I spend my work life in the world of the abstract and the hypothetical. Anything concrete is, for me, very satisfying. I can split firewood for 3 hours and feel fantastic for having actually accomplished something tangible.
This is why I love to mow my lawn.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
