In snowy weather you down shift to 2 or 1, take overdrive off, if you have it, and that's all there is to it. How is a manual better for snow if it's just a car/truck your driving?
I know that. There's a BIG difference between a stick and an automatic.
In a stick, you can push the clutch in and boom...you're in neutral allowing your vehicle to slow down quicker because the transmission is no longer "in gear". An automatic just doesn't allow for that kind of ease of slowing down. Down shifting an auto as compared to a stick is not comparable.
