I found a car identical to mine in the parking lot and decided to take a picture and sent it to my dad, who had bought the car for me. This was his response:

Dear Elaine,

These two cars are very similar in general. However, I find three difference (1) you car is two door for more sporty look, (2) your car has spoil at the back for aerodynamic, (3) your car has V6 powerful engine.

So, you car is more unique and this car is originally from either California or Arizona.

I like the pictures. It is very amusing.

Love,
Dad

Pauline:

Stay in semiautomatic. It saves the sweat. It is really annoying to drive in manual mode. Every 10 miles up or down one has to change the gear! On congested city streets and crowded highways, with constant stop and go, pickup and slowdown, one’s right hand will be tired in no time. Besides,
too busy with gear shifting reduces one’s alert on the coming traffic condition.

Modern automatic transmission has improved gas mileage quite a lot. There is absolute no advantage in using a manual one. The one who still insists is a bull with a twisted vanity.

In an ever more complex society one uses better and better tools to handle the conventional cores, so that one has time left to concentrate on the new ones. And it is how well one can handle the new ones that one is called a hero.

Dad
