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

You'll learn to drive if you have to. Try having cars honking at you for stalling in the middle of an intersection. That happened to me in my first car (87 Dodge Shadow Turbo).
