I learned on my spring break drive to Miami last year in my friend's 2010 SS. Worst part was when we stopped for a break once and I was at a red light uphill with a homeless lady asking for money out the window and a line of people behind me and I stalled it when the light turned green. Light turned red before I could get going again. Then the same thing happened the next time. Everyone except the F250 right behind me was honking at me. Then I missed the third one too, but caught the gear right after it turned red so proceeded to squeal through the intersection.

Needless to say, I wasn't a fan of manuals after that.

S*** happens, that's part of learning to drive a manual. I learned on my car and wouldn't give back any of the memories....... Including all the stalling, stop and go traffic and missed gears. I've had people honk, even laugh.

Yeah driving a stick can be intimidating until you get used to it. Been there before. But banging through the gears at throttle is a lot of fun.

Yet you have no proof to back up anything you say about your car

Also, get a new saying. It’s gotten old

Same

Yeah it's time to change the rears, but they stopped making them and have a new version instead. So looks like I may have have to get a full set.

I've been running the Gmax As03.

I need new tires as well. Since the car isnt a DD anymore, I'm torn between the original G2s or the MP4S.
