Got my dream car with 34k miles earlier this year. Currently closing in on 39k.

    Nice! I wish I had the patience to learn how to drive a Manual. And the money for one too. My first cars I tried to learn in were a 91 Miata in Mariner Blue, and an 02 Miata in the purple-ish color I don’t remember the name of.

    The 91 was my dad’s, and the 02 was my mom’s. They both got totalled in Hurricane Harvey, but my dad and I still drive Mazda’s. My college car was a 2014 Mazda 2, and after the Miata got totalled, my dad got a 2013 Mazda 3. When I graduated College in 2020 we swapped cars and both are still on the road today! I’m about to hit 130k!

      I learned to drive manual in my friend’s car. When in doubt rev it up and dump the clutch.

      My sister bought a manual without knowing how to drive one.

      It’s not that hard
