I guess you get used to it ... there was more stop-go traffic in places I worked in the UK than you could shake a stick at ... it never phased me to be honest. I must admit I like stop-go even less in an automatic ... I hate the excessive braking compared for speed control as opposed to using the MTX to control the speed. There's nothing worse than creeping along slowly for a mile with your foot on the brake pedal most of the time.

agreed. as for wearing out legs....i have very strong legs so that is not a problem.
