Amerifat here.
Every car I've owned has been a stick, including the one I just bought.

>>16324031
I drive motorcycle just fine, is driving stick in car that much different? I feel like it may be awkward for first few moments but I think I could get it pretty quickly.

>>16324204
Yes it is unless you're riding suicide clutch. But you have the advantage of knowing what a clutch is for and know that you need clutch control

>>16324204
Anything but a dogbox is crap. I hate synchomesh H-pattern transmissions.

If it's not a dogbox there's no point in driving stick. It's just an appliance.

Yes, it's a well known fact.

>>16324259
I use one every day when the roads aren't an unplowed clusterfuck of packed snow, ice, and slush.

Only got to drive a car with one once though

It was actually fun instead of the frustrating clutch-kicking fuckfest that is shifting with synchros. You'd have to be some sort of cuck to take pride in that bullshit, or just a poorfag who couldn't afford the auto option.

>>16324306
How is shifting with syncros frustrating?

post it then

>It was actually fun instead of the frustrating clutch-kicking fuckfest that is shifting with synchros
Daily reminder that you don't have to use the clutch to synchronize gears in a synchronzied gearbox.

Is a manual vehicle a good idea for a first car? I can only afford older models of the car I want and it comes only in manual.

>>16324324
>Is a manual vehicle a good idea for a first car?
no
>older models of the car I want and it comes only in manual.
Double no, gl if the clutch disk is just about worn out.

>>16324324
Nothing wrong with it, it'll be less likely to shit the bed from lack of maintenance, but if you're a retard you can fuck up more things with it. You really, really have to be a retard to fuck up a car with a manual though.

30 minutes to grasp maybe, but hours to train in traffic without shifting still being a distraction, and your jerky ass shifts are nowhere near mastering.

>>16324683

why don't you go ahead and tell us all the make and model of car you have with a dog box transmission?

Good lord have fun when the linkages wear out.
Still looks fun as shit
wat hooptie

>>16325129

Shift linkage is the easiest shit to repair.
I can, and have machined my own brass bushing replacement at work. Same shit that folks sell online for $50 a kit, I made my own for free.
I would make more, but I can only get away with so much personal shit at work.

anyway, what wears out are rubber bushings, and joints that loose lubrication. easy repair.

I'm usually a proud, flag-waving citizen of the USA, but watching Americans (especially abroad) act like imbeciles when faced with the task of driving stick makes me want to move to northern Finland and never interact with an American for the rest of my life.

2 of the 4 cars i own are manual.

They are shit first cars if you don't have money. Usually sellers are getting rid of it because the clutch is nearing the end of its life.

>>16325432
That's why you test drive it and check it's not slipping by putting your foot down in a high gear. When I bought my first car I skipped the first one I test drove because the clutch was fucked.

>>16325485

You are such a stupid faggot holy shit do you even have a car?

Now, you see, if that was true you wouldn't feel the need to try to convince us that you know how to drive stick.

The weird thing about ex-9gag is that they tend to be the better newfags and lurkers these days. They've got some weird North Korea walled garden kind of thing going on and the ones that get out immediately recognize it for what it was and head for greener pastures, that they tend to have some respect for.

Ask one of them about it when you get the chance. It was interesting to hear about.

You're delusional pal.

>>16324031
Here in Italy you have to learn how to drive a manual in order to obtain your license, do Americans do driving lessons with a manual?

>>16328421
No. Most people don't need to drive manual here because we have the money for autos, so there's no real need to require manual knowledge.
