Hello My name is David and im new to the forum and making the switch from auto to manual. Had a brief lesson from my uncle on how to drive stick but that was to get the car moving and all. Lol never taught me on the proper ways to stop the car. Forum is great hope to learn a lot before i make my car purchase.

Welcome. There are quite a few tC owners on here, so I'm sure there will be a quick answer to any question you may have about them.

...before re-entering the rest of the internet. You wouldn't want to track any StanardShift.com out into it, it's already dirty enough out there.

Welcome, fellow Chicagoan!

The best way to drive in the city of Chicago is to not drive during rush hour. And watch those red light cameras. Unfortunately many of them seem to trigger arguably earlier than they should. Which part of the city do you live in?
