whereas my old 1970s Chrysler is a 3 speed auto with a street fighter box in it, modded for quicker shifts and less slip, but in reality it is nowhere near these modern autos, not even close.
One of my workvans is an 08 l200 diamond auto, and it's got a typical old style 4 speed auto, just like a clutch slipping when you first pull away
My mates just bought a 4.1litre straight six (L6 engine) Pontiac Ventura and we went out in it today. That has the column shift auto and tbh it wasn't too bad.
My daily is a 2014 hyundai elantra auto, the box isn't too bad but every so often it holds the gear and shifts late but its good on fuel and reliable so I'm happy with it.
