Manual tranny is the best not only for taxi business but personal use alike except for places like Lagos where traffic can make one go mad, manual transmission isn't advisable |

samuelchimmy: So a driver on a 15 hour shift, driving a manual transmission is not punishing him or herself? Imagine the extra effort clutching down and changing gears and rethink your answer!!!! 1 Like |

I would advise you go for manual . A taxi driver is suppose to be a proffesional so the synergy of the gears and pedals should not be a problem to you . the fact that it allows for push to start is an advantage . I personally love manual transmission vehicle , I like touching my gear lever everytime. 1 Like |

Electronzeez: Your response makes me laugh, till my belle hurts. So a taxi driver pushing his taxi to start is a positive thing? Manual transmission is good, for the pleasure driver and not in job mode!!! 1 Like |

Lexusgs430: You are right , driving through Lagos traffic is still energy consuming either you are driving manual or automatic . commercial drivers don't see manual as stress though . |

Electronzeez: I love manual too, but if I was a taxi driver, it has to be only automatic transmission. Over to you, if you were a taxi driver, manual or automatic transmission? |

[quote author=Siena post=42220586] Which of these transmissions is maintenance freeManual and cheaper to run?Manual What is the sole purpose of a taxi cab business?Making money. I'm sure you already know what the answer is.Yes, sir. The answer is Manual because it's easier to maintain, and it is cheaper to run. Since the sole purpose of running a taxi cab business is making money, it's only sane that manual is used, so as to avoid spending unnecessarily on repairs. Once again, the answer is manual. 1 Like |

Where do people get the perception that manual transmission is maintainance - free? |
Re: Auto Or Manual Car As Taxi? by ColeworldMD(m): 12:45am On Jan 25, 2016 |
ThisisBuhari:my analogy Manual- can be pushed to start if it partially fails and stopped on the road Auto- if it fails and stopped on the road, all ur passengers will come down and u're on your own |
Re: Auto Or Manual Car As Taxi? by kudos4u(m): 12:55am On Jan 25, 2016 |
Manual is advisable due to the cheap maintainance |
