So true. Wanna really foil these baby thieves? Let them try and start an old carburetor-equipped car in the morning. ;D

Re: Roll Call! Who drives a MANUAL transmission?
I'm in the exclusively manual transmission camp.
Tried driving a automatic again when shopping for my current car. I pulled out of the parking lot, and turned right back around and moved on to the next car. Just felt wrong... LOL

Re: Roll Call! Who drives a MANUAL transmission?
Manual transmission!!!!! All the way my younger brother (21) drives manual and tough my 15 year old sibling to drive manually as her first car! 2004 Mazada RX-8 and 2006 Mustang GT both manually, the bad thing is that on dates I cannot hold hands when driving but she holds something else while my hands are busy hehehehe. I told my sister if you can drive manually you can drive anything and she said for her first car she wants it manual not automatic!

My last 2 "fun cars" were manual and when the day comes I can get another, it will be manual as well

Re: Roll Call! Who drives a MANUAL transmission?
As I posted in 2015 current Mustang Cobra is a six speed.
But my very first car was a 1961 Ford Falcon Station Wagon with three on the tree.
I just counted all the cars I have had and it goes, manual, auto, manual, auto, manual, auto. And my next car will be a dual clutch so is that an auto/manual?

Re: Roll Call! Who drives a MANUAL transmission?
My "toy" is a manual and my last 4 cars were all manual. I find manual a lot more fun to drive and more involved, but I just recently leased an auto daily and honestly, it's nice sometimes. Mostly because of the overpopulated, traffic infested hell that I live in. 99% of the time, driving around over here where I live is more like waiting in line. You pull out of your drive way, pull down the side street to the main road, and get on line. You inch a little, then wait a couple of minutes, then move a few more inches, then wait another couple of minutes. It's horrible

For a generation that's supposedly an-ti gun, they sure love being triggered....
I'll see myself out now.

Re: Roll Call! Who drives a MANUAL transmission?
Unfortunately, I am part of that generation you speak of. I don't "fit in" with the majority of them. Let's just say that

Cheers to that!
The only auto we have is the gf's Outback Sport. Manual can be a pain from time to time - Bay Bridge traffic... This is where owning a motorbike comes in handy. Bumper to bumper crossing any of the bridges here makes me want to commit seppuku.
