Quinderris “Stick Shift” Brown
Sometimes you can NOT get your soda into the right gear!
Sounds like a safe bet that he wasn’t armed with a 1911, either.
Standard transmissions are racist!!! Ban them now!!!!
For all those banging away on the kid for being unable to drive a manual (standard) transmission, keep in mind that, depending on the source, only 3 to 5 % of all cars sold have these transmissions. Manufacturers offer the manual transmission on a larger percentage of models (one report said 47% of models in 2016) but very few customers actually purchase one - especially now that automatics are nearly as fuel efficient as manuals.
For the armed forces, it has been that way for new drivers since the mid-1990s, when the M800 series 5-ton truck was replaced with the M900 series truck. Same truck but the M900 series did away with the manual transmission. The switch conformed with the pool of new drivers being recruited and it is lot easier to train drivers and mechanics on one vice two transmissions.
Going back to the carjacker, he failed to be prepared to drive what he intended to steal but even more of a failure was his lack of preparation to defeat the Find My Fone/Lookup tracking technology found on nearly cellphone these days. That is what enabled the police to find him.
I Love Chimps!
His prison nickname will be “Stick Shift”.
Or possibly "Four on the Floor".
We was just stealing the car to pay his tuition at the community college. The tablet was going to be sold to buy books
Well, I never looked at criminals and car hijackers as rocket scientists to begin with.
I had my eye on a Toyota Tacoma that was advertised online for a Phoenix car dealer across town. It was too expensive for me but over time that I was looking online, I'd still see it advertised but at a progressively lower asking price each time I saw it.
Over the year I was looking, the price dropped from over $20K down to $10K. What could possibly cause a nice looking truck with low miles hang around the lot for so long and keep dropping in price? So I decided to drive across the Valley to see for myself.
The truck was beautiful. Not a mark on it, clean as a whistle. Low mileage. I still could not understand what the problem was. Maybe it had been in an accident? So I asked the car salesman.
He said there were a lot of inquiries about it but as soon as he told the prospects that it was a 5-speed, standard transmission, they all walked away. Seems like no one knows how to drive a stick shift nowadays. I grew up on gear shift knobs and clutches. I have always driven stick shift vehicles.
I bought the truck that day for $9,700 and have never been happier. It still runs like a charm eight years later.
If Bill Clinton had a son...oh, wait.
Nah, that's a porn name.

Gotta be a dem
Now that's funny, right there...
i used to drive a 18 wheeler with 25 foward gears and 5 reverse would like to see him with that.
I’d like to see him with a sledgehammer, breaking big rocks into smaller ones.
“Then there’s his twin sisters Syphilis and Gonorrhea!
I wonder if he has 10 kids yet?”
Anyone at his age engaging in carjacking should be taken to a doctor and “surgically altered,” so he is unable to reproduce. Society has a right to make every effort to reduce crime, and “snipping” guys like this is an easy way to cut down on violence.
