Palmira B., Knoxville TN
I had an old, falling apart stick shift beater in college. It was easy to drive a stick on that car because the clutch was so loose one barely had to depress the pedal to shift. Driving a stick in Chicago of course is not like driving one in Knoxville. After driving an automatic for years, I was faced with driving an old stick Civic in Knoxville. Sittin’ on a hill trying to get the car into gear once the light changed without rolling back into the car behind me .... give me an automatic anytime! Plus, have you ever tried to drink a cup of coffee while racing to school, 10 minutes late, with your kid, and drive a stick at the same time?
