    Ha! That's great! :D

    I've been trying to convince The Girl™ to learn a manual transmission. So far the most persuasive argument has been "If you get caught in a Zombie Apocalypse, and need to get away fast, you don't want the last words you say to be 'Oh Crap! It's a stick!'"

    I have no shift pattern on my manual, which should slow them down even if they can shift gears. Then again, there is the funny key thing. :lol:

    Yea but if the battery's dead, as most likely to be the case in a Zombie Apocalypse, at least you could push start the stick shift vehicle!

    Another good point, but that always worries me when my car goes somewhere that's not a MINI dealership :eek6:

    Good point, but mine never has, as of yet. I guess I would have to draw it out for them.
