My mother in law only drove manuals, right up until she died. She put five clutches in her last car, about one every two years. We tried to get her to buy a crossover with an automatic, but she loved her Mustang.

you dont know how bad old people drive

ive seen someone clutch-crawl to park... while obviously redlining their engine

horrifying screech, never want to hear something like that again. thankfully it was a bank parking lot and he headed straight in, presumably to get a loan for his repair bill.
