      1. @renovatedkitchen Thankfully, I don't need to worry about a clutch, too.

        1. @scribus I don't think that would be bad. With the tourque on those, I bet you could drop the clutch from a standstill without giving it gas and it would be fine

          1. @renovatedkitchen You can do that with most diesels actually.

            1. @rotation because of the torque

              1. @renovatedkitchen Not just that. There's differences in the transmission.

                  1. @renovatedkitchen Never driven one. I'm talking about small cars.

                    1. @rotation small cars stall easily

        1. @scribus Don't want you to be busting through fences onto the wrong side of the motorway or summat.
