My dad taught me how to drive a stick when I was like 11, and me and him are still the only ones in our family that know how to drive one. Its hilarious to see my mom drive one. She can start one and get it into first where you dont gotta use the clutch, but even thats a challenge. I enjoy being able to grab a gear whenever I want to, so I like driving them. Once, we were going to my aunts house, and her house is at the top of this really steep hill, you gotta really motor up it hard if your not in a lower gear. So coming back down my mom had it in 1st, and we pulled onto the street in town and she was still in 1st and started asking why it wouldnt speed up and sounded so loud. Eventually she figured it out...

Thats the thing, her car is a stick, so its beyond me why she cant comprehend the gated automatic.

Oh well lol
