    As a guy who dailys a manual and weekend woriors a automatic car from the 50s it gets even more confusing because dispute not having a clutch it does have a floor dimmer switch so I still have 3 pedals and if I screw it up at night then sorry about blinding the guy in front of me with my upgraded led headlights

      My parents 77 ford maybe f-150 (not sure if they were called that yet–actually I think it was something starting with an E) had the floor dimmer switch.

      On topic though, I have driven manuals for 31 years now and currently have 3 5-speeds and 2 automatics in my driveway and I’ve never done this. What’s wrong with you people?

        For me i suppose it doesn’t help that im also experienced 30s and 20s cars that have button pedals so everything but the brakes feel like a dimmer switch so I guess that also doesn’t help
