Quick Poll. Yes, Another Poll. This One About Transmissions.

This is fresh, re. Arizona: http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/arizona/politics/article_4a31dfd8-c58f-11e3-af8d-0019bb2963f4.html

That 'quadracycle' in the article must have been thought up during a pipe dream.

Thanks for sharing the article and the Elio train continues to gain momentum

You bet & Amen to that.....................

I missed that article... Being a "Zonie" this is a big step... I have already been preparing to borrow someone's motorcycle to test just to have my motorcycle tag if the SB1201 doesn't pass... Waiting with fingers crossed... One never knows with AZ what will happen... Just saying...!

Seen accidents and breakdowns in HOV lane. Not so fast then! Should abolish HOV and create the extra highway that is really needed!

I've always felt there needs to be a motorcycle only lane that cars cannot be part of..a type of sectioned off lane.... It may encourage more to use bikes to commute with a safer alternative

My 2012 Jeep Wrangler is a six speed which I really like. However driving bumper to bumper or through construction can be tedious. The Elio sounds better to me as an automatic but I respect those who are going stick.

I've always favored manual transmissions but have been driving mostly big pickups which seem to only come in automatics. Combine that with the resale pain of trying to find that person who wants a stick... Well, let's just say that with automatics as good as they are nowadays, manual transmissions are going mayor the dodo. I'm surprised that the poll here is so close... <7% of nationwide automobile sales according to the EPA but almost 40% here!... mind.blown.

two reasons, Odd attracts odd, and many of the people choosing "stick" will come to their senses when they have to REALLY decide.

If your spouse does not know, or want to know, how to drive with a manual transmission the decision is out of your hands and you WILL be buying an Elion with an automatic transmission

That is true... Unless she doesn't want to drive it at all.
