bored.......)? My husband and I just bought a car its standard, He drives it all the time because I can't drive standard which means that I am usually stuck at home when he is at work because I can't drive it!!! Lately he has been trying to teach me how to drive. I can't seem to figure it out and I gave up because I really don't think that I am capable of doing all that stuff at once. Well to make a long story short. Today I was thinking about the new movie called the ruins and how at the end her only escape was driving a standard car. Now I don't know if this would ever happen to me but has anyone else ever thought about this..... Your only escape is a standard car....So your pretty much screwed because you don't know how to drive a standard car!!!!! Needless to say i am now determined to learn!! Sorry I bored you to tears!!! But hopefully I inspired someone!!! heheheehehe
haha sorry guys sorry i meant stick shift
 
Been driving them since 14.Simple-Clutch in,1st gear,Release ..Repeat for 2,3,4,(5 if an option).Ask your beau if he has driven a 3 on the tree,or ever double -clucthed.Tell him someone told you that the old school way was down,up,down,and not to ride to long or you'll burn it out .(That's the 3-Reverse up,1 Down,2 Up,3 Down).
 
Standard car is another word for "stick-shift" or "manual" car, yes.

I used to drive all types of cars at work, so I can't relate. (From Hyundais to Maseratis") And my car is a 5-speed.

BUT, if I didn't know how to drive standard, I'd probably ignore the car and RUN. lol

(BTW, your husbands situation is what I created at my home, no one can drive my car except for me!! bwuahahaha! [but there are other cars they can drive])
 
By standard, she means it's a stick shift.
I can have you driving that car in one afternoon.
 
Thats the exact reason I learned how to drive a manual car when I first started driving...I didnt want to be stuck not knowing how to drive one if I ever needed to. I suggest you learn cause if you only have one car you may be screwed if you really need it. It will take some time (I didnt learn in a day or 2 either...more like a week or 2 lol) but keep practicing and you'll get it.
