Maybe I should post a pic of my car BEFORE "the driving lesson" (While there's still a car to have a picture of.)

No, have fun with him learning. If you feel like yelling, laugh instead, and tell him you did the same thing... And take him out for ice cream afterward. It's one of those 'forever' memories, make it a good one

Yeah, he's pretty laid-back and just going from other "stuff" we've done, I don't think it will get too weird. Besides, this car really is super easy for a manual. I've only stalled it once (gas station backing up no room and uphill). It was 30+ years since I had driven a manual, and I did okay. He'll have a stall (or two) and a couple herky-jerky's and then he should be fine with it.

I'm only teaching him HOW to drive it. "NoUCantDriveIt" is still my answer if he wants the keys.

No, I'm just reinforcing the "Patience is a virtue" lesson, or is it the "Good things come to those who wait" lesson? Eh, whatever... I'm sure there's a lesson in there somewhere.
