We let computers make our lives better in hundreds of other ways, but somehow when it’s a fully developed one, in a car, that’s bad?
The last time a rolling start would’ve helped me was in like 2002 in my 1989 junker so yeah color me unconvinced. People like to claim that automatics waste gas but the way you see people drive sticks leads me to believe the reverse is usually true.
I’ll take life with computers, you can revert to 1955 driving if you like.
buddy computer are NOT to be trusted unless you know how it works. real ones only use mobile phones because society practically forces you to. the less computers the better
I’ve never heard of anyone’s automatic transmission failing in a truly harmful way. Barely heard of any failing period, heard of plenty blown clutches though. Humans make way more mistakes than a well engineered machine
Then you’ll have to buy only old cars as everything in the last few decades had its engine controlled by a computer or at least microcontrollers which are mini computers. You’re looking at mostly pre-1990 cars. These were the cars you could easily hot-wire as they didn’t have electronic security.

exactly. so we should stop making cars electronic
All the fuel for the car is pumped, refined and transported with electronics. Not to mention traffic lights.
