He is the only one who wanted to learn. Mostly, I had an automatic transmission when the kids learned to drive so a stick wasn’t available. <br /><br />True confession even by the later 1070s, most cars had an automatic, so many of my generation can’t shift gears either. <br /><br />My first car was a Chevy pickup with a “ three on the tree”, so I had to learn. (dad had already taught me anyway).Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17269114655802698386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11628754.post-62165301495445540712020-02-08T08:39:15.568-05:002020-02-08T08:39:15.568-05:00Do your kids know how to drive a stick?

The usually negative characteristics that the Boomer generation describes the younger generations as having (not knowing cursive, not being able to drive a stick, everyone getting a participation trophy) is due to the parent's and society that raised them. How can you blame the generation itself?<br /><br />Oops! Sorry, should have put those Qs under "Ask Hoosierboy".

Needless to say, I am not the ethnicity that deserves good service. In all fairness, there are exceptions. <br /><br />The founding fathers considered having the government in charge of food distribution. Can you imagine the fiasco equivalent to the PO bring food in a timely manner?<br /><br />Bernie just cannot win, cannot. Please!<br /><br />I know how to use a shift, but only if I have a picture of the shift pattern. However, a little sketch works. Yes, when I occasionally drove a shift, I just could not remember the shift, but I had the clutch work down pat, even on a hill.
