Phil, oh yes, window cranks, and I wonder what young folks make of ignition keys? We rented a car with starter on fob and couldn't figure how to turn it off. Thanks/fb
Won't drive anything but a stick shift. Honda Civic doesn't make them anymore unless you want a Honda Civic Sr (or something like that.) My Honda is a 2010 with 250,000 miles. I'm replacing worn out parts now. But it can play CDs and I still get good mileage, and it doesn't have electronic "safety" controls. Really? Do I need the machine to tell me that the car next to me is too close. What ever happened to moving your head to check the blind spot????
I remember the look of deep concern on the face of the poor guy who sold me my first car, a Corolla hatchback with five on the floor, as I lurched and jerked my way out of his lot like a rodeo clown. I had just gotten a license, but I didn’t really know how to drive a standard. I just didn’t want to drive an ‘Ozzie and Harriet’ type vehicle. Not cool enough. I eventually got better at it. That poor salesman though.
Like riding a bike. Never forget -- and can never tell.
Bozena -- The few, the brave.
Even with an automatic, you're cool Paul -- one of the coolest.
John -- Stick shifts proven to extend mental acuity into old age. I mean, look at us.
Stick shift no problem for Jersey Girls, Margo.
No worries, Sue. No Oldsmobiles, either.
All voice-controlled, Gwen, and soon driving will be, too. Save a fig. Haven't had one since Christmas.
Big red van -- you, Jim, it's you.
Absolutely, Nancy -- in control, staying alert aAnd no %@#^!! electronics!
Bob: But you now can work as parking attendant almost anywhere -- as long as not on a hill.

If you were at original MORE meeting, Reg, all forgiven. Cheers and thanks/fb
Thanks for teaching me how to drive a stick shift on my first car! Although now I'm too lazy.
