Actually you re correct, I drove manual for more Dan a year and the simple trick is just managing every gear with neutral, by dat U reduce stress , on Auto the problem I have most times is the non driving legvery very problematic

Ghost1994:


She was saying Hello Hello and cut me off.

My advice to fellow drivers out their, get a visible camera in your car to avoid something's like this.

You own a car of 1M but can't get camera of 6k is bad abeg.

I have 1 of this and its deliver well for me to avoid any transfer issues.

Especially when those (lekki babes) see the camera recordings although it's for front view alone but the kind fear wey dey catch dem no be here.

One was asking me oga this your camera eh dey recording inside? I replied and said yes for my protection or if rider want to outsmart me with payments, I send him/her my recordings on WhatsApp and in less down 1min I got my money.

It could be anything (lastma, vio, local government agberos, policemen, accident and so on)

And let's us learn to protect ourselves because COVID is real.
Peace

Pls loud it I see drivers and riders without mask inside AC na their family be my concern especially the ones with elderly parents living with them.

Oga dru, I've always told you to stay away from this kind of discussion cos rumour has it that you can't drive so your judgement on this kind of matter will not count. I drive a stick shift and it is not as stressful as painted. pros are durability, cheaper maintenance, better fuel economy, cars are cheaper. cons: stress of changing gears in slow moving traffic. if you drive a modern manual car that's well maintained, your clutch and gear will be very soft hence less stress while changing gears. I just pity some drivers that can't think. you have 1m but because you want to drive a particular brand with automatic transmission, you'll go and enslave yourself and be doing hp or rental with your 1m when you can get a good car with manual transmission at that price and make money for yourself and become your own boss. I started this hustle with rentals and I first car was an 04 corolla. That car came from canada so had suspension issues. I later bought my own car which was a big daddy camry 04 little did I know that the car is notorious for shorting oil. I use I litre of oil to top up weekly, I later sold off after 9 months of usage. I bought 09 corolla for 2.1m but discovered it's a wrong tool of the hustle too cos its costlier to maintain than previous car and sold off before the AC wahala too starts. Truth be said! the 03-08 corolla is best for the hustle but it is unnecessarily too expensive and the fact that you can't have peace of mind with that especially in Lagos. it's also becoming expensive to maintain too due to costs of parts too I currently drive a brand that's not popular in Lagos, fits the hustle too, though manual but who cares!, cheaper parts, fuel economy is good, rugged, nice looking atleast to my eyes and fits the fare perfectly.

Because of that small something that's why you wrote all this grammer that you learnt in school
But wait o, which exam did you fail? Kindly remind me again.

If you think I've not driven manual before, you will have to think again because it's possible you were still driving toy cars when I started driving manual, and i still drove one to awka from lagos in January so don't be jumpy make you no go jump inside hot water.

Lastly don't be making statements like.. it's because of people like you i don't comment on nairaland. Who cares! You're not important so it doesn't matter whether you comment or not.

Bros na lie ooh no talk like that ooh... Manual is even faster in everything than automatic.

Manual will overtake faster

Manual can jump a ditch/guilter or a barrier if there's danger.

Manual can tolerate aggressive driving and veeybbad roads

Manual can tolerate abuse

You can driver a manual car with almost no oil in the gearbox

The most important attribute of manual that makes professional drivers like it is that, during overtaking on a one way road manual can do the almost impossible over taking an automatic can't do.

Manual don't understand anything like "my b3 is bad" just push it and the car starts

Manual will move faster from rest than the automatic

Manual can engage its reverse gear without having to breakdown or returning the speed to 0km/hr when danger is sighted, this is one thing automatic can't do lie lie.

You can easily maneuver using a manual car but you can't with automatic.

I can go on an on but let me stop here.

These are most of the reason you see that the danfo drivers tends to be smarter than other motorist its not mainly because they can drive more than other drivers but because of the attributes and abilities of the bus they driver. Just master and see how you will hate driving an automatic car.

it doesn't matter if I live in a slum. Why are Nigerians always trying to sound rich? I've made my point. It doesn't matter if I'm rich or poor. Change your mindset and don't quote me again.

Evening guys.....

So a bolt driver extorted my sister of 3900 from abule-egba to dalema bus-stop at alakuko trip of 900-1100...trip started around 5:30 something and this mofo went to pass iju and then fagba to get to dalemo, why and how he did it is taller than my reasoning but the greed this mister has no be from here

When he told my younger sister the price, baby girl was just confused cuz that's way too much so she called me to transfer the money to him and then come and pick her up coz she's afraid of requesting another ride on bolt and it was very late around 10 when he heard her call me to come pick her, that's when the guy started shouting he wants to be going home that beckley estate (where he lives) closes gate around 9:00, she being fearful of the guy being locked outside told me to send the money to him immediately so he could get home in time.

He gave her his account details and i sent it 0016041184 awolola omotayo azeez gtbank

Immediately i sent it this mister chased baby girl out of his car and zoomed off leaving her alone at a bus stop where cultists were fighting and killing each other around 10pm!!!!.....she texted me what he did and i quickly ran to get her all the way from ojodu it didn't take me up to 48 minutes to get her.....baby girl was thoroughly shaken up

I just want to appeal to our FBI's in the house izzou and company if you can help me track this self-servicer down I'd be very grateful even if it's just his number or address or both

And oga Felicity0001 If you know this guy with the name above in your estate kindly email his number i want to tell him something

My sister is 17.....I'LL BE VERY GRATEFUL FOR YOUR HELP

isorite. Apparently malaria and typhoid (which I call Nigeria disease) now kills people anyhow. Something that we all get and be up after a week now kills people anyhow

Pearl1910:
Am I d only one that notice that all these manual lovers are former drivers of the manual car. My first car was manual, my former car was manual, I use to drive manual, I drove manual for 100 years,...

nobody is saying I am driving manual, I have driven auto and I prefer manual. Were dey disguise

If its better or okay, why aren't u still driving the manual car on ehailing or seeking for manual only when looking for car to drive?

Manual plenty for town o...let nobody say manual isn't available. I have Hyundai Elantra 2007 manual and Toyota Corolla X 2003 (Bank type) manual. Both cars are very clean. If u want to trade your auto for manual hit me up. Or if u will deliver same amount with auto, without excuse quote me.

Don't make the discourse look childish

Nobody talked down on automatic transmission. We only corrected the impression that a manual is very difficult car to drive.

It is not difficult as they paint it, but I don't expect you to understand sha

You never drove a manual

Kanoski:

What brand sir?
