I'm 1 who wish were as blessed as most here who can ditch & switch cars every few years. Forced to keep em long term...most, we self maintain & grind to the ground.
CVTs are best bought new & sold after warranty expires or before trouble(irreversible mostly) haunts. They are belt driven; have a limited lifespan(generally shorter than A/Ts); require costly periodic fluid changes to make em behave right, & are non-rebuilable. Once that belt goes or it conks, you'll be looking at a new tranny that could be pricier than the value of the depreciated car hosting it. It's not an IF, but a WHEN thing.
The MTs are fine. They're the easiest to care for, are rebuildable & most fun in the wide open....not in static traffic.[emoji4]
