That’s odd because I like the control a clutch pedal gives me in heavy traffic. And I drive a 15 year old diesel!

- wkat4242 3y agoWhen I still drove I hated the way I had to keep my foot on the clutch in traffic jams. Or constantly switch to neutral. The clutch on my car was heavy. That's why I got an automatic. But now I live in a city where I can take the metro to work and I don't own a car anymore. I hope I'll never need to drive again, I hate driving so much.

- scott_w 3y agoIf I showed you a photo of my car, “new” is not a word you’d use to describe it.
- BluePen7 3y agoI'm only 30, but at this point a 15 year old car still feels kinda "new" to me. Up until a few months ago, I drove a 2008 Lexus, felt perfectly modern. But in regards to driving a manual in traffic, does a diesel not make it easier? An engine suited to lower RPMs, but with more torque, seems perfectly suited to clutching in/out to shuffle along.
