Why is it car dealers always want to sell me an automatic? I state
specifically I want a standard transmission and they are all agape and
agog - are you sure?! They still try to show me automatics. No, I don't
want one. Yes, I'm sure. Why does that surprise them so much?

When I bought my Hyundai I picked the car out the night before, just as they
were closing up so there were no salesmen to come bug the crap out of me.
Went over the next day... this is the one I want. He was smart. No trying
to dissuade me out of a 5-speed. Test drove it, checked out all the
features. Yep, this is it. Thank you!
