And what car did you learn in?

  I didn’t learn to drive in a vehicle with a clutch, but I did learn to drive vehicles with clutches! I love manual transmission cars. Been fighting the urge to make a poor financial decision and scoop one up before they’re gone.

  Whatever the driving school had, I have no idea what car it was.

  My second car was manual in high school. It was super fun to drive once I got used to it. I’ve had a manual for about 13 years and since switched to an auto for the last 9. Only reason I’d go back would be a fun sporty car but I’d probably be more likely to get a quick EV with one pedal driving at this point.

  An 88 jeep Comanche with a blown up power steering pump and you had to hold it in reverse.

  Yes, and in the land of automatics no less, and on a '99 Celica GT. It was mom’s car, but I drove it like it was mine.

  I learned stick in my 30s after driving an automatic up until then. Humbling to have to learn to drive again at that point in your life.

    I’m learning to manually change gears for my first time in my 30s, but on a bike.

    Agreed, it is incredibly humbling. I’ve been driving for over half my life, and now I’m struggling to operate a vehicle all over again.
