I would imagine that driving a manual transmission may becoming a lost skill among younger people. I did not have my first automatic transmission until 2011 :), after more than 40 years of driving.
 
My preference for a stick recently bit me in the @$$.
Last spring I tore something in my left knee, and working the clutch really hurt for quite some time.
Now, @ 3 weeks ago I tore something in my right rotator cuff, and now shifting has become an issue.
I still prefer a gear box to a slushbox, but there are times.....:(
 
mbwilliamn thanks for the detailed report of your trip to Bonaire. We’re heading down to stay at Buddy dive October 13-20. I appreciate your recommendations for dive sites as this is my first time there and I plan to check out some of your favs.
 
Driving stick is still pretty much standard in most of Europe, so it really depends on where you are. :D

It’s all great! Anywhere around Klein is good. North side on Bonaire has my favorites. The dive I will repeat on during a trip is La Dianns Leap and exit Karpata.

I taught both my son and daughter to drive stick before they ever got in an automatic - they're both millennials and very non-typical. They've never had a car that wasn't manual. Me neither.
 
lol - my kids wanted to learn on manual because it's more fun and you have much more control.
