My 28 year old son just bought a 2000 Porsche Boxter, a standard shift. He’s self-taught driving the thing but he drives it like he’s somebody’s grandfather. When we visited him, my husband drove the Porsche and redlined it - my son nearly fainted. Man, that car wanted to go, though.
Me too... I thought we'd run a pass play for him up the middle of the field at some point... Hopefully we utilize him in that way again soon...
I personally believe that automatic transmissions should be outlawed. The only reason I own a vehicle with an automatic transmission is that I haven't found an acceptable 4×4 pickup truck (my tailgate vehicle) with a manual transmission. My "fun" car and my daily vehicle are both five speeds.
M gen x and always think Millennials were all born after 2000
Gen Z, the zoomers
Why pay for the entire tach if you're not going to use it?
Wow, your husband is a lucky guy. Whenever I “redline” the accelerator on the highway all I hear from my wife is slow down—now!
You must not have tried avocado toast, cause if you had, you'd be zooming out in your manual to get it
Drive? What’s that? Us millennials have our avocado toast delivered by a UberEats driver.
Looked like Rayonte Brown was in at te quite a bit. He's probably in for blocking.
Are you saying your chauffeur can't drive a stick shift?
Seemed to be rotating a lot of their TEs, Harris was in there early too. Didn't recall seeing Russ Dixon who made a few catches earlier in the year. Wonder if he is hurt or not the blocker and/or receiver they are now utilizing.
I'm a millennial, born in 1989. I also had a manual car for about 5 years. When I bought my new car (in 2016) I told the sales guy I wanted another manual to get better gas mileage. He told me the newer automatic transmissions get better mileage now. So that's the only reason I have an automatic transmission. That's really all I care about in a car. Subaru for the AWD, and good gas mileage.
I noticed that he made a good block of the outside linebacker on the Devontae Houston touchdown.
