No, only an automatic. I’d freak out if I had to drive a stick shift.

I learned how to drive with a stick-shift and didn't even own a car with an automatic transmission until well into my 30s. I still worry I'll reflexively go to hit the clutch with my left foot and push in the emergency brake by mistake.

I don't know how I drive manual but I want to learn, it would be handy and cheaper if I ever got a standard car



I recommend stick for sporty cars but not for anything else. Resell value is higher in automatics.

If you trailer a lot, or do the majority of your driving on the highway, standard is the way to go.

Unless you live down by spin. Fuck a standard down there.

I would fucking hate a manual in this town. Too many stupid drivers + hills everywhere. It'd be a nightmare and you'd have to replace your clutch almost yearly.
