Do you look while shifting?

Yes, the first two seasons. The packaging and special features are wonderful.

BTW, we now own all seven seasons of DS9 from the U.K. releases. :)

Oh excellent! A word of warning though, be careful with the season two case - apparently on some of them the earlier ones were moulded out of plastic that wasn't too great, and some of the hinges snapped - like mine. :lol:

Why would you have to look with an automatic transmission?

I actually look more with an auto tranny.


Mainly when I'm putting it into reverse. One reallly doesn't want to screw that up.

When you shift gears in your car, do you look to make sure it's in the right position or do you just know by feel that you have shifted correctly?

When I drive a manual I don't look. I can feel whether it is in the right position.

That isn't too often anymore, really only when I rent cars or SUVs while on vacation. I learned to drive using a car that had a stick ('68 Datsun). The last manual transmission car I drove was a Ford Explorer in Mexico last year. It is true that you never do forget how to drive a stick.

Currently my wife's Maxima has a CVT, and my aging Lexus is an automatic, so we don't drive manuals much anymore.

I have driven manual since I was 8. It was a Honda 50 trail bike also the family's Ford 9N tractor. The last time I looked when shifting was when I drove a old harvest truck. It was custom made for lettuce picking it had two four speed transmissions a two speed brownie box (high and low for the 6 wheel drive). That is a total of four shift levers confusing. If you locked it in all low gears you could get out and walk faster than the truck ran at full speed.
