    Interesting how few people in the US use manual gear changing in the car.

      @adiwan Manual transmission was called the best anti-theft device in North America because of how few people drive it.

          @adiwan it was a gag I saw somewhere on the internet. Not like an actual piece of advice or an award or anything.

      @adiwan so little that people have questioned me why they’re called “standard”

        @awl I just looked up at a German car-dealing website, on which people can offer their car for sale, and found out that about 37% of all cars there are automatic. I thought this number would be lower.
