Bring back manual transmissions too!
For 60 years, I owned/drove a manual.
My current car, the last 3 years, is a 6-sp automatic with “Manual Mode” and steering wheel paddles.
I definitely prefer my current automatic/manual w/paddles...but 60 years of left leg/foot muscle memory still waiting/wanting to push the clutch pedal.
Manual transmissions are still around and people are buying them because younger car thieves do not know how to operate them. LOL
