So you don't like actually driving.

You're goddamn right I don't, but I don't have a choice due to where I live. A car is a tool to me, in the same way that a vacuum cleaner or a push lawnmower is a tool. The most important thing a car should do for me is reliably get me from point a to point b in relative comfort. I could give a fuck about the "true driving experience" of a manual transmission.
