I'm getting a new truck, I've never driving stick as an everyday driver, but I'm thinking about it for gas mileage.

I love stick, its a lot of fun but if you are driving in a city, automatic is probably better. If you are worried about gas you should get a hybrid. Have fun car shopping!

well, my jeep only came in automatic, so I had no choice. I wish I knew how to drive stick though.

Stick also reduces braking by like 30%.
Also replacing parts for a clutch are cheaper than for auto tranny down the road.

i love stick and think Im quite good at driving one but Im getting a hella good deal from my dads best friend on a car. The only downside is its auto, but Im not turning down a rust free, low mileage 1983 datsun 280zx for 250 bucks canadian. people can call me pansies but I will have a sweet ride for cheap.

First of all u can switch gears without the clutch u just have to have the right rpm's. On the gas thing if u keep downshifting all the time ur gonna end up burning the same gas as auto. Ul only save gas if u drive on 5th gear everywhere. The price ul save some money of the start for sure.
But get the standard car, makes driving a hell lot more enjoyable.

It is much more fun and challenging with a sick to drive, talk on the phone, eat, and beat the kid in the back seat all at the same time. lol

stick is better for everything except city driving, and theres nothing more fun than quick sticking


yuck, you'll be known as the pussy from this day on if you do that. Do something manly, like cut her initials into your chest or something.

stick + female drive = death ...they just don't get along. i've experienced it first hand, and oh boy i was terrified for my life.

i'd probably get a stick though, if i leared how to drive it, and practiced a bit first.

hahahahaha, remember when I let Jenika drive my car? Of course she couldn't drive worth shit and the first major intersection she got to she choked and stalled the car at least 6-8 times. She managed to get half way across the intersection before the light turned to caution at which point I put the car in neutral and let it roll out of the intersection. Dammit, that was embarassing.
