Cant even profile in the car with your arm out the window.

You cant even enjoy the vibe of mellow music in a stick shift.

Yes you can, I do whenever the weather is warm, you only need one hand to shift, your feet take care of clutch and gas. Usually I have my arm out the window with fingers on the edges of the steering wheel. Folks acting like driving a stick is like Formula 1 racing, 5 point harness both hands superglued to the steering wheel. I know a grip load of cats that got systems in they ride driving stick shift.

yep cant enjoy things like a drink (coffee) in the whip also, im not knocking it though they are fun to drive at times, but i dont like having both arms occupied 24/7.


Nonsense, I know a cat that used to drink coffee every day in his 5-speed every morning on the way to work.

Yea, you can "enjoy" the drink as well. Before I knew how to drive stick I would see my friend in his car sandwich in one hand, steering with one knee, other hand shifting gears. I used be like WTF!! When I learned how to drive stick I learned to adapt, and what works and doesn't in that situation. The main thing is making sure the vehicle is in gear when you go to take off, nothing worse then sitting in the intersection giving it gas in neutral.

once u get the hang of it, u will never wanna go back to automatic. i used to think the same way you're thinking right now
Yes and no. If you move to an area with heavy traffic on a regular basis, the stop-and-go business during every commute is tiring on the left leg.

He prolly think you supposed to drive a stick like this :russ:



This shyt got me cracking up I have no idea why.

Stick shift most definitely, but stick causes me to drive faster than usual just because you can control the car better and its more fun. But its all about driving slow so everyone can see your whip

That moment when you learn how to drive a manual and it rides like an automatic:ohlawd:

Since automatics are more popular, do you think manuals will ever become extinct?:to:

Cars with manuals are becoming slim pickings unfortunately, I know from being at Honda they don't make many due to low demand. If you wanted an Accord Sport with a stick you damn near had to order one. New NSX isn't available in a true manual, it's all electronic. Even Porsche is limiting their amount of cars available with manuals. Lamborghini and Ferrari might be following suit.
