Yes Justin can drive a standard. All of his trucks have been standards and he says it is all he will ever drive! He wants me to learn how to drive one better, but I don't like them!

In Theory he can. In practise..... don;t think so. Wouldn't let me get a stick for our last car.

My FH will ONLY buy a standard, and he absolutely Hates driving my car because it is an automatic. I once told him to buy an automatic, because they had it in stock and he wouldn't have to wait for it to be ordered, and he flipped out! lol.

Matthew can. He can also drive a semi. But he will tell anyone he talks to that I drive a stick better then he does! lol. And he's the one who came from the farm!! HA HA!! He's not bad at it, he just can't do half the things I can while driving one.

My FH's a truck driver so yeah he def can drive standard. I can drive his truck too although I don't on the road since I don't have a CDL license.

Both of us can drive a stick. I prefer them really. that's why I like to drive the Mustang. You can rev it up more and (like Brandi said) makes me feel more powerful. I also think it makes people pay more attention to the driving.

I don't know if Sean can or not. All of his cars have been automatic. I am going to assume that he can because when he was buying his last car, he was looking at the two seater sporty modle in standard. I see no need for the extra work and just always get an automatic. I don't need to rev things up to be powerful.

That's kind of the way I feel about it. I would never buy one for me.

I agree with Lacey..I really see no need to exert the extra effort nor do I feel that it will make me feel anymore powerful or in control behind the wheel!! As far as I know Joel does not know how to drive a stick!!!

He used to suck...but I taught him how to drive one really well, and now his daily driver car is a manual....he loves driving them now! :)

Josh has only owned manual transmissions, so I should hope he can drive them!!!

Yep (and so can I BTW) Eric was raised on a farm I haven't seen anything he can't drive.

Yep, he can. The car he drove when we met was standard, although I insisted any car he bought afterward had to automatic, because he wouldn't teach me to drive it.

Yep, Clayton can drive a standard. He owned a stick, then when he got a new truck it was an automatic. About a year ago he got another new truck and I told him that he needed to get a stick. I just like the way he drives them better.

Yep. He keeps insisting he's going to teach me how to drive his truck, but I keep putting it off. Knowing my luck, I'd crash it or something!

Yep, he can. The car he had before his current one was a standard.
