Hey guys, I just joined the car and driver "save the manuals" campaign, and wanted to post this.

Please help the cause.

BUY A MANUAL!

If interested in reading the article click on the link below.

If you want to join the campaign do one of the following.

1. Learn to drive a manual (If you don't know how)
2. Teach someone how to drive a manual.
3. Spread the word about the "save the manuals" campaign.


If you don't know how to drive a manual and you would like to learn and live in CT PM me and I would be happy to help.

Did that a while back - if there's one internet campaign that I want to work (other than Stop SOPA/PIPA) it's this one.

If it still doesn't work just google "car and driver save the manuals"

Thanks. Thinking about learning manual before I purchase a 2013, but it's hard to even start when there are no resources around. Perhaps I'll just go automatic because of traffic and the SF hills.

My 3 kids all drive manuals and want buy anything else. My wife is the only one who has a automatic but would rather have a manual. She has been driving lexus's and that is the issue with that.
But your right about kids not knowing how to use a stick. Several years ago my son broke his right wrist in a basketball accident at practice. He couldnt find anyone to drive him in his car to the ER. Finally drove himself.

If you lived near me a would gladly teach you. And please don't be intimidated by traffic or hills, when you first learn to drive stick it is somewhat of a pain, but when you morph into a manual driving master everything becomes second nature. You just have to get past the initial learning curve.

I know the feeling i drive a stick and i live in oakland and i refuse to take it to sf. Just too much to think about in a city with crazy drivers and slick hills. I can do fine on normal hills but the gradient is too much and i dont feel like eating up my clutch.
