I don't hate automatics, they're actually good for constant stop-and-go traffic, but when the battery dies it's a PITA. Even worse is when the starter is not working properly and not even a bump-start is an option. Once my dad bought an old Pontiac Trans Sport from one of my uncles, and it had a starter failure, it still could start but took longer to do so, and I was getting so mad at it that I have even considered to work around a manual pull-cord starter similar to the one used in marine outboard motors at least to be there as some sort of backup...
