Nay Sire, but perhaps it aut to
G'Day all
What's the general consensus on Late model auto's V manuals for 4Wd's.I have done the High Country (NSW & Vic) fire trails with a Jeep auto and I have to say that I was impressed with the performance .Being an old codger I have always had manuals..but am looking at getting a newie soon and thinking about Auto this time.Does the Puma come with an auto?
Any advice appreciated.

What? You can still get manuals? I thought they went the same way as cross ply tyres.
If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
With the purchase of the D3 I was kind of forced to go with an auto if I didnt want the base model. After always having manuals I am surprised how good it is off road and can't think of a situation where I'd rather have a manual.

the only reason my county isn't an auto is the fact that it would be an impractical major exercise to link one up to the 4BD1
my d1 is a 300tdi auto and there's nothing I've wanted to do on- or off-road that wasn't easier (and equally economical) with the HP22 auto........
I have an auto V8 D2 and love it.
You can hold gear like a manual in low range or put it in D and let it go.
Great in the sand as well, no loss of momentum if you need to change gears.
I love the auto behind by Tdi Disco. Much easier (better?) in sand and very easy to creep along slowly on the rough stuff. No need to burn the clutch when reversing my caravan up hills either!
In my book auto is king!
puma doesnt come with an auto not as a stock aus spec that Im aware of anyway.
not entering the debate on manual vs auto (again)

If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.
Wish mine was still an auto, I agree it makes for a fantastic off road vehicle, except for downhill work
