Stick Shift?

[Cam]

Do you know how to drive a stick shift?

I can barely drive a car with an automatic transmission. I don't even want to try a stick shift. x_x

I've never tried to drive a stick shift either. I would like to learn how at some point.

That's what I drive daily, so yeah. It's an adjustment that you need to make, especially because you generally need to keep a hand on the shift at all times. If you're looking to learn to drive a stick shift, I'd recommend you try a lighter vehicle, due to how the transmissions work with smaller vehicles. I drive an old pickup, and it's a lot hard to shift that truck over something like an Accord.

My dad taught me how to drive a stick shift about a year ago. I've never driven anything besides a stick. penmouth:

Whoa. Anything else will be easy to you then.

It's the only type of car I've ever driven.

I could drive one but we would probably stall in the middle of the freeway. *nods*

I get the concept of how to drive stick shift, it's just actually driving it. I can multitask however, for some reason pushing on the clutch and upshifting and downshifting and everything is just not the thing I want to do when trying to avoid the nutty drivers that don't know how to drive. :tearsofjoy:

Yes, I know how to drive a stick. Honestly, I'd prefer to drive a stick as it safer and easier to drive in emergency situations. Specifically, it's safer and easier to stop if you lose your brakes.
