learning to drive a manual transmission

The dying breed! If we must live in a car-based society, it should engaging and enjoyable at least. The benefits include: makes even the most boring cars more fun, simple theft deterrent (until more people accept my recommendation), very good vibes when done correctly. Happy shifting everyone!

a well-seasoned carbon steel pan
