I prefer stick shift❣
First, I learned on minibikes and motorcycles on how to shift then my first car was a stick shift, Datsun 240Z. My dad have me drive his Volkswagen Beetle which was stick. He had me drive to a steep hill and learn how to rock it before he got me the 240Z.
Personally, I feel like I have more control and feel safer with a stick shift.

I have a high tolerance of pain and grew higher after losing my son.
It’s all in your mind. Utilize the mind❣
