly automatic now as well. Either we with the chance or we stay back
