In Europe most cars are manual and automatics are very expensive and limited to not every car. I drive an automatic Suzuki shift. I learned to drive in a manual Mini Cooper and passed my test in an automatic Mini Cooper.

Yes, but not well when large hills are involved.

@SW-User Yes, it's helpful. I can't decide who's in more danger....the people behind me or the ones in front, lol. The e-Break helps those behind, but heaven help those in front when I suddenly jolt forward. 😂 I stick with automatics...

@SW-User haha I always wait a little for the people in front of me to start pulling away. I love driving manual. I'm not the greatest at it, but I enjoy it. I feel like it forces the driver to pay more attention to driving. It seems like it makes you a safer driver because you are more alert.

Yes but a modern day automatic is way better in every way.
@SW-User Unless you're racing.

@InterstellarTerror even racing. They accelerate faster and get better gas mileage than manuals, both of which were the whole reasons to choose a manual over an auto.

Yes, I do know how to drive a stick shift -- makes it much easier to rent a car when traveling internationally.

Yes . I'm British and most cars here are stick shift.We just call them manual.I prefer to change gears myself.

not in a while, but I can. it's a dying skill - and not really necessary
sort of like knowing how to parallel park in many parts of the world

Yes and I dont think I would want to own an automatic again. Manual is way more fun.

Yes, I consider it an anti theft device.
@SageWanderer Seriously though. Someone broke into my sister's 911 thinking they were going to steal it. Couldn't get the thing to go. 😂 I mean it sucked but a broken window is easier to get fixed than replacing a stolen car.

@InterstellarTerror I have two vehicles, one is an automatic as it is easier to tow but the everyday vehicle is standard for that reason.

No, I have a general gist of how to do it but I’ve never needed to know
