Driving a stick shift Chevy around Fayetteville, Arkansas was my learning experience! Pulling up a steep grade to a traffic light made a guy learn how to feel the friction point through his feet a necessary skill!! Really like your Cade posts.

In 1961 my stepfather bought my first car, a 1952 Ford convertible, from a guy he worked with for $125. He lived in Springfield, Ohio, about 35 miles or so north of Dayton, and when the deal was done he handed me the keys and said drive it home. I had a very limited knowledge of a 3 pedal car and to say that was a learning experience is a gross understatement.
