Anyone else drive a car with a manual transmission (not OT, I promise)?

[prozac4312]

Is there a trick to clutching without it feeling like you're wrecking the toe box every time you do it? lol

I swear my next car needs to be auto.

I think this probably belongs in the GENERAL FORUM. But I used to use the middle of my foot as possible. But with wearable shoe trees, it's never a problem.

I bring a pair of beater shoes and drive with them, I can't drive my cars (all stick cars) with J's on its just not right lol

 

[marvin hagler]

this will enable you to use the middle of your foot. But yeah an automatic transmission is a lot more comfortable to drive.

LOL

im glad i dont have to worry about this anymore

vans/chucks FTW

 

[dro3000]

I drive a manual, always have always will and I always worry about extra creasing on my left shoe because of the clutch. Not much you can do besides driving an auto which IMO is a complete waste of a car.

Yeah, that would be a living nightmare.  Hyped up limited cars made with quality that would compete with cars made in the 70's.

I drive stick and never worry about creasing because I always have 2-3 DS pairs on reserve and if I don't I'll just buy another pair. I'm a baller like that.

 

[ispeakjewleo]

If you're worried about creasing your shoes then you should have got an auto. 
I crease the hell out of my shoes when I'm driving but it doesn't bother me one bit. 

 

[slim420]

its not the creasing that bothers me, its the white midsole on the back getting dirty that bothers me.

 

[hybridsoldier23]

People still worry about creasing?

 

[a55a5in11]

i just dont worry about it.
i dont understand how people can drive a stick with bare feet or sandals on regularly. like i can do it once or twice but that stuff messes with me on the "sweet spot"

 

[azndood21]

Having a pair of driving shoes is the best thing you can do. I keep a pair of chucks in the car because the sole is so thin it'll make your driving smoother

 

[brooklynnyc3000]

just switch shoes dude

 

[jaehow]

What the last 2 peeps said. I wear hydros when I drive if I don't wanna mess my shoes up. I have a 5-speed now but I did this when I had an auto. I'll never base my decision of transmission off shoes.

 

[kramer]

I can shift without putting in the clutch
