    I just want to make one thing absolutely clear. I will happily tell you own a manual transmission Tacoma, with a scoop by the way, but I have never, ever, ever once claimed to know the first thing about how to drive it!

    And how does swimming fit I to it, is it part of crossfit? Or essential oils?

    You absolutely don’t have the upper body strength to drive a manual. Mom says she tried teaching you but you ended up getting frustrated and you made her cry.

    I also feel the same way about people who can’t swim.

    If he didn’t have the common sense to learn how to not die in the one thing that covers our planet the most, that’s on him. I call his snacks and his shoes.

    This threads a crackup! I run marathons so I need to use the clutch for recovery days. Rest days I drive my auto.

    no scoop. and i feel that people that cant swim are cowards and cant overcome basic obstacles in life. same as feel about those that cant drive a manual. i have little respect for either as a human beings in general. if you pay attention im not judging automatic owners. just the ones that CANT drive a manual. i got bad feet. i get the purpose of automatics. drag cars are better with them, offroad generally is better as well. and triffic in my truck makes me question the decision. Im just here to say

    IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO DRIVE A MANUAL THEN YOU ARE NOT AUTOMOTIVE ENTHUSIAST AND YOUR NOT DONE LEARNING TO DRIVE.
