A) automatics are better offroad. They might not be as enjoyable on fast roads, but they are just awesome in the bush.

B) vitara's use an AW-4 auto which is strong, reliable and well suited to off road use.

You won't look back.

Manuals are more fun to drive on road but in the bush an auto can be alot better when it gets rocky. Auto's will work better with larger tyres if you dont want to do diff gears.

Over here in vic i'd say there are more manuals then autos for sale

I have an auto GV. I hate it lol. only cause it's gutless and uses to much fuel. I put this down to being an auto.

In saying so I'm glad I got it as I sit in a lot of traffic, it's great off road and beach work and for towing the 1500kg camper.
