Gas prices are at an all time high here...even this fuel friendly little beast is expensive to run...time to start riding my motorcycle(s), me thinks.

Don't shift. Throw it in 3rd and drag the clutch. Oh wait, that only works in the F250.

One of my grandmothers also used to be an enthusiast of manual transmissions, and I actually don't remember exactly what was the reason which drove her into automatics. I know it was a health-related issue. But anyway, even a cousin of mine who wasn't a car enthusiast at all now only drives automatics. I guess it won't take long for me, my father and 2 uncles to be the last ones who actually drive a manual through my entire extended family.
