Why are car companies/plants shying away from the traditional manual transmissions in automobiles?

31 May

I noticed Dodge Chrysler and a lot of car companies have that auto shift gear box. That’s so wack, compared to the traditional clutch. It just goes from side to side for gears, no more clutch. It’s really still an automatic to me because the clutch is gone. I see now why American cars are not being bought as much as foreign cars now. We (car consumers) want the traditional clutch to come back in effect. It’s the sportscar feel behind the wheel, you can’t feel it behind a Dodge Charger because there’s no clutch anymore, no matter how fast you make it. My favorite car is the Corvette, however, if someone tried to sell me a automatic I would not take it because it wouldn’t feel the same without the manual transmission. What’s your opinion on this?
