I might confess I'm not so excited about shifting gears in urban traffic. I dislike the clutch pedal

You might remember, when European cars were already getting fitted with 4-speed transmissions to overcome their lower torque, bigger American cars with their comparatively massive engines retained even the archaic 3-on-the-tree. After all, no more than 4 gears would be required for a Cruze Diesel in my hometown
