Funny thing, the first two cars I ever drove were both stick. The first time my dad said he was going to take me out in an automatic, I didn't want to do it. "But dad, I don't know how to drive one of those, but I can drive a manual. Lets just stick with those." Yeah, I was scared to drive an automatic. hahahah
