i asked my dad about driving stickshift and he said it's easy, but when you're in traffic, it can be a pain in the ass. Also when you're up hill you have to balance something....i dont know. What do you guys think about "driving stick"? I wanna evolve into a real man by driving stick

I remember that my dad didnt wanna get me a stick cuz he thought i wouldnt pay attention to what was going on outside of the car but now ive been a way better driver since getting a stick. Also the first day was HELL! My dad took me to a park n ride and i got so frustrated and he got so frustrated that we went home. The next day when he wasnt around i took it out alone and spent a few hours just driving on the roads and getting embarassed at every stop light cuz i would stall but after that day it was ok and of course for a week or so i did stall every now and then and its embarassing as heck but you get used to it. Now that ive driven a stick for 9 Months as of yesterday I WOULD NEVER EVER GO BACK TO AN AUTOMATIC.
