drive stick shift

I can’t remember ever owning an automatic.

Driving automatic actually confuses me…

I’ve done it…and I could drive to the hospital if I needed….but otherwise….thank you automatic.

A few weeks ago, my bf Jon was sick but insisted we take the recycling to the recycling center that day. Well, he happened to be rather drugged on cough medicine, so he handed me the keys to his WRX and got in the passenger seat. AHHHHH!!!! He made me drive and I only killed it 4 times! Not once did I grind the gears….this is not to say that I’m going to go out and buy a stick!!! I was completely dumbfounded as to what I was doing! But I did it.

I’ve only had one lesson but I’ll consider it done because all I really wanted was to learn the basics. Cool but difficult because I have two left feet!

I do prefer an automatic…but it’s really awesome to know how to drive a stick shift. It surprises people sometimes too. This is a GREAT goal to have.

I’ll never again drive an automatic :-)

i was actually driving a stick! and i didn’t suck at it! ...its a start…

Hondas are very forgiving for learning to drive stick. It is harder to pop the clutch on them than it is on some other brands…just something to keep in mind. Definitely worth doing, and a lot of fun!

Its not that hard to drive stick shift if you have a fun fast car
