Yes, please learn to drive a standard, they last longer, use less gas, require less maintenance, allow you to be a better driver.
Every one I know who has owned a Ford Taurus didn't think much of how much the car cost to fix, until they got a different car, gas is such a small part of the over all cost of owning a car, about 1/4-1/3 of the cost of driving is gas for most people.
