You haven’t really driven a car until you operated a manual shifter.

Man I would love to have that old four-on-the-floor again.

I grew up on manual transmissions.

The 79 Chevy LUV started me.

A few Jeeps, K10, Nissan240 and the current 2016 Tacoma are manuals.

Me too, I drove through the mountains after the brakes quit to get home with a manual tranny. Could not have done that with an automatic. AND that was with a camper on board towing a Jeep.

These mew 4 door short bed things are NOT a PU. They are and SUV with a birth defect.
