It seems we have some of the dumbest criminals here in FL. Damned Amish. Well someone's gotta say it ;)/s
bet the clown has over stayed his visa too........
He should ‘stick’ to Camels.
Stealing them is easier to drive and smoke at the same time for a sand Rat.
I have never owned an automatic. Of course, I haven’t owned a car in 25 years either, but still...
I have a brother in law, 48 years old and he has never driven a vehicle with a manual transmission. I tried jumping his car once and he didn’t even know that there is are positive and negative battery terminals. As hard as I found it to believe, he had never encountered either experience.
In days to come, a car will drive you to where you want to be. Remote starters, heated seats, heated windows and mirrors, GPS, voice activated cellular phones in vehicle, crash avoidance, rear and forward mounted cameras, on and on.
Where did the “FUN” in driving go??????
Had it not been for forcing myself to learn a stick shift, I’d have never done so.
I guess that's where you attempt theft with a bad attatude, or leave without a sarcasm tag.

In many cases I prefer a manual to an automatic because with a manual my mind does not wander so much. A manual focuses one’s attention.
I do know how to drive a stick, but I’ve never owned a manual transmission vehicle.
To be honest, the thought of dealing with all that shifting while fighting NYC/Long Island traffic made my head hurt. It just never seemed appropriate to have one. Now, if I lived in the country (please God, let it be one day soon) I might reconsider. Until then...it’s automatics for me.

PS: I am confident I would have been able to drive the stolen car out of the lot. If I were the criminal type (which I am not).
I love the 5 speeds but they are harder and harder to find.
My last 4 cars were 5 speeds and they last.
Americans seem to love expensive toys in their cars that break and cost a lot to fix.
Whenever I rent a car on business I’m always glad to get home to my stick shift.
“... unleashed the pepper spray ...” ???
Why not “... unleash 4-6 rounds of .40 caliber FMJ ...” and save the taxpayers a bunch of cash?
Stick shifts are racist.
soeotro’s cousin?...
I’ve owned many manual trans pickups. There’s nothing like getting in a new pickup with an automatic transmission and going to the first stop sign. Your left foot raises up, slams into the floor hard, and you wonder why the clutch is so soft.
He’s gonna love it at Raiford. :-)
