I LOVE MANUAL TRANSMISSION
(sh.itjust.works)
I just want to get to work.
What about lifetime transmission fluid and no dipstick to check level/color?

What is that retro-looking thing on the right?
(Also why are my question marks getting cut off? I typed 9 of them but only 3 show up.)
If you made an electric conversion and used an induction motor it could still be stick! Induction motors have a narrow range of useful rmps so the transmission is still needed!

Hurst "Lightning Rods" from the 80s. Basically a flashy way to manually shift an automatic transmission.

My kid is learning to drive and I wanted to rent/get ahold of a manual to teach that too, but nothing doing. You can't find one to rent and I'm not buying a whole car for a few weeks' training.

There aren't any BEVs with this kind of manual transmissions. They just have 1 gear and are operated like automatics. And I am definitely not going back to DDD fuels (detonating dino diarrhea).
