I actually enjoy driving our pick up with a 5 speed stick trans. I would not enjoy constant shifting in the city or suburban areas.

I have a 97 Escort 5 speed beater that I drive to the park & ride, and pretty much had only stick shifts between 1973 and 1994 or so. Being stuck in traffic on an uphill stretch is hard on the leg, but it just got tired, there was never any lasting pain from it. While our other 2 vehicles now are automatic, I still enjoy shifting, and it's not the same using an up/down button on the side of a shiftlever like on our Escape.

Not a poll, an attempt to seek a predetermined answer.
Peace be on you...Sorry, I am not a Poll expert, All I wnated to know:
If anyone is having pain in their left leg, is it due to clutch pressing, especially if one drives in congested city.

I think, it would be better if one ask suggestions for question from you all good friends, before posting a poll.
Good wishes.
