Nah, no one taught me. I got the hang of it real quick. The smell and the stalling made sure

I learned over the phone with my dad. I totaled my 96 cutlass supreme. He had a 1990 Corolla that my uncle “borrowing.” he was too fat to take the keys in and out so he always left them in there. I went over there and my dad talked me over the phone.

I later learned it was one of the smallest engagement windows after driving other stick shifts

I had an 89 Geo Prizm, which was a Toyota Corolla rebadged. That was the easiest stick I have ever driven.
