Aww good luck with it!
I've always driven manual cars ;o
And I almost got myself killed when I first drove an automatic.
I tried to reach for the clutch and just ended up hitting the brake, and it kept happening.

Thanks! I appreciate it. We should have the card paid off in about 4 months so that's great. And then a new car! New to us anyway.
Oh no. I imagine that I would be in a similar situation if I tried to drive a stick. lol.

Ive never driven before so Im probably gonna learn how to drive a stick first. But I assume an automatic would be a lot easier. When my gf and I move Ill be able to probably try again. We live where there's a lot of hills and people so I dont wanna do that xD
Im happy you can be able to get a new car! Thats always nice.
That new car smell xD lol

I've always driven an automatic. My sister has always driven a manual. It's whatever you are used to and are comfortable with.

I think Id be more comfortable with an automatic but we dont have one so we have to drive what we have right now.
We take the bus most of the time anyways. xp

Yup! There's that, too. I think that's why my sister got used to a manual. Her first car (old and cheap) was a manual. She just got used to it and since she's pretty much driven a truck since then a manual just works for her. I'd have to spend too much $$ getting the clutch replaced if I switched to a manual.

Yeah. My gfs dad got her that car and I think he bought it off a friend. I think mg wants a automatic but we dont have the money to buy a car. At least money that we can spend. We need to save up to move somewhere else.

Saving up money is hard!! I need to be saving so I can pay the property tax on my car in December. I haven't made much progress though.

The great thing about having an old ass car is that my property tax is like nil. lol. I think it was 23 bucks last time? I can't remember exactly.
So I'm not looking forward to getting that increase when we get our new car.
I'm hoping to get something that's in the 10's. But I will totally take something in the 00's.
