I use 1st gear to go over speed bumps, dips, etc. very slowly almost every day. 2nd gear would stall.

I generally slow down so much though, that SRM doesn't even engage.

I am not sure why all of you are getting so angry about the 1st gear thing.

I also downshift a lot to slow down. I like to hear the exhaust too.
