Just learned driving an actual car with a manual tranny this year when I bought my 99 GT Vert. I learned on an old Caterpillar forklift at work (4 speed, two forward and two reverse, low and high). The damn thing only went a max of 6-7MPH....no fun 

Next time I drove stick was when I test drove an SRT-4, then bought a SVT Focus shortly thereafter - which I sold for the Mustang cuz it kept breaking down (dealer had it for 3 outa the 9 months I had it, and tried to make me pay for a part that broke after 1000 miles and had a TSB and later a recall on).

It was either stay there or I learn & drive home...haha. It's was a 20 mile drive to over 1,000ft elevation...not fun. all the stop lights were on hills.
