Despite the claims that an auto is less fun to drive, I have a great time driving mine. It has enough pick up and if I really want to get involved in shifting gears, I just do so with the auto; but the nice thing is when I'm stuck in traffic, I don't have to deal with that awful clutch!
Just out of curiosity, does your Jeep have a manual transmission ?

The reason I asked is that it might be easier to...'accept' ()....an automatic Yaris if one had another vehicle that had a manual transmission.
