    Default How Many Thieves Are Needed To Steal A Car?

    At least "1" who knows how to drive a stick-shift. They don't make thieves like they used to.

    Surpised to see that stick shift cars are still sold in the US.

    My favorite cars I've had have been manual, hands down. I for one have lamented the fact that manual transmission options are nearly nonexistent now. I absolutely would still prefer to drive a manual but the other needs I have in a vehicle leave my options as nil...
