Hey MadisonMPG,
I live near you, and I can drive a manual. If you wanted me to test drive the car so you are not just relying on someone else's word, it could be arranged. Let me know.

As far as special shifting techniques go, I had a car that had to be started in 2nd gear... unless when you were coming to a stop you downshifted into 1st and used some engine braking. I have heard others say that downshifting worked for them, whether or not it's the same technique I used, I can't be sure.
