how to drive an automatic transmission.
I don't have an automatic shifting gear box, I like to drive. I expect to slow with engine braking when I take my foot off the throttle. 
Some people might have need for a helping hand.
When shopping for a new vehicle, I tell the salesman, I don't know how to drive an automatic transmission.
I usually get a bug-eyed look from the salesman.
I have already had a Beetle years ago, what else have ya got ?
I can't buy it without all these automatic gizmo's ?
What happened to good, solid, basic transportation ?
Look how light-weight the steering parts are.
A year of driving on these chuck-holed streets will knock the wheels off.
Sure, the SUV's and trucks have heavier parts, yet they last longer. A car that parallel parks itself ? Really ? Knowing how to do that was part of the driving test when I took it.
