I drive back and forth between two busy cities daily. I got my car for free and I'm not going to complain about it!

I live in the fifth most populous city in the country and commute to work in the most densely populated state every day and I drive a stick. I'm still happy without an automatic.

Having that little extra omph of acceleration when you want it is a great thing when you live in a place with a more aggressive driving style.

The only time I hate driving a stick is when I have to parallel park on a hill in the snow.

Hey! Driving an automatic was not a pleasant experience for me, and I don't want to drive one ever again. I'll take the bus over driving an automatic.

Had to do that this morning. It's really the only downside.

And the transmissions usually last the life of the car, unlike automatics. Automatics were made for lazy people and old women.

the nice thing is all i have to do tonight is get to a safe place in Sacramento....so i have plenty of time to relax and just take it slow
