[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 2572370, member: 4319"] Completely depressing. When work trucks and "sporty" cars started losing the manual as even an OPTION, man, what a disgusting time. My buddy has a 1988 F-250 4WD he bought with a bench seat, rubber mats, and a 5 speed. Still has it. 2 engines, 1 transfer case, several clutches, probably 500,000 miles. I had a manual Tacoma, it got totaled by an old lady, and I couldn't find a stick in time to get back on the road and be one with it. I've been stuck with Toyota's shitbox 5 speed auto for 180,000 miles. I want(ed) a Legacy GT for a DD. They recently dropped the manual. On a turbocharged car. A turbocharged Subaru at that. Solidifies my decision to never, ever by a new car again. Price on used manuals will rise. I see it happening now. If you can't drive a stick you should not be allowed to get a driver's license.
