Future Dallas Z Owner with a question

Eighties Meta · 09-22-2012, 09:10 AM

well, I drive in pretty heavy traffic myself in baltimore/washington corridor and I must say i often find myself still using the paddle shifters and basically keeping the car in 2nd gear the whole time if I can manage to not come to a dead complete stop, obviously with the paddle shifters you can't stop it from shifting into first but leaving it in auto mode in heavy traffic to me at least is very annoying because it shifts from 1 st to 4 very quickly under 35mph which is what's occuring most of the time, 0 to 40 back to 10 or 0 mph and leaving it auto for me is bothersome it's always shifting which is why I started just leaving it manual mode.
