Can any of you drive with the stick?

No, Mr. High & Mighty, but I'd really like to learn. Never had the opportunity to do so. My dad always had automatics around. One day, I'll buy a beater with a manual trans and learn on that. One of my life's goals.   O0

The family truckster is an '08 Ford Expedition Limited - black
My work car is an '11 Lincoln MKX


Ok, I'm gonna need for you to adopt me so you can will those great vehicles to me! O0

LOL I hope I survive these vehicles by a few decades - though the Expedition is SOLID.  Thanks  :)


And for the record, I had 5 cars prior to the expedition, and they were all stick shifts  O0 My first car was a VW Jetta w/ 125k miles, I drove it to 175k miles and totalled it...   The last one was a BMW 335i.  

There is just something comforting about having your family in a 6000 lb cement block with air bags, while others drive around texting and emailing from their driver's seat.

My new Jeep is the first automatic I have ever owned. I taught myself how to drive standard in my 71' VW beetle which was my first car and also one of my most favorite cars that I have owned. Want to get another one someday and hotrod it.

I have a ford f150 that i did all type of modifications too...
it is my everyday driver  :'(

Had a Kia spectra but it went with the woman almost 2 years ago  :-\

Last time I answered this question on this forum; I had a 2006 Mazda 6S V6.  I have since sold that and replaced it with a 2006 Toyota RAV4.  I needed 4 wheel drive and bike hauling capacity.  It suits me well.

Our "family car" is a 2012 Dodge Journey AWD RT. My current back and fourth to work car is an old 1997 Chrysler Concorde Lxi. I plan on replacing it soon with a Pickup Truck. I miss owning a truck. I hate borrowing or renting a truck every time I have to do projects around the house. With a new home, there will be plenty of need for a truck because I will be doing much landscaping etc...my self.

Drive a 2012 Chevrolet Colorado Crew Cab 4 WD- all black - purchased it last May- it is the end of that model run but I like the boxy lines rather than the rounded lines of many trucks today. Can't beat a Chevy Truck

My daily driver is a 2011 Mazdaspeed 3



My toy is a 1990 Miata that is a dedicated track car.  This pic was taken at Summit Point.  I've since gotten a trailer to tow the car as it is a brutal ride to/from the track.  Gutted (loud) interior, full Spec Miata suspension and race seats are not conducive to a 46 year old driving 3-10 hours to the track.  I will start to pull it in the spring with my former DD, a '98 F150 (guess the color).
