    DS16 is teaching me to drive manual

    I've never driven a manual before and DS is teaching me in his car, it's hilarious. I havn't even gotten out of the driveway without stalling, think I'm too old for this lol.

    Luck is exactly what I need lol, thanks Netix. Yesterday I got the car to the end of our street with only stalling twice.

    See that's an achievement in itself. Soon you'll only be stalling once or twice a trip (usually at the lights when you're first in line and you think everyone's watching you )

    Leckert I was pretty proud of myself and Netix no column shift, he will never let me drive the Kingswood once it's on the road. He bought himself an old Commodore so he's teaching me in that.

    Aww, DS, I had visions of you in the old Kingswood! Or did he say "Not the Kingswood!" (lol, sorry)

    A commodore should be okay, they're not too hard for shifting.
