"How many here can drive a "Stick"?"

Shoot, my first car was manual transmission and the shift lever was on the steering column.

And that can be done left-handed, while undoing a bra-strap with your right hand. ;)

I wasn't always a celibate.

I drove a ‘63 International Harvester “rowbinder” pickup truck with three on the tree all the way through law school. Damn thing had so much torque that I had to go buy three bags of pea gravel to throw in the bed so I could get it out of the driveway after it snowed 14 inches in San Antonio.

My grandfather had a Buick with the manual transmission shift in the steering column. As a kid I was fascinated how he worked it.

I have a three on the tree 64 Valiant that is coming out of the barn this fall.
I promise.
Really.
Just like I promised last summer.
But this time, like, really.
