my aunt taught me in her ford explorer when I was like 12. the day I got my eclipse, I drove it perfectly. much easier than the explorer. that thing was so hard to shift, and the shift knob would come off in your hand sometimes.

driving stick definately makes you a better driver. always have to be aware, but in an auto your mind tends to wander.

anyone else ever get in an auto and drive, and when coming to a stop, put your right f9ootr on the right side of the brake pedal, and your left foot on the left side, and slam the brakes to the floor thinking it's the clutch? I've done it several times.
