And where are you from? And how old? Not "do you" but just if you know how.

I'm in the US, mid 30s and can (and do) drive a manual transmission.

No. Midwestern United States, elder millennial.

I'd be willing (even curious) to learn, but manuals just aren't as common here, so it never came up. Meh. It's not a pride or identity issue for me. It's just driving. Whatever.

I get the gist of it, though. I imagine I'd just have to get into the habit and muscle memory of it. Then again, maybe I'm underestimating it. Again, I don't particularly care. It's just a machine to get me to work.
