Whatis the difference between an automatic transmission and a manual transmission in a car or truck?

[Edit]

Answer

an automatic transmission shifts through the 4 or 5 gears for you as you accelerate. a manual transmission must be shifted by hand using a shifter and a clutch (located next to the left of the brake pad).
