what a silly ass thing to take pride in.

I have never owned a car with an automatic transmission, and I am proud of that fact

I’ve owned ten cars and eight were manual transmission. Currently driving a 2020 Subaru Crosstrek with a manual. We bought it for my wife but she developed severe hip problems right after we bought it. So I made it my own - a 2" lift, smaller wheels with off road tires, aftermarket intake and exhaust, added a subwoofer under the passenger seat. I probably wouldn’t have bought it for me but now I love it. It’s been up some crazy mountain trails where the only other people I saw at the top were in jeeps or similar. It’s been in deep snow and deep sand. I’ve even broken an axle, no regrets. I use it to it’s full potential and I love being able to be in exactly the gear I want to be.
