Yes. 35. Hungary.

Driving those since I have a driver's license, because 99% of the cars are manual here. Actually when buying new, it still costs more to this day to have automatic.

California. 62. Been driving a manual for over 40 years. Most recently a six-speed.

I learned to drive on a standard in Maine, and my first car was a standard. I am now in my mid 30s,

I enjoy them but God would I not one in LA that and they seem almost a non option now outside of high end race cars

Canada, mid 30. Can, but don't. First car was manual. 2003 Malibu v6

I have an EV now and plan to stay with ev

USA, mid-30's, yes I can drive cars and bikes with manual transmissions.

Chile, 38, and I've been driving manual all of my life... Well, until a month ago when we finally sold my old trusty 2005 Yaris for a new automatic car so my wife can also drive (my old car was manual and had no drive assistance, it was heavy to turn, and I was the only one in my family that was capable of parallel parking it)

You left gender off of your list of questions. That'd be interesting. I can drive manual transmission. My first 5 cars were all manual until I got married and had to give it up "for safety". I'm from all over the US, but learned to drive in the Midwest. I'm old by internet standards.

One fun fact for y'all; There seems to be evidence that supports the claim that driving a manual transmission vehicle is actually safer for individuals with ADHD, contrary to popular belief.

I've only done it twice but it went surprisingly ok. I could do it if I had to. USA in my 30's

20s, Southern US, and yes. It's weird seeing folks who don't since most of the shitboxes we drove were

I'm from the Netherlands. I've been driving since 2009 and I've never driven an automatic car. I drive (semi) truck since 2019 and have never driven a manual truck.

19, Vermont. I learned to drive stick on a big Kubota tractor at 14 lol.

US, 47, and nope.

US, 21, and can kinda drive a manual.

I'll stall out a few times cause I don't have practice but I'll be able to get where I need to go

29 southern US. I've been daily driving since 2014. People get obsessed or weird about it. There's valid reasons to drive automatic or manual, just don't go huffing and puffing one is better than the other

I'm in my early 40s in the US. I learned to drive a manual when I got my license ~25 years ago but haven't driven one since that day. I rode a motorcycle for a few years as well, so I'm pretty sure I could manage if I absolutely had to.

USA, early 30s, drive manual mustang GT daily

Born before the A-Team existed, drive both. Prefer my sports cars to be manual but would be happy with DCTs. I have not had good experiences in terms of longevity with automatics. And no, I don't consider DCTs to be automatics.

I'm learning how to drive now and I picked manual transmission. Because it's a lot easier to switch to automatic later if I would need to.

Asked some younger guys at driving school why they picked automatic, and their response was that they believe manual will go away in cars and it will all be automatic.

Maybe so. But it still can't hurt to know it. Many old cars will be around for a long time.

40-something, Eastern US, can drive manual, haven't for years because I threw my back out in DC traffic driving stick.

And where are you from? And how old?

Defuq kinds of questions are these? Is this not against site rules?

Mid 50's, northeast US, yes I can. I don't but I used to.

Yes, since I was 12 years old.

US, 37, yes.
