I still dont understand why stick shift is better than automatic or maybe it isnt... Anyone care to explain?

If you learn on a stick you will learn to drive any car you may come up on because once you learn its hard to forget But auto is so much easier. I would choose auto any day over a stick

Thank you H2o. I was pretty sick. Glad I didnt end up in the hospital.

What do you think it was?

Just heard the news that Roberts worker has covid. His mom has it. They said he wasnt around Robert when he was exposed.

You better go get checked out.

could there be some Maltize (sp) in the mix ???
or is that just the color and cut ??

The long pic with long hair shows his natural coat grown out.
We considered part Maltese, but then I met some that live near... they are tiny and dead white. With a close trim, Scoot's face looks poodle-esque... pointy nose. But we really don't know. When he plays he acts like a terrier... 'kills' his toys whacking them on the floor.

The only benefit I can think of is it can help you control your speed a bit more by downshifting and using the engine to slow you down rather than braking. It's more fun on hilly country roads.

everything I look up says you will have other symptoms like fever or throwing up and I dont have anything else. Im at a loss. I got rid of the tomatoes 2 weeks ago. eating bland food. I had a grilled cheese today. Been eating rice for 2 days. I thought I was better. My stomach feels ok.

A stick is not necessarily better, but back when some of us learned to drive, there were no automatics.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Heck, when we wanted to stop, we had to throw an anchor out the window.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

You mean they had breaks? hahaa

Something went out on my stick van and I had to always park on a hill . I would give it a push going down hill, jump in and pop the clutch. Its the only way I could get back and forth to work.
