I used to live in southern Cali, and have been through some heavy traffic with manual, I didn't mind it at all.

Well for the most part I don't really care but at times there are those days I wish I could just put it in drive and just go.

Most of the time in Tallahassee I just get into sixth and I'm good till a red light but on the other hand in Miami I never left second till I got on the palmetto and even then I couldn't stay in one gear

Hey they got to make their money some how. My sister is getting married next month and we were looking at hotels for my family that is coming into town and since her wedding is on FSU homecoming weekend the hotels we found were 300-800 a night. With 300 being a holiday in and 800 being a Marriott

Yea the hotels are insane that weekend and they are basically all booked. But you know Miami is like little Cuba right? Lol you barely ever see a English billboard when your down there. Of course it depends where you stay though

I have no clue where I would stay, or what any of Miami looks like, other than the beach. lol I've heard it's pretty tough to communicate if you don't know Spanish though...which I don't. lol

if I ever go down there, it'll be for a dolphins game, maybe check out the beach and eat at a few places.
