While I haven't owned a car in years... Every car I ever did own was a stick... and much prefer driving them.. even when I lived in the city... I think I killed the clutch on my first car by teaching other people how to drive it...

The only downside to a stick.., when I got my driver's license (in the state of Connecticut in the very early 80s) if you road tested on a stick part of the test was to stop on a hill, and start up again without rolling backwards down the hill...

A few weeks back, I was at a customer site, and someone there had the 50th anniversary edition Corvette... I got to take it out for a spin... Oh that was sweet... Power good.. .controlling that kind of power... very good.
