I occasionally shift my auto, usually when driving a bit more aggressively than usual. If it wasn't designed to take it, then it wouldn't have that option. I am simply using it the way Toyota engineered it.
The nice thing is when I do want/need it to shift on its own, it can... Accept it or not, but automatic transmissions are the future of motoring. Toyota sold considerably more automatics in the Yaris than it did manuals, and many cars are not even offered with manuals anymore. Even in Europe, where the manual transmission reigned supreme long after it started fading in popularity in the States, it is now more common to see automatics. The clock is ticking...
