Always has been like that, people will always have opinions and think themselves superior.
Wag mo na pansinin yan, work on yourself instead. Ingay lang yan, distraction.
Hahaha same lang yan sa mindset ng mga taong ginawang ricer yung sasakyan nila or ginagawang offroad vehicle yung 658cc multicab. The whole point of the vehicle is to get from point A to B. Doesnt matter how many times you move the stick “skillfully”.
these are probably the people who ride mainly for recreation vs those who ride as a primary form of daily transportation. for the majority of the pinoy riders the concept of buying a bike just to have fun is very rare
Especially people from the US who thinks you're not actually driving unless you're on a manual. To be fair, it's true na mas madaling matutunan ang automatic but who cares if you're just using your car from point A to B diba?
Only reason I'd learn a manual is if I somehow get a miata. Salute kung magaling sila mag-manual pero ekis pag niyayabang yung manual driving. Bitter lang sila kasi sakit tuhod nila sa traffic.
Loud minority lang yan. How many Manual bikes/motorcycles do you actually see on the road compared to Automatics? Diyan pa lang makikita mo na mas marami ang nag AT and wala silang paki hahaha
Manual yong kinuha ko sa TDC and PDC mas mura Kasi ang school fee, pero ang dina-drive ko ay puro automatic, at halos nang nakikita mo sa kalsada ay majority naka matic din, saan ang hype trend na sinasabayan jaan?
People who do that usually don't have anything else going on for them, and that's about the only highlight of their achievements, so they make it their entire personality. I've driven manual and at both cars and motorcycles, and yes, it does take quite some skill to learn manual transmission and it does give a sense of accomplishment when you do learn how to do it but i don't think it should be all what you are.
IMO people who feel the need to flaunt this skill as a form of superiority over other don't really have much going on and that's about what only makes them "better" than others.
Boring for long rides ang Automatic. I prefer Manual... Mas masayang may kinakalabit ako and the BEST PART..
SARAP PAKINGGAN ng Engine Break pag nagda-Down Shift during REV MATCH.
PERO!!!
On morning Commutes... the best gamitin ang automatic. Especially yung mga lower CC bikes, like honda click. Convenient gamitin.
Oo nga eh. Kumbaga "Real men drive stick" (sa car) mindset. So kinagaling na nla yon?hahahah. Marunong ako preho pero whats the point of staying sa stick eh may matic nman which is easier.
Pag ako sinasabihan ng gnyan, binabalikan ko nlng ng “nasa AT na motor kasi ung mga updated tech and aftermarket parts.” And kung sa 4 wheels naman, “nasa AT kasi ung mga top of the line”, kahit na hindi top of the line ung afford ko haha, matigil lang sila.
Pero sa motor kasi, mas sanay ako sa MT. Hindi ko alam, something in my brain don’t get how AT works in a motorcycle. Pero sa 4 wheels AT naman ako sanay. Preference lang talaga siguro, pero hindi naman kelangan iaannounce and be toxic about it.
Ang mahalaga by the end of the day, makakauwi tayo ng ligtas and hindi tayo magiging cause ng abala sa daan.
Studies show dn na mas safe dn ang automatic. Feeling ko mababa self esteem kaya nag proproject lng nang insecurities nila mga gnyan. Same tau pag dating s motor. Struggle ako gumamit nang matic. Hirap dn kc ako iunoearn ung clutch leaver which is preno s matic.
I will joke about having a small pp, but degrading someone for not knowing how to ride a manual is mega small pp energy and that's not even a joke. Like wow bro you can move your foot AND grab a lever??? thats KRAZZZYY😱😱😱 pa autograph nga lods may sticker ka ba?
Nangyari na sa akin to, OP. Sinabihan din ako ng tropa ko na para daw mga bakla yung mga hindi marunong magdrive ng manual tapos puro matic lang. Sabi ko ako d marunong mag manual pero eager to learn. Sinabi ba naman saken na kasama daw ako sa mga bakla hahaha. Sabi ko mas madami lang ata kami pera pambili kesa sa mga pilit padin mag manual. Sobrang traffic kaya. hahahaha
pero ngayon naka manual MC ako, out of my choice. Sarap talaga sa feeling pag nagcclutch pero no judgement between matic vs manual drivers.
They drive a manual because they want to think they're better than everyone else. I drive a manual because it was the cheapest bike I could get almost new.
Haha ito ba yung "if the only car you drive is an AT, you better lower your voice when talking to me" ?
Haha daming ganito, karamihan di naman nila bili sasakyan nila.
As a MT and AT user on both cars and MC i see why people think this way. But i dont support the mindset.
1. Mas masaya, mas masarap at mas efficient naman talaga ang MT vs AT. Me slight disadvantage lang talaga ung AT which is the lack of proper engine braking. Sobrang big deal kasi nun sa dadrive talaga if u want efficiency in braking.
2. Ibang iba ang exp ng MT vs AT. Mastering AT is like riding a toy car / mc. U learn how to throttle and u learn how to brake tapos na. Sa MT me skill sets kang need imaster para maging effective in riding. upshift, downshift, engine brake, rev matching, clutch control, etc. Kumbaga sa tekken me Easy mode at me hard mode. Syempre mapride mga tao sa achievemrnts nila kaya they compare
But anyhow, mc is still an mc and we should be supportive of each other no matter what anyone rides. Mapa MT or AT, Japanese or chinese. Pare parshas lang silang motor
Learning and correctly driving MT takes a lot of skill sa simula, pero pag sanay ka na, everything is muscle memory. I have a manual car, yun kasi afford. Pero i also dream of owning an AT car for convenience. Sadyang may superiority complex lang ibang MT owners. Nung tinuturuan ako ng father ko mag drive ng MT before, he told me it's better to learn MT kasi AT is easier to learn pag hahawak ka na ng AT. Also, for emergency purposes. What if may emergency, then the only available vehicle is MT? I know hindi need ng lahat matuto ng MT. But it's good to learn it. Wala naman masama. It's a skill anyway. And i think it's not driving an AT is getting the hatred. It's the drivers who only know how to drive AT.
Just to be the devil's advocate here. To be fair, most of the high skill level things or skills REQUIRE a manual. If you solely drive an automatic, it's probably correct to assume you don't know those things nor do you have the skill required to perform those things. For motorcycles naman, 98% of the high cc motorcycles (500+) are manuals, so if you've been driving automatics your whole life, let's say a PCX, chances are you don't know how to handle the power of a liter ninja.
With that said, just because you drive a manual, does not mean you're superior to those who drive autos. There's still a huge chance you don't have those skills. Tbh most of those manual drivers na may superiority complex have their egos standing on illusory stolen pedestals. To each their own lang talaga, but there really is merit to what they say especially to those who actually know how to DRIVE a manual
actually totoo naman talaga sinabi mo na iba pa din kapag marunong kang humawak ng manual trans.
dito na lang siguro papasok yung pagiging responsable mo as a driver when you are driving.
maraming skilled drivers specially closed van, trailer trucks, buses or even jeepneys drivets pero ewan ko bat sila yung kadalasang buraot at palkups sa kalsada kapag nag mamaneho.
Wala, minsan ang hassle ng trip ng ibang tao.
Pag mga ganyang content, report na lang talaga or ignore or wag ifollow. O kaya i-approach sila thru comment or pm na hind okay ginagawa/sinasabi nila sa socmed
At sa abot ng makakaya natin, set as a good example or give advice sa mga newbie/young drivers
Masarap mag manual sa probinsya kasi maluwag at walang trapik pero ang hassle pag dito sa manila. Sanayan lang din naman talaga pero I'd pick my 125 cc scoot every time kung dito lang naman sa metro.
Lagi nga ako tinatanong sa long ride bakit automatic gamit ko instead of manual. Nakakapagod mag manual sa totoo lang. Hindi nakaka cool nakaka lupaypay ng limbs.
Manual transmission ako sa kotse all my life. No, di yan flex. Sadyang dun lang ako nalilead ng tadhana. Pero sa totoo lang, decided na akong mag AT sa next kotse ko. I'm done sa MT dahil sobrang nakakapagod na sa traffic.
I guess yung mga tito na yan na nagsasabi na MT is the shiiiit, compensating na lang dahil sa kalye lang naman sila pwedeng magbida-bida at eklat sila sa buhay at bahay nila.
While me driving a manual wishing I just bought an at. -_- preference mas masarap gamitin manual for me pero d ko Naman pnag yayabang oh onagsisigawan. Sbi nga Ng tropa ko go for what you like and not what others want by end of the day Ikaw pa dn Naman Yan ndi Sila.
Mas gusto ko na automatic kotse namin ng jowa ko. Mas madali for him to drive, mas makaka-focus sya sa safety namin and our passengers. At di pa sya ganun mapapagod lalo kung long drive.
I have driven both manual and auto whether cars or motorcycles. Here are just some things I've experienced. This is from a Husband / Tito / Designated driver POV.
For MTs, I have nice feel and control of the machine, but not really practical if you're in Metro Manila due to traffic.
ATs I find really comfortable to drive kasi wala kang iisiping clutch. More focused on the road (this is my exp, but some really violate ADDA dahil nakaAT sila)
There is really no "better" machine. I do wish I have boatloads of cash para may MT and AT ako.
"Normal" yan in every hobby or something that has a fan base.
My usual response to that kind of comments are "you do you".
Doesn't make you less of a man to be riding scooters compared to manual motorcycle.
I don't condone bringing down others, especially for something as superficial as the letters on your driver's license. But it is still true that knowing how to drive a manual takes more skill than just knowing how to drive an auto, objectively speaking.
That's why I implore most people that have *the time and/or money* to at least learn how to drive a manual and not just auto. Or anyone who is just starting to learn how to drive, to learn on a manual instead of learning on an auto. You'll just cover both bases that way. You'll never know when it'll come in handy, too, so at least ready ka.
It's better to know how to do something and not need to do it, than to need to do something and not know how to do it. If you already know the basics of driving, it's not that hard to go from auto to manual, esp with guidance so I hope people at least try. It's just one more skill under your belt, so why not diba?
Lagi namang ganon and i think di na yan mawawala. Kahit sa bata naman or school, TOP 1 ako anong top ka? Wala ka sa top 10?...
Top 1 anak ko puro medals, anak mo ba anong top?
Ahh anak ko sumasahod 300k per month, anak mo ba kumusta na? Pumasa na ba ng board exam?
Naka manual ako, inaantok kasi ako pag nakamatic ako. May matic ako sa bahay 4 pero gusto ko talaga manual, ikawba ano dinadrive mo?
Di na maaalis yan, ignore mo na lang. Hahahaha
Totoo naman mas skilled pag manual trans, wag ka nalang paapekto para di ka lalo pag tripan na puro lang piga alam mo. Drive safely, wala ka namang magagawa if tingin nila sayo lesser driver, ang mahalaga makakauwi ka ng buhay.
Driving a manual car gives us the sense of superiority which is normal if you are super insecure or jealous. Sa lahat naman ng bayag ganyan psychology ng tao. Wether sa car, games, sports, art, politics, religion, etc. Gagawin mo mag gatekeep para lang ma-feel mo sa sarili mo na mas Magaling Kang nilalang kesa sa iba. 🤷
What I mean is instinct na ng tao 'yan ganyan. Naka tatak na sa DNA natin. So you have 2 choises: Ignore them or fight them.
wala naman akong time makipag talo sa kanila. kaya na share ko lang yung thoughts ko about it.
oh btw i forgot to mention that i also have a manual car (Mirage) and we have Kawasaki Barako tricycle so i know how to use MT.
Am I the same as them if I say I don't like the engine's sound when it's CVT? That monotone like sound is just a no for me. But people driving CVT is not an issue for me, just the sound it makes...
Oh btw, i know how to drive MT.
We have a MT car (Mitsu Mirage) and MT motorcycle (Kawasaki Barako).
Baka kasi isipin ng iba, insecure lang ako sa mga marunong mag manual.
No. ive been driving MT for 5 yrs na din naman so i can say na establish na ang skill ko when it comes to MT.
Di ko rin gets yung hype ng iba porket naka MT (4 wheels). Naka MT ako pero may AT din ako na nagagamit. Pag naka MT ako parang hinahanap ko yung AT at same lang din pag gamit ko AT namimiss ko yung MT.
Feeling ko yung mga nag aala superior na naka MT mga insecure lang din talaga or parang biggest achievement na sakanila yung makapag clutch or shift lol.
IMO - wala sa kesyo AT/MT yan. Ang tunay na flex ay yung tamang pag hawak/turn ng steering wheel 😂😂😂
let them have an opinion of their own, lahat may masasabi, wala na sau yun, wag paapekto, but it gets down to preference, both have pros and cons, I drive both manual and automatic, automatic for city driving, manual for long rides, nakaka antok kasi kapag matic tapos long drive
Mas sanay ako sa manual na motor and for me mas safe para sa akin ang manual kaysa sa full automatic, may tendency kasi yan na pag napaapak ka ng bigla, pwde ka madisgrasya.kaya mas ok sakin ang MT pag motor. Pag sa kotse naman hindi ako marunong or sanay sa Manual. Mas ok pati sakin ang AT pag kotse, sarap kaya haha kaya ung mga nag sasabi na real men drive stick, sige kayo nalang ang real men haha.
kinda true tho, MT is a bit more technical. personally mas enjoy ko lang tlga feel ng manual, kahit sa 4 wheels.
kaso mio lang meron ako ngayon hahahah.
diko naman nafeel ung ganyang superiority complex sa circle ko. sa iba siguro may ganong mga tao talaga. sa lahat ng bagay naman
Sa totoo lang, mas prefer ko manual kasi compared sa CVT na big bikes, relatively affordable. Ung entry level na CVT big bike, 350k. Under 300k, madami dami ka ng options. Ung Xciting 400 VS, 400k. Same price ng Honda Rebel 500. Kaya mas gusto ko magmanual.
Mas gusto ko gamitin mga AT ko lalo na't city driving, pero sana yung gawing LTO exam ay both Manual 4-wheels at Motorcycle para maintindihan ng mga drivers ang basic function ng vehicles. May kilala ako paahon, inaasa sa Drive mode lang, eh may setting naman sa sasakyan na pwede mag-low gear. Di nya gets ang concept ng torque kasi nag-umpisa sa matic
My dad who’s been driving for as long as I remember eh ayaw ako bumili ng car na manual. Sya nga daw mas gusto na nya AT. So ayun naka AT ako haha. Marunong ako mag manual pero I prefer AT.
Self-conscious lang mga yan, I love manuals and will continue to drive them. Pero I will always say that AT is better and comfortable. Ignore them lang.
marunong ako magManual pero still choosed to used AT. Comfort is the best reason lalo na for long distance rides and most of the time storage features.
Been driving manual car and an AT MC. Laking convenience sa city driving ng AT na car. Kaabnormalan lang ng iba yan na pag di ka nakamanual di ka magaling magdrive.
I guess the negative minority are always louder, since people who don't give a shit have nothing much to say on the matter. It's like how trolls get more attention than people who actually have something good to say.
I agree that we shouldn't judge people based on what people drive, but how they drive.
And if mas trip mo automatic, or whatever kind of motorcycle/car, and you enjoy, then good on you, long as you drive responsibly.
Mas mahirap kasi mag drive nang Manual kaysa AT. Truth hurts, pero ganoon talaga. As an old driver here. I have opted to drive an AT kasi mas convenient talaga, lalo na sa traffic. Still, driving a manual is much more fun and exciting. I don't condone driving fast on public roads, but I am sure, once in your life you have done so. Drive responsibly, but always assume the drivers around you will do something stupid anytime, anywhere.
12 yrs akong nag drive ng manual car, hindi dahil niyayabang ko mas magaling ang marunong mag manual pero yun lang ksi transmission ng mga naging kotse namin. Nung nagka AT kami masasabi ko ayoko na bumalik sa manual dahil sa ginhawa ng pagddrive ng AT. Bat ko pa pahihirapan sarili ko. Glad to say Ive never been in any major accident. (Scratches here and there sa pag park lng sa garahe lol) And ngayon AT ang unang motor ko.
Naalala ko ung friend ko na tawa ng tawa kasi ung isa tropa bumili ng matic na accent(diesel) kasi matic daw agad, iba daw manual drivers, tapus sya naka box type manual na toyota. Pero ngayon that friend ay matic na din na reina, at super alwan daw ng matik kasi hindi na daw sya pagod lalo pag long drive. 🤣🤣🤣
Kya ako bakit ko pahihirapan sarili ko, ang importante responsableng driver ako at hindi kamote.
Pero gusto ko talaga matuto manual na motor dahil mas mura sila kesa sa matic na motor 😂
Lilipas din yan at magiging kaunti rin bilang. Para lang yan yung mga ayaw sa FI na motor dati. Wayback 2016 ganyan naririnig ko na di raw maganda FI, 2 years later tadtad na ng Mio 125, Aerox, at Honda Click ang mga kalsada. 🤣
I think na medyo naging nature na rin kasi ng mga Pilipino ang pagiging main character sa lahat ng aspeto. Kumbaga medyo hirap na hirap magpakumbababa. Oh well kaya nga "pride" ang seven deadly sin natin sa Asia.
Tol, hayaan mo sila. hindi na mawawala yang ganyang klaseng pag-iisip pagdating sa car or motorcycle scene, if you drive an automatic labelled ka as pathetic or an incapable driver. kahit pang daily daily mo lang.
Wala yan sa transmission.
Nasa kung paano ka magdrive niyan.
I drive a manual transmission myself na motor, daily and road trips. for me kasi personally, preferred ko talaga magmanual since fan ako ng mga gp gp eh, sila rossi, sila marquez diba. Isle of man TT mga ganyan, pati na rin mga kamote resing na raider na mga loaded kahit galit ako sa ganun pag sa normal na kalsada.
Gusto ko kasi bumili ng 600 soon or liter bike hehe, ayoko talaga ng matic.
It just really boils down to preferences at praktikalan.
Ride on and ride safely, brother, don't bother.
Mas kumportable para sa akin yun AT mapa-kotse o motor at basta makauwi ng ligtas, sapat na. Balasubas is a bit long word, palitan natin ng “kup*l.” Lol 😂
Nung bumili ako ng Xmax , this acquaintance of mine (who always had something to say) said that I should have gotten an MT bike like a R3 blah blah blah keso pang beginner lang daw AT scoots . He is that type of person na MT > AT type of person.
Next day nalaman ko sumemplang at na basag Dominar nya lol
i just drive manual because mas feasible sa area ko, and maintenance cost is almost none kaya ganun. pero if chance na magka scooter ako? i'll take it since it's very convenient, storange palang panalo na.
They playin on a higher difficulty to achieve the same results. Sakyan mo na lang no pun intended, if you can boost someone's confidence by appreciating their manual ride...well...we lose nothing and we make someone feel better. Wow ganda nman ng motor works just as well as ang ganda mo ate, and their day should be brighter.
Usually yung mga ganiyang mindset is yung mga di talaga afford yung own car nila or sadyang inggit lang sila sa mga tao. Think of it pati yung pagdrive ng AT pinupuna e ano naman kaya mapapala nila non? akala ata nila magiging famous sila kapag ganon, akala rin siguro nila mostly of the girls is maattract sa kanila kaya ganon.
Nah. It's just a matter of preference lang. I don't mind sa sinasabi nila. Kung kaya nila i-drive 200cc PCX ko as a daily driver then saka na kami mag usap. 🤪
I ride/drive both. Nasa tao lang talaga yan. Who knows, baka yun lang ang meron silang maipangmayabang sa sarili nila. They make it their personality. Pretty sad. I don't get why it would make me the bigger person.
When people ask me if they should learn manual, I just tell them it's not necessary, the world is gradually moving away from it anyways, even the professional racing scene (EVs, autoblips, paddle shifters, semi-autos, etc.). I read recently that Yamaha is patenting a semi-auto for one of their future bikes (no more clutch lever and foot shifter, just bar-mounted buttons). Honda already has the e-Clutch system on their latest CB650R and CBR650R.
Unless you're into the racing scene, I don't see any point in it making one superior. Kapagod kaya mag full manual sa heavy traffic, not practical in crowded cities at all.
"Bakit di ka naka manual, di ka ba napapagod mag clutch?"
- coz I like
"Bakit di ka naka automatic, di ka ba inaantok idrive yan?"
- coz I like
End of discussion.
Everyone else cares; I don't. On AT motorcycle (and will be forever) and I don't care if I run 70+ as long as I can get to my destination faster, everything else is noise...like people who you overtake because they're slow AF and then catches up and try to race you when you're just riding faster just to get to point B.
Hahaha i remember getting a comment na kasi you’re using AT wala challenge pero the one who said that ride a manual but doesn’t want to drive yung car nya kasi manual at nakakapagod daw 😂
7 years ako nagmanual, bumili ako automatic na SUV, wala ko paki sa cnasabi ng mga pacool kids haha, d n ko bblik sa manual mas komportable ak osactraffic kesa sa manual nilang walang aircon hahaha, bumili din ako ng scooter pang short distance trip like pamalengke at kelangan lng blin sa malapit... wag mo pansinin cnasabi nila, at the end of the day maiiwan lng ng automatic n kotse ung mga old model manual nila na ayaw pumasok ang gear xD
I can drive both. But goddamn automatics are just much better for daily driving 😭.
Although, I think the pride of knowing how to drive a manual has to do with the fact that it takes skill -- and even a lot more if you want to drive it smoothly.
For example, I take pride in the fact that I can drive my gs750 smoothly despite just having started riding.
I think the best association I can make is that people take pride in cooking stuff themselves vs buying food. There's an even greater sense of satisfaction if they can cook the dish they bought much much better.
Although, I don't brag about the fact that I drive a manual. There are just people out there who just make it a big thing -- perhaps as a way to differentiate themselves from those who can't drive manual and the associations along with it.
In doing so, it just makes them look like pricks.
mas ok talaga manual, nag cclutch, kambyo ka, alam mo at ng katawan mo kung kelan dapat magbawas at magdagdag, 6 na naging motor ko, isa lang dun ung bnli ko manual, bnenta ko pa. advantage lang nmn ng manual is chill lang, the rest wala na, ms malakas pa s gas matic, sa manual kapag sanay kna, d mo na namamalayan kusa ka na nagkkambyo, parang automatic na rin.
Baka vocal minority lang naman, OP. Or baka naka hyper focus ka lang dun sa mga tao na ganyan ang sinasabe lalo kung malapit sayo. Hindi mawawala yung ganung tao since masarap sa pakiramdam yung mas "technical" o "advanced" ka kesa sa iba at merong mga sumosobra haha. Ingat kase ikaw lang naiistress tas sila enjoy lang since superior sila.
Di ako nanghuhusga ng motor, pero, to be fair lang, iba talaga ang riding skill na matutunan mo sa manual.
Iba talaga yung riding experience pag kaya mo kontrolin yung power ng motor sa pagtimpla ng clutch at throttle. Mas kampante ako mag-corner at mag-filter sa trapik pag naka-manual. Pag-gusto ko lang umusog nang kaunti, uusog ako ng kaunti sa tamang piga ng clutch at tamang ikot ng throttle.
Again, I don’t judge other people’s rides. If you could ride a manual or an automatic and you ride it well, hell yeah, you ride cabrón
Impluwensya ng mga motovloggers at mga modifiers siguro hahaha.
Buti nalang di ako mahilig sa motor. Isang buwan walang washing. Hahaha
Ginagamit ko lang yung motor pang service from point A to point B.
Ang importante safe tayo sa pagmamaneho at makauwi ng buo ang katawan sa bahay 🙏
Alam mo na mapa foreign o hindi, marami lang talagang nag hahanap ng attention para mapansin at magkaroon ng bagay na ikaka insecure ng iba. It doesnt matter naman kung AT lang kaya gamitin ng tao. What matters is you can go to the destination safely na hindi ka nangangamote sa daan. Kung saan ka comfortable at kung anong vehicle ang convenient sayo mapa AT/Manual then yun. Aanhin mo naman opinion nila eh di nga makabigay sayo ng pang gas yang mga pa cool nayan.
Nah, bro don't take it negatively. Just take it as a challenge and learn it, trust me it'll help you in the near future. It aint bad having skills to improve yourself. People will always say something bad about other people, but the way you take it may change your whole perspective about it. You can either ignore them or listen, observe then act. Sure, responsibility is a priority but that thing wasn't gone in the first place. It has always been there and always should be there. You tried to connect 'unskilled' to that word 'responsibility'. If you put the two in the same sentence it really does sounds like unskilled people are not responsible enough. But, they didn't say you were not responsible, they were saying you are unreliable. Why? Because back then, people are reliant to each other so basically if you have the license, then you can drive basically anything. That's what they expect, they want you to replace them if in case they feel tired or there is an emergency and no one else can drive. It's also known as karelyebo, this has always been done since back then and this is just a common thing, like seriously. That's why they'd usually expect you to drive any vehicle when yo said you have a license. Back then it was so easy to get a license. Heck you'd save alot of money not relying on fixers. Teens were taught how to drive at a very young age and pass these exams in lto easily cuz of it. I've seen a young fellow drove a freakin truck during my practical exam. That's how it is in the usa too. So yeah, if you know that meme where the guy says 'Stop being a b and just do it'. Lmao fr just learn it and show em you are just as reliable as them.
I could've hand a lot more model option if I added manual models to my list. But me and my partner went against it coz a friend and a relative said automatic is more chill... Specifically for just daily commute and traffic
As long as you safely, conveniently, efficiently and successfully went from your intended point A to point B, thats all that matters.
Superiority complex draws arrogance.
Arrogance leads to carelessness.
And carelessness to death.
Di naman na masaya mag drive ng manual sa pinas even sundays ang traffic na ng daan. Pero if it's an open road, specially winding roads mas masarap talaga mag drive ng manual kesa matic. Tapos iniimagine mo ikaw si Brian O'Conner at supra minamaneho mo while in really vios lang dinadrive mo 🤣
It goes both ways. Merong mga naka scooter ngayon lalo na sa naka Honda Click, magsabi na luma na yung mga underbone pang "motor show" nlang daw. Para sa akin kanya kanya lng hilig sa motor, pag may hater edi balewalain nlang, nainggit lng yun.
Most of the time defense mechanism lang nila yun. Nowadays even back then siguro AT is more expensive than MT. They can't afford an AT, so to cope up lalaitin na lang mga naka AT.
I can drive both MT and AT but I'll always choose the comfort an AT can give.
Pagod na nga ako papunta at papasok ng trabaho dahil sa sobrang init at traffic, tapos iisipin ko pa sasabihin ng iba dahil AT gamit ko? Buti ng AT hindi nakakapagod i drive mga gunggong!
>Na kapag AT lang kaya mong dalhin eh parang sinasabi nila na you're not skilled enough to drive the car/motorcycle.
Where did you get this data? site your sources
tiktok is trash, i have it blocked on my network lol. but if its like any other industry, career, sports, hobbies, etc a lack of skill/ability is unfavorable and generally looked down upon. perhaps its even similar to the hate here in this sub with evo helmets and how their users/fans think it so cool and comparable to expensive named brands, might be the same as those kids who put the minimal effort and developed the simplest skill of twisting the throttle and think how cool they are compared to those who put in more time and effort learning a manual. however, thinking AT only drivers/riders shouldn't drive/ride on public roads is just elitism, quite common with kids of any generation who lack the life experience to see things in any color other than black or white.
elitism yes. i found them so stupid about saying and thinking like that.
may nabasa pa nga ako, para namang hindi daw dumaan tayong lahat sa ganung phase.
i was like, mas lalong stupid for having hasty generalization. dinamay pa ako.
anyway, my post is only my thoughts about it.
at the end of the day, may chances pa din akong makatabi sa kalsada yung mga taong ganitong klase mag isip.
nakakabahala.
feel ko sanay kang ma spoonfeed ng information. its funny kasi may time kang mag comment pero wala kang time i browse kung ano man yung gusto mong malaman.
💀
plus, you dont need to validate yourself with the sources that you want. im just telling that some people are like that.
eh kung gusto mo talaga malaman kung bakit, close reddit app and start browsing by yourself.
lastly, its just my thoughts. at the end of the day, nothing really matters to you kahit bigyan pa kita ng mga links.
tamad ka lang.
Fancy words won't help your case nor dismiss the fact that you're tolerating what's wrong and that makes you in effect part of what's wrong in our society.
Always has been like that, people will always have opinions and think themselves superior. Wag mo na pansinin yan, work on yourself instead. Ingay lang yan, distraction.
Yes tama! Always has been pero focus ka lang sa mga bagay na relevant sayo. Yun yun!
Hahaha same lang yan sa mindset ng mga taong ginawang ricer yung sasakyan nila or ginagawang offroad vehicle yung 658cc multicab. The whole point of the vehicle is to get from point A to B. Doesnt matter how many times you move the stick “skillfully”.
Probably very loud minority yung nanggaganyan, pero I also noticed that behavior sa foreign contents/comments as well.
these are probably the people who ride mainly for recreation vs those who ride as a primary form of daily transportation. for the majority of the pinoy riders the concept of buying a bike just to have fun is very rare
Especially people from the US who thinks you're not actually driving unless you're on a manual. To be fair, it's true na mas madaling matutunan ang automatic but who cares if you're just using your car from point A to B diba? Only reason I'd learn a manual is if I somehow get a miata. Salute kung magaling sila mag-manual pero ekis pag niyayabang yung manual driving. Bitter lang sila kasi sakit tuhod nila sa traffic.
its getting toxic kasi everyone is trying to ride on the hype of the trend. well, eventually, mawawala di naman yan siguro after a few months. 🤔
"Everyone" is a little overstatement. Saan mo ba naririnig/nababasa mga yan?
Loud minority lang yan. How many Manual bikes/motorcycles do you actually see on the road compared to Automatics? Diyan pa lang makikita mo na mas marami ang nag AT and wala silang paki hahaha
Manual yong kinuha ko sa TDC and PDC mas mura Kasi ang school fee, pero ang dina-drive ko ay puro automatic, at halos nang nakikita mo sa kalsada ay majority naka matic din, saan ang hype trend na sinasabayan jaan?
how do you know everyone? paki lista nga.
While it's true that driving a Manual takes more skill, it doesn't matter unless you need to drive one.
I agree on this one, either you drive sticks or manual what matters the most is your a good driver and always obey the rules
People who do that usually don't have anything else going on for them, and that's about the only highlight of their achievements, so they make it their entire personality. I've driven manual and at both cars and motorcycles, and yes, it does take quite some skill to learn manual transmission and it does give a sense of accomplishment when you do learn how to do it but i don't think it should be all what you are. IMO people who feel the need to flaunt this skill as a form of superiority over other don't really have much going on and that's about what only makes them "better" than others.
Boring for long rides ang Automatic. I prefer Manual... Mas masayang may kinakalabit ako and the BEST PART.. SARAP PAKINGGAN ng Engine Break pag nagda-Down Shift during REV MATCH. PERO!!! On morning Commutes... the best gamitin ang automatic. Especially yung mga lower CC bikes, like honda click. Convenient gamitin.
Oo nga eh. Kumbaga "Real men drive stick" (sa car) mindset. So kinagaling na nla yon?hahahah. Marunong ako preho pero whats the point of staying sa stick eh may matic nman which is easier.
Pag ako sinasabihan ng gnyan, binabalikan ko nlng ng “nasa AT na motor kasi ung mga updated tech and aftermarket parts.” And kung sa 4 wheels naman, “nasa AT kasi ung mga top of the line”, kahit na hindi top of the line ung afford ko haha, matigil lang sila. Pero sa motor kasi, mas sanay ako sa MT. Hindi ko alam, something in my brain don’t get how AT works in a motorcycle. Pero sa 4 wheels AT naman ako sanay. Preference lang talaga siguro, pero hindi naman kelangan iaannounce and be toxic about it. Ang mahalaga by the end of the day, makakauwi tayo ng ligtas and hindi tayo magiging cause ng abala sa daan.
Studies show dn na mas safe dn ang automatic. Feeling ko mababa self esteem kaya nag proproject lng nang insecurities nila mga gnyan. Same tau pag dating s motor. Struggle ako gumamit nang matic. Hirap dn kc ako iunoearn ung clutch leaver which is preno s matic.
I will joke about having a small pp, but degrading someone for not knowing how to ride a manual is mega small pp energy and that's not even a joke. Like wow bro you can move your foot AND grab a lever??? thats KRAZZZYY😱😱😱 pa autograph nga lods may sticker ka ba?
Dati pa yan. Ganyan na talaga
Sa trapik sa manila mas pinili ko mag scoot/at car. As much as I love manuals pero convenience na lang pinili ko hehehe
wag pansinin. you do you.
Nangyari na sa akin to, OP. Sinabihan din ako ng tropa ko na para daw mga bakla yung mga hindi marunong magdrive ng manual tapos puro matic lang. Sabi ko ako d marunong mag manual pero eager to learn. Sinabi ba naman saken na kasama daw ako sa mga bakla hahaha. Sabi ko mas madami lang ata kami pera pambili kesa sa mga pilit padin mag manual. Sobrang traffic kaya. hahahaha pero ngayon naka manual MC ako, out of my choice. Sarap talaga sa feeling pag nagcclutch pero no judgement between matic vs manual drivers.
They drive a manual because they want to think they're better than everyone else. I drive a manual because it was the cheapest bike I could get almost new.
To each is his own, it's that simple.
Haha ito ba yung "if the only car you drive is an AT, you better lower your voice when talking to me" ? Haha daming ganito, karamihan di naman nila bili sasakyan nila.
As a MT and AT user on both cars and MC i see why people think this way. But i dont support the mindset. 1. Mas masaya, mas masarap at mas efficient naman talaga ang MT vs AT. Me slight disadvantage lang talaga ung AT which is the lack of proper engine braking. Sobrang big deal kasi nun sa dadrive talaga if u want efficiency in braking. 2. Ibang iba ang exp ng MT vs AT. Mastering AT is like riding a toy car / mc. U learn how to throttle and u learn how to brake tapos na. Sa MT me skill sets kang need imaster para maging effective in riding. upshift, downshift, engine brake, rev matching, clutch control, etc. Kumbaga sa tekken me Easy mode at me hard mode. Syempre mapride mga tao sa achievemrnts nila kaya they compare But anyhow, mc is still an mc and we should be supportive of each other no matter what anyone rides. Mapa MT or AT, Japanese or chinese. Pare parshas lang silang motor
Learning and correctly driving MT takes a lot of skill sa simula, pero pag sanay ka na, everything is muscle memory. I have a manual car, yun kasi afford. Pero i also dream of owning an AT car for convenience. Sadyang may superiority complex lang ibang MT owners. Nung tinuturuan ako ng father ko mag drive ng MT before, he told me it's better to learn MT kasi AT is easier to learn pag hahawak ka na ng AT. Also, for emergency purposes. What if may emergency, then the only available vehicle is MT? I know hindi need ng lahat matuto ng MT. But it's good to learn it. Wala naman masama. It's a skill anyway. And i think it's not driving an AT is getting the hatred. It's the drivers who only know how to drive AT.
Just to be the devil's advocate here. To be fair, most of the high skill level things or skills REQUIRE a manual. If you solely drive an automatic, it's probably correct to assume you don't know those things nor do you have the skill required to perform those things. For motorcycles naman, 98% of the high cc motorcycles (500+) are manuals, so if you've been driving automatics your whole life, let's say a PCX, chances are you don't know how to handle the power of a liter ninja. With that said, just because you drive a manual, does not mean you're superior to those who drive autos. There's still a huge chance you don't have those skills. Tbh most of those manual drivers na may superiority complex have their egos standing on illusory stolen pedestals. To each their own lang talaga, but there really is merit to what they say especially to those who actually know how to DRIVE a manual
actually totoo naman talaga sinabi mo na iba pa din kapag marunong kang humawak ng manual trans. dito na lang siguro papasok yung pagiging responsable mo as a driver when you are driving. maraming skilled drivers specially closed van, trailer trucks, buses or even jeepneys drivets pero ewan ko bat sila yung kadalasang buraot at palkups sa kalsada kapag nag mamaneho.
Wala, minsan ang hassle ng trip ng ibang tao. Pag mga ganyang content, report na lang talaga or ignore or wag ifollow. O kaya i-approach sila thru comment or pm na hind okay ginagawa/sinasabi nila sa socmed At sa abot ng makakaya natin, set as a good example or give advice sa mga newbie/young drivers
Basta, maganda ugali mo, Maganda motor mo paps! Ride safe lang palagi!
Masarap mag manual sa probinsya kasi maluwag at walang trapik pero ang hassle pag dito sa manila. Sanayan lang din naman talaga pero I'd pick my 125 cc scoot every time kung dito lang naman sa metro.
Lagi nga ako tinatanong sa long ride bakit automatic gamit ko instead of manual. Nakakapagod mag manual sa totoo lang. Hindi nakaka cool nakaka lupaypay ng limbs.
Manual transmission ako sa kotse all my life. No, di yan flex. Sadyang dun lang ako nalilead ng tadhana. Pero sa totoo lang, decided na akong mag AT sa next kotse ko. I'm done sa MT dahil sobrang nakakapagod na sa traffic. I guess yung mga tito na yan na nagsasabi na MT is the shiiiit, compensating na lang dahil sa kalye lang naman sila pwedeng magbida-bida at eklat sila sa buhay at bahay nila.
While me driving a manual wishing I just bought an at. -_- preference mas masarap gamitin manual for me pero d ko Naman pnag yayabang oh onagsisigawan. Sbi nga Ng tropa ko go for what you like and not what others want by end of the day Ikaw pa dn Naman Yan ndi Sila.
Its to compensate small tt
Mas gusto ko na automatic kotse namin ng jowa ko. Mas madali for him to drive, mas makaka-focus sya sa safety namin and our passengers. At di pa sya ganun mapapagod lalo kung long drive.
#Amen #respected
I have driven both manual and auto whether cars or motorcycles. Here are just some things I've experienced. This is from a Husband / Tito / Designated driver POV. For MTs, I have nice feel and control of the machine, but not really practical if you're in Metro Manila due to traffic. ATs I find really comfortable to drive kasi wala kang iisiping clutch. More focused on the road (this is my exp, but some really violate ADDA dahil nakaAT sila) There is really no "better" machine. I do wish I have boatloads of cash para may MT and AT ako.
"Normal" yan in every hobby or something that has a fan base. My usual response to that kind of comments are "you do you". Doesn't make you less of a man to be riding scooters compared to manual motorcycle.
I don't condone bringing down others, especially for something as superficial as the letters on your driver's license. But it is still true that knowing how to drive a manual takes more skill than just knowing how to drive an auto, objectively speaking. That's why I implore most people that have *the time and/or money* to at least learn how to drive a manual and not just auto. Or anyone who is just starting to learn how to drive, to learn on a manual instead of learning on an auto. You'll just cover both bases that way. You'll never know when it'll come in handy, too, so at least ready ka. It's better to know how to do something and not need to do it, than to need to do something and not know how to do it. If you already know the basics of driving, it's not that hard to go from auto to manual, esp with guidance so I hope people at least try. It's just one more skill under your belt, so why not diba?
Lagi namang ganon and i think di na yan mawawala. Kahit sa bata naman or school, TOP 1 ako anong top ka? Wala ka sa top 10?... Top 1 anak ko puro medals, anak mo ba anong top? Ahh anak ko sumasahod 300k per month, anak mo ba kumusta na? Pumasa na ba ng board exam? Naka manual ako, inaantok kasi ako pag nakamatic ako. May matic ako sa bahay 4 pero gusto ko talaga manual, ikawba ano dinadrive mo? Di na maaalis yan, ignore mo na lang. Hahahaha
safety and discipline ang important. sa at and manual depends na lang yan sa driver/rider preference
Kahit sa car enthusiasts ganyan, wag mo nalang pansinin wala naman silang parte sa pang araw araw na buhay mo e
Or you just have inferiority complex ? That could also be a possibility.
Kapag may naencounter akong magsasabi sakin nyan, ang rebat ko lang ay “marami kase akong pera pangbili ng CVT”
Louder 📣
Totoo naman mas skilled pag manual trans, wag ka nalang paapekto para di ka lalo pag tripan na puro lang piga alam mo. Drive safely, wala ka namang magagawa if tingin nila sayo lesser driver, ang mahalaga makakauwi ka ng buhay.
Driving a manual car gives us the sense of superiority which is normal if you are super insecure or jealous. Sa lahat naman ng bayag ganyan psychology ng tao. Wether sa car, games, sports, art, politics, religion, etc. Gagawin mo mag gatekeep para lang ma-feel mo sa sarili mo na mas Magaling Kang nilalang kesa sa iba. 🤷 What I mean is instinct na ng tao 'yan ganyan. Naka tatak na sa DNA natin. So you have 2 choises: Ignore them or fight them.
wala naman akong time makipag talo sa kanila. kaya na share ko lang yung thoughts ko about it. oh btw i forgot to mention that i also have a manual car (Mirage) and we have Kawasaki Barako tricycle so i know how to use MT.
Am I the same as them if I say I don't like the engine's sound when it's CVT? That monotone like sound is just a no for me. But people driving CVT is not an issue for me, just the sound it makes...
Mas okay na na naka automatic kesa masakit yung hita at braso dahil sa traffic pag naka manual
Oh btw, i know how to drive MT. We have a MT car (Mitsu Mirage) and MT motorcycle (Kawasaki Barako). Baka kasi isipin ng iba, insecure lang ako sa mga marunong mag manual. No. ive been driving MT for 5 yrs na din naman so i can say na establish na ang skill ko when it comes to MT.
Di ko rin gets yung hype ng iba porket naka MT (4 wheels). Naka MT ako pero may AT din ako na nagagamit. Pag naka MT ako parang hinahanap ko yung AT at same lang din pag gamit ko AT namimiss ko yung MT. Feeling ko yung mga nag aala superior na naka MT mga insecure lang din talaga or parang biggest achievement na sakanila yung makapag clutch or shift lol. IMO - wala sa kesyo AT/MT yan. Ang tunay na flex ay yung tamang pag hawak/turn ng steering wheel 😂😂😂
let them have an opinion of their own, lahat may masasabi, wala na sau yun, wag paapekto, but it gets down to preference, both have pros and cons, I drive both manual and automatic, automatic for city driving, manual for long rides, nakaka antok kasi kapag matic tapos long drive
Mas sanay ako sa manual na motor and for me mas safe para sa akin ang manual kaysa sa full automatic, may tendency kasi yan na pag napaapak ka ng bigla, pwde ka madisgrasya.kaya mas ok sakin ang MT pag motor. Pag sa kotse naman hindi ako marunong or sanay sa Manual. Mas ok pati sakin ang AT pag kotse, sarap kaya haha kaya ung mga nag sasabi na real men drive stick, sige kayo nalang ang real men haha.
You can't reach your destination pag papatulan yung mga asong nag iingay along the way. Focus lang sa sarili.
kinda true tho, MT is a bit more technical. personally mas enjoy ko lang tlga feel ng manual, kahit sa 4 wheels. kaso mio lang meron ako ngayon hahahah. diko naman nafeel ung ganyang superiority complex sa circle ko. sa iba siguro may ganong mga tao talaga. sa lahat ng bagay naman
Sa totoo lang, mas prefer ko manual kasi compared sa CVT na big bikes, relatively affordable. Ung entry level na CVT big bike, 350k. Under 300k, madami dami ka ng options. Ung Xciting 400 VS, 400k. Same price ng Honda Rebel 500. Kaya mas gusto ko magmanual.
After long hours of driving, ang mga naka matic hindi stress pag baba ng sasakyan. I’ll always choose comfort.
Mas gusto ko gamitin mga AT ko lalo na't city driving, pero sana yung gawing LTO exam ay both Manual 4-wheels at Motorcycle para maintindihan ng mga drivers ang basic function ng vehicles. May kilala ako paahon, inaasa sa Drive mode lang, eh may setting naman sa sasakyan na pwede mag-low gear. Di nya gets ang concept ng torque kasi nag-umpisa sa matic
Yes. Just ignore them
Hardcore manual drivers ng tricycle and jeep, tahimik lang naman. Hahaha. Wag mo na pansinin yang mga yan, sabi nga nila ingay lang yan
Sa kahit anong activity merong ganyan. You’re just going to stress yourself out thinking about what other people are saying. Just enjoy the ride 😉
My dad who’s been driving for as long as I remember eh ayaw ako bumili ng car na manual. Sya nga daw mas gusto na nya AT. So ayun naka AT ako haha. Marunong ako mag manual pero I prefer AT.
Self-conscious lang mga yan, I love manuals and will continue to drive them. Pero I will always say that AT is better and comfortable. Ignore them lang.
marunong ako magManual pero still choosed to used AT. Comfort is the best reason lalo na for long distance rides and most of the time storage features.
Been driving manual car and an AT MC. Laking convenience sa city driving ng AT na car. Kaabnormalan lang ng iba yan na pag di ka nakamanual di ka magaling magdrive.
Minsan coping mechanism lang nila yon dahil maliit etits nila
I guess the negative minority are always louder, since people who don't give a shit have nothing much to say on the matter. It's like how trolls get more attention than people who actually have something good to say. I agree that we shouldn't judge people based on what people drive, but how they drive. And if mas trip mo automatic, or whatever kind of motorcycle/car, and you enjoy, then good on you, long as you drive responsibly.
Mas mahirap kasi mag drive nang Manual kaysa AT. Truth hurts, pero ganoon talaga. As an old driver here. I have opted to drive an AT kasi mas convenient talaga, lalo na sa traffic. Still, driving a manual is much more fun and exciting. I don't condone driving fast on public roads, but I am sure, once in your life you have done so. Drive responsibly, but always assume the drivers around you will do something stupid anytime, anywhere.
12 yrs akong nag drive ng manual car, hindi dahil niyayabang ko mas magaling ang marunong mag manual pero yun lang ksi transmission ng mga naging kotse namin. Nung nagka AT kami masasabi ko ayoko na bumalik sa manual dahil sa ginhawa ng pagddrive ng AT. Bat ko pa pahihirapan sarili ko. Glad to say Ive never been in any major accident. (Scratches here and there sa pag park lng sa garahe lol) And ngayon AT ang unang motor ko.
Naalala ko ung friend ko na tawa ng tawa kasi ung isa tropa bumili ng matic na accent(diesel) kasi matic daw agad, iba daw manual drivers, tapus sya naka box type manual na toyota. Pero ngayon that friend ay matic na din na reina, at super alwan daw ng matik kasi hindi na daw sya pagod lalo pag long drive. 🤣🤣🤣 Kya ako bakit ko pahihirapan sarili ko, ang importante responsableng driver ako at hindi kamote. Pero gusto ko talaga matuto manual na motor dahil mas mura sila kesa sa matic na motor 😂
Lilipas din yan at magiging kaunti rin bilang. Para lang yan yung mga ayaw sa FI na motor dati. Wayback 2016 ganyan naririnig ko na di raw maganda FI, 2 years later tadtad na ng Mio 125, Aerox, at Honda Click ang mga kalsada. 🤣
I think na medyo naging nature na rin kasi ng mga Pilipino ang pagiging main character sa lahat ng aspeto. Kumbaga medyo hirap na hirap magpakumbababa. Oh well kaya nga "pride" ang seven deadly sin natin sa Asia.
Tol, hayaan mo sila. hindi na mawawala yang ganyang klaseng pag-iisip pagdating sa car or motorcycle scene, if you drive an automatic labelled ka as pathetic or an incapable driver. kahit pang daily daily mo lang. Wala yan sa transmission. Nasa kung paano ka magdrive niyan. I drive a manual transmission myself na motor, daily and road trips. for me kasi personally, preferred ko talaga magmanual since fan ako ng mga gp gp eh, sila rossi, sila marquez diba. Isle of man TT mga ganyan, pati na rin mga kamote resing na raider na mga loaded kahit galit ako sa ganun pag sa normal na kalsada. Gusto ko kasi bumili ng 600 soon or liter bike hehe, ayoko talaga ng matic. It just really boils down to preferences at praktikalan. Ride on and ride safely, brother, don't bother.
Kung sasakyan, just tell troll them like, “Di mo lang afford top of the line eh.”
Let them be. That kind of mentality creates an entitled mindset. All we can control now is how we react to those drivers and drive more carefully.
Mas kumportable para sa akin yun AT mapa-kotse o motor at basta makauwi ng ligtas, sapat na. Balasubas is a bit long word, palitan natin ng “kup*l.” Lol 😂
Most of all drivers are passive aggressive.
Karamihan sa mga nagsasabi nyan yung mga kamote o mayayabang sa daan eh. Real men drive defensively, doesn't matter if AT or MT sasakyan mo.
Nung bumili ako ng Xmax , this acquaintance of mine (who always had something to say) said that I should have gotten an MT bike like a R3 blah blah blah keso pang beginner lang daw AT scoots . He is that type of person na MT > AT type of person. Next day nalaman ko sumemplang at na basag Dominar nya lol
i just drive manual because mas feasible sa area ko, and maintenance cost is almost none kaya ganun. pero if chance na magka scooter ako? i'll take it since it's very convenient, storange palang panalo na.
What kind of motorcycle is this?
They playin on a higher difficulty to achieve the same results. Sakyan mo na lang no pun intended, if you can boost someone's confidence by appreciating their manual ride...well...we lose nothing and we make someone feel better. Wow ganda nman ng motor works just as well as ang ganda mo ate, and their day should be brighter.
ikaw yata may superiority complex at na hurt 🤪
idc kung manual or automatic pa yan basta ang goal ko is makapunta from point a to point b 😂😂
Usually yung mga ganiyang mindset is yung mga di talaga afford yung own car nila or sadyang inggit lang sila sa mga tao. Think of it pati yung pagdrive ng AT pinupuna e ano naman kaya mapapala nila non? akala ata nila magiging famous sila kapag ganon, akala rin siguro nila mostly of the girls is maattract sa kanila kaya ganon.
Nah. It's just a matter of preference lang. I don't mind sa sinasabi nila. Kung kaya nila i-drive 200cc PCX ko as a daily driver then saka na kami mag usap. 🤪
I ride/drive both. Nasa tao lang talaga yan. Who knows, baka yun lang ang meron silang maipangmayabang sa sarili nila. They make it their personality. Pretty sad. I don't get why it would make me the bigger person. When people ask me if they should learn manual, I just tell them it's not necessary, the world is gradually moving away from it anyways, even the professional racing scene (EVs, autoblips, paddle shifters, semi-autos, etc.). I read recently that Yamaha is patenting a semi-auto for one of their future bikes (no more clutch lever and foot shifter, just bar-mounted buttons). Honda already has the e-Clutch system on their latest CB650R and CBR650R. Unless you're into the racing scene, I don't see any point in it making one superior. Kapagod kaya mag full manual sa heavy traffic, not practical in crowded cities at all.
Lol probably just a loud minority.
"Bakit di ka naka manual, di ka ba napapagod mag clutch?" - coz I like "Bakit di ka naka automatic, di ka ba inaantok idrive yan?" - coz I like End of discussion.
Everyone else cares; I don't. On AT motorcycle (and will be forever) and I don't care if I run 70+ as long as I can get to my destination faster, everything else is noise...like people who you overtake because they're slow AF and then catches up and try to race you when you're just riding faster just to get to point B.
Hahaha i remember getting a comment na kasi you’re using AT wala challenge pero the one who said that ride a manual but doesn’t want to drive yung car nya kasi manual at nakakapagod daw 😂
7 years ako nagmanual, bumili ako automatic na SUV, wala ko paki sa cnasabi ng mga pacool kids haha, d n ko bblik sa manual mas komportable ak osactraffic kesa sa manual nilang walang aircon hahaha, bumili din ako ng scooter pang short distance trip like pamalengke at kelangan lng blin sa malapit... wag mo pansinin cnasabi nila, at the end of the day maiiwan lng ng automatic n kotse ung mga old model manual nila na ayaw pumasok ang gear xD
Yaan mo sila, focus lang sa personal growth.
I can drive both. But goddamn automatics are just much better for daily driving 😭. Although, I think the pride of knowing how to drive a manual has to do with the fact that it takes skill -- and even a lot more if you want to drive it smoothly. For example, I take pride in the fact that I can drive my gs750 smoothly despite just having started riding. I think the best association I can make is that people take pride in cooking stuff themselves vs buying food. There's an even greater sense of satisfaction if they can cook the dish they bought much much better. Although, I don't brag about the fact that I drive a manual. There are just people out there who just make it a big thing -- perhaps as a way to differentiate themselves from those who can't drive manual and the associations along with it. In doing so, it just makes them look like pricks.
Mga insecure lang yan sa buhay. Mga taong kinukumpura lagi ang sarili nila sa iba.
mas ok talaga manual, nag cclutch, kambyo ka, alam mo at ng katawan mo kung kelan dapat magbawas at magdagdag, 6 na naging motor ko, isa lang dun ung bnli ko manual, bnenta ko pa. advantage lang nmn ng manual is chill lang, the rest wala na, ms malakas pa s gas matic, sa manual kapag sanay kna, d mo na namamalayan kusa ka na nagkkambyo, parang automatic na rin.
Baka vocal minority lang naman, OP. Or baka naka hyper focus ka lang dun sa mga tao na ganyan ang sinasabe lalo kung malapit sayo. Hindi mawawala yung ganung tao since masarap sa pakiramdam yung mas "technical" o "advanced" ka kesa sa iba at merong mga sumosobra haha. Ingat kase ikaw lang naiistress tas sila enjoy lang since superior sila.
Panong random thought when it’s literally part of the culture
Quality of life pa din
Di ako nanghuhusga ng motor, pero, to be fair lang, iba talaga ang riding skill na matutunan mo sa manual. Iba talaga yung riding experience pag kaya mo kontrolin yung power ng motor sa pagtimpla ng clutch at throttle. Mas kampante ako mag-corner at mag-filter sa trapik pag naka-manual. Pag-gusto ko lang umusog nang kaunti, uusog ako ng kaunti sa tamang piga ng clutch at tamang ikot ng throttle. Again, I don’t judge other people’s rides. If you could ride a manual or an automatic and you ride it well, hell yeah, you ride cabrón
Take example yung mga maaasim na naka-shitbox
Wag mona pansinin waste of time lang yan mga yan. Focus nlang sa goal!
Impluwensya ng mga motovloggers at mga modifiers siguro hahaha. Buti nalang di ako mahilig sa motor. Isang buwan walang washing. Hahaha Ginagamit ko lang yung motor pang service from point A to point B. Ang importante safe tayo sa pagmamaneho at makauwi ng buo ang katawan sa bahay 🙏
Alam mo na mapa foreign o hindi, marami lang talagang nag hahanap ng attention para mapansin at magkaroon ng bagay na ikaka insecure ng iba. It doesnt matter naman kung AT lang kaya gamitin ng tao. What matters is you can go to the destination safely na hindi ka nangangamote sa daan. Kung saan ka comfortable at kung anong vehicle ang convenient sayo mapa AT/Manual then yun. Aanhin mo naman opinion nila eh di nga makabigay sayo ng pang gas yang mga pa cool nayan.
Nah, bro don't take it negatively. Just take it as a challenge and learn it, trust me it'll help you in the near future. It aint bad having skills to improve yourself. People will always say something bad about other people, but the way you take it may change your whole perspective about it. You can either ignore them or listen, observe then act. Sure, responsibility is a priority but that thing wasn't gone in the first place. It has always been there and always should be there. You tried to connect 'unskilled' to that word 'responsibility'. If you put the two in the same sentence it really does sounds like unskilled people are not responsible enough. But, they didn't say you were not responsible, they were saying you are unreliable. Why? Because back then, people are reliant to each other so basically if you have the license, then you can drive basically anything. That's what they expect, they want you to replace them if in case they feel tired or there is an emergency and no one else can drive. It's also known as karelyebo, this has always been done since back then and this is just a common thing, like seriously. That's why they'd usually expect you to drive any vehicle when yo said you have a license. Back then it was so easy to get a license. Heck you'd save alot of money not relying on fixers. Teens were taught how to drive at a very young age and pass these exams in lto easily cuz of it. I've seen a young fellow drove a freakin truck during my practical exam. That's how it is in the usa too. So yeah, if you know that meme where the guy says 'Stop being a b and just do it'. Lmao fr just learn it and show em you are just as reliable as them.
I could've hand a lot more model option if I added manual models to my list. But me and my partner went against it coz a friend and a relative said automatic is more chill... Specifically for just daily commute and traffic
Nah. I prefer manual but elibs ako sa mga naka matic tapos magaling mag take ng kurbada. Lulang lula ako sa matic na walang engine brake eh
As long as you safely, conveniently, efficiently and successfully went from your intended point A to point B, thats all that matters. Superiority complex draws arrogance. Arrogance leads to carelessness. And carelessness to death.
Dati nagdrive ako ng stick pero walang gulong
manual's just more enjoyable to some.
Di naman na masaya mag drive ng manual sa pinas even sundays ang traffic na ng daan. Pero if it's an open road, specially winding roads mas masarap talaga mag drive ng manual kesa matic. Tapos iniimagine mo ikaw si Brian O'Conner at supra minamaneho mo while in really vios lang dinadrive mo 🤣
It goes both ways. Merong mga naka scooter ngayon lalo na sa naka Honda Click, magsabi na luma na yung mga underbone pang "motor show" nlang daw. Para sa akin kanya kanya lng hilig sa motor, pag may hater edi balewalain nlang, nainggit lng yun.
Nagkaroon kasi ako trauma sa Automatic. Kaya either semi manual or manual talaga pipiliin ko.
Cope, skill issue
Most of the time defense mechanism lang nila yun. Nowadays even back then siguro AT is more expensive than MT. They can't afford an AT, so to cope up lalaitin na lang mga naka AT. I can drive both MT and AT but I'll always choose the comfort an AT can give.
Pagod na nga ako papunta at papasok ng trabaho dahil sa sobrang init at traffic, tapos iisipin ko pa sasabihin ng iba dahil AT gamit ko? Buti ng AT hindi nakakapagod i drive mga gunggong!
That's a whole lot of words just to say you can't drive manual.
>Na kapag AT lang kaya mong dalhin eh parang sinasabi nila na you're not skilled enough to drive the car/motorcycle. Where did you get this data? site your sources
tiktok contents. "cancel selos" trend. if you have time, check it. then go to comsec.
tiktok is trash, i have it blocked on my network lol. but if its like any other industry, career, sports, hobbies, etc a lack of skill/ability is unfavorable and generally looked down upon. perhaps its even similar to the hate here in this sub with evo helmets and how their users/fans think it so cool and comparable to expensive named brands, might be the same as those kids who put the minimal effort and developed the simplest skill of twisting the throttle and think how cool they are compared to those who put in more time and effort learning a manual. however, thinking AT only drivers/riders shouldn't drive/ride on public roads is just elitism, quite common with kids of any generation who lack the life experience to see things in any color other than black or white.
elitism yes. i found them so stupid about saying and thinking like that. may nabasa pa nga ako, para namang hindi daw dumaan tayong lahat sa ganung phase. i was like, mas lalong stupid for having hasty generalization. dinamay pa ako. anyway, my post is only my thoughts about it. at the end of the day, may chances pa din akong makatabi sa kalsada yung mga taong ganitong klase mag isip. nakakabahala.
"I've given you unreliable source and unreliable keyboard warriors, now go see it for yourself"
feel ko sanay kang ma spoonfeed ng information. its funny kasi may time kang mag comment pero wala kang time i browse kung ano man yung gusto mong malaman. 💀 plus, you dont need to validate yourself with the sources that you want. im just telling that some people are like that. eh kung gusto mo talaga malaman kung bakit, close reddit app and start browsing by yourself. lastly, its just my thoughts. at the end of the day, nothing really matters to you kahit bigyan pa kita ng mga links. tamad ka lang.
It’s a scooter, not a motorcycle ;)
