Almost the only way I ever started my â69 VW bug.

I would never own a push start vehicle. I don't even like having a chipped key. They keep making everything more complicated & computerized, so they can charge more money for it. I had to replace a valve stem on my tire & they said it would be $90, or I could get a traditional valve stem that doesn't activate the "low tire" light for $16 including installation. Since I'm not a drooling idiot, I went with the $16 valve stem. Now my "Low Tire" light never shuts off but, also because I'm not a drooling idiot, I can figure out when my tires are low without the warning light.
I have a fully loaded premier package 2015 Dodge Charger. I only have 6,000 miles on it because it has too many features that I donât understand đźđ
It took me the longest time to grasp the concept of the push button start! Everytime I heard push start, my head went to the same place yours did. Lol...soooođ yes, I definitely relate!!
I had my car in for maintenance and the dealer gave me a new model car with a push button start. The car was running when they brought it to me, so I did not notice the push button.

@@dannygjk Many 50s American trucks had the starter button on the floor. The couple times I drove one, I felt I needed 3 feet : Clutch (or brake in Neut) Gas, and starter. Had to be quick.

I used to work at a packing house and one guy who was on a forklift had an old Ford tractor with a bin trailer in his way so he turned the key and it didn't even crank over so he assumed that the battery was dead. So he pushed in with the forklift but he left it with the key on, throttle on, and in gear. The tractor moved itself out of the way and kept going and going, straight to a giant stack of brand new pallets. He got it stopped in time but could have easily gotten hurt or killed. He didn't know about the starter button.
I understood you perfectly. Every car I've ever owned has been a standard and it's time for me to get a new vehicle. I don't want to own an automatic, but it's so difficult to find standards. I want a truck, but I don't know what to do.
I can relate. Every time I go through a certain drive thru, the guy says "I love your truck--it;s a standard too!" It's not working snapper-whipper, I'm not selling!
Hi penny. I'm a gen xer and around your age. You made me laugh. If you can't laugh while others are laughing at you , then you need to chill. Life is too short.

On the posative side you never have to worry about any of these younger generations stealing your car. That is why I always get straight shift pickups. No one wants to borrow it.
Thirty years ago, a friend was moving into a new house and had rented a moving van. A group of friends had offered to help with the move. When my wife and I showed up, everyone was frantic because the only van that was available was a manual and no one could drive it. Fortunately, both my wife and I could drive stick.
Amen! All my vehicles have had "push start". My current 2015 dually has a G56, manual six speed. The clutch safety switch went out and i bypassed it, now it's like the older trucks I've had, no longer have to push the clutch in. It'll crank up in gear if you forget to take it out of gear.
Had an interesting misunderstanding with a co-worker once. We were talking about celebrity crushes and this young lady said she always thought Uncle Jesse was cute. I was a little confused why a gal her age would have had a crush on Denver Pyle, Uncle Jesse on Dukes of Hazzard. She informed me she meant Uncle Jesse from Full House, John Stamos. Oops! Wrong generation.
I had a standard 20 years ago . Yup , it was a push start standard. Came in handy a couple times until I replaced . It was a Mazda . Open the door , put key in ignition and push while you run along side the car . When you get up to a good speed , jump in , the key is already turned on and you pop the clutch . Easy Peasy .
I had a "puah start" car from the 60's. Even the gears were push button. So they are not really new. I also had an MGA sports car my brother let me drive. It started by pushing it down the hill, jump in and pop the clutch. Ahhh. Good times.
I felt old when as a special education teacher, I walked into classroom and heard the 3rd grade teacher telling the class she WAS a 3rd grader on 9/11.
