Can you drive stick?

It seems a lot of people can't..

 

yes i can drive a manual automobile.


i think everybody should learn how.

edit; can you?

 

Yeah, sure.

I was just curious about how common it is in the US since most cars have automatic gears there.

 

Nope

I learned in an automatic

 

i thinks its becoming less common...know what i mean?


the day i got my permit my dad instructed me how to drive the manual home from the secretary of state office...it was pretty nerve wrecking.

i figured it out soon enough.

 

YOU CAN DRIVE

 

YOU HAVE CARS IN N.Z...........



Cheers Glen.

 

glenny, i bet you learned how to drive a stick years before you could legally drive..hahaha.

 

Indeed, and I also have my own car

I can frequently be seen/heard driving around with the roof/windows back and black metal up exceptionally loud I enjoy the looks of horror, shock and disgust I get from pedestrians and other drivers

 

Given most manual cars will be swaped to semi-auto within the new 10-15 years......

Yeah, but didn't learn till this year, on a company vehicle.

It's pretty easy, but if you grew up on an automatic like I did, it's no surprise most people don't learn.

If I was buying a new car I wanted to invest in for a decade or so, I'd probably want a manual. Cheaper to start with, cheaper repair. Looks a bit cooler.

A slight hassle. And eating while driving is hard. Probably is dangerous in any car anyway.

 

ive been driving a stick for 12 years...

in that time i learned how to smoke a cigarette, eat a big mac, sip on some soda and use the cell phone all at the same time and while driving and shifting...

yes im that good.


i must be a right brained person

No, they will just have the stick there to make you think that.....

 

I can drive a manual drunk too I assume, doesn't mean it's safe.

I learnt how to drive an automatic and a manual on my L plates. The automatic was a stateman de ville and the manual was an old vw beetle. I recon that if I can drive them I could drive just about anything else.

I preffer driving manual anyway. In an auto I feel like I have nothing to do.

 

I've been drivin stick since i was 8
