I dont because the car I bought didnt have one and I was too lazy to search endlessly for one with a 5 speed.

Cracks me up that Americans find driving stick to be an achievement.

Yeah. Although I think manual cars are a lot rarer in the US than they are here.

I only drive an auto because thats what my company gave me. I didn't have a choice. If I was buying a car it would definitely be a manual.

A girl who can drive a manual is a turn on.

It has also been proven that manual drivers are safer drivers and have fewer crashes. Thats why when I have a daughter/son and they get their first car it will definitely be a manual.

i have only ever driven manual cars.

i was taught manual - i think if you learn in an automatic you can only have a licence to drive automatic cars, or something. obviously. manual cars are the norm here so driving stick it was.

i do a really mean three point turn. is that a turn on? shit, this is a whole other area of potential attraction i have never explored.

i got my auto licence first because i bought my car before i got my licence and couldn't handle having a car yet no licence so i went for the easy option. got my manual licence about 6 months later tho

Im not sure what its like now but when I got my licence there wasn't a separate test for manual or auto.

So i went the auto route got my licence and then bought a manual car

My sentiments exactly.

I have only ever driven an automatic once (in the US surprise surprise) and i didn't know what to do with my left foot. I kept jabbing the invisible clutch.

i don't think it's an achievement. i just prefer driving manual. it's more fun! when i bought my new car last year, i had 2 choices of color b/c there were only 2 manual civics on the lot. luckily they had red. ;)

i will say some of us might think it's an achievement b/c we're taught on auto in school. it's up to our parents to teach us manual, i guess, and most of them only know how to drive auto.

i've actually taught several of my friends how to drive stick over the years.

Both my parents drove autos and my first car was an auto too - I got my license pretty quick, in about 8 or 9 lessons, so it was auto all the way.

I like driving manual, my ex taught me in his car and I was alright at it.

Driving manual gives a much better feeling of control.

I learned on a three-on-the-tree. (y)

Same. No wonder they're all obese morons.

I'm used to stick but I had an Audi S4 company car last month that was an automatic. Although I was driving a nice car, I felt like I was driving a shop-mobilty spaz chariot.
