Car won't start? Push it down a hill, avoid running over my foot, and climb in before it pulls away from you.

This is how I got to nursery school on at least one occasion I can remember.

I love manual transmission, and miss it badly. It was awesome getting out of both mud and snow. Plus, I felt like I was actually driving the car, not guiding it.

Where's my manual electric car?!

What do you mean electric motors have no transmissions?!

They do though, it's just that most are single speed reduction boxes (unless you've got a Taycan).
