You dropped this vid the same day I bought a F150 5 speed for the sole purpose of teaching my girls to drive a manual transmission. My daughter loves this vid and this channel. Thanks for doing you, Ross.
Manual transmissions, the ultimate car security, ha. I love driving a stick and remember learning the concept of it while playing the video game, Test Drive, back in the early 90s. I first learned on a 5spd Toyota pickup and easily got the hang of it in 30mins.
Oh man, that's well preserved T2. It's a different feel on the pedals in a T2 because they are hinged from the bottom. The one I had, reverse was sometimes difficult, if you don't push down in the right spot it ended up in 2nd . I had no idea they would explode in value. I am a really big vintage Audi junkie and have a couple of rare ones.
Everyone I know who drives a stick says it's fun, I've been driving for 10+ years and have never learned, but this vid has motivated me to give it another go. 🧠🌩
It's easy. Literally if you go out in a manual you should pick it up in an hour (obviously you will stall). After driving for a week it becomes second nature. It gives you so much more control over the car; you can feel how the car reacts to how you treat it. Eventually the gear stick will pretty much become an extention of your arm, and in doing so, you and the car act in unison. The US is a culture obsessed with cars, and petrol and oil, so I dont understand how gear sticks are so unpopular... I imagine it's because you learn when you're 16 so are probably still a bit dumb. In the UK, if you learnt how to drive an automatic you would get laughed at.
Was wondering why this video popped up in my subscriptions. Oh it’s the guy I got trading tips from. Luckily I’m old and I know how to drive stick. Got motorcycles down too. 👍🏾
Beautiful rides you have, Ross. Great video btw. I've been reading your day trading ebook, watching your videos and trading with you in the mornings for a while now. I have a lot to learn in the day trading biz but slowing getting better each day. You have taught me so much! I share the passion for cars with you as well. I have a little channel called SeSpeedShop. I do some custom car fabrication and builds. Anyway, huge fan of yours and so glad to find your tire kickers channel. Love it!
Omg thank you ive watched other vids for this but ive finally got a truck after years of needing one and its from mid eights and stick and while i can go in circles pretty well lol ive had to have my mom do all my driving. Hopefully this will help
YAY! NEW EPISODE OF TK! I ADMIT, I HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO DRIVE STICK LOL instructions unclear, i tried it with my friend's car and we ended up on top of a tree
You must be enjoying the beautiful weather we have had the last few days, looks like the good weather is ending tomorrow. I currently drive a 2008 vw Jetta with the 2.5l manual, makes driving it so much more fun.
You can't imagine how weird is watching a video like this from Europe. Here most people drive manual transmisions, it's like someone is trying to teach you how to breathe :)
I am driving manual cars for 12 years now still watched the whole Video 🤷♂️My daily is an automatic due to stop and go situations on the Autobahn. Anyways, I really like how every thing in this VW sounds mechanic 😁 modern cars have like 50km of wires in them, this one has maybe 200m 😂
I have a simulator setup for my Xbox 360. I can play my racing games like I am driving a real car. I have a steering wheel that turns all the way around like a car, pedal set with working clutch, and a 6 speed gear shift with reverse. And yes, I always drive a manual.
Haha funny to watch bcs although now I'm driving an automatic, here in Portugal you learn to drive manual from the start and automatic gear cars are kinda rare.
I drive a stick shift car every day. It is fun first but automatic transmission is way better in urban areas where we have stop and go multiple times in a driving session. On the other hand the manual transmission is easier to fix because it is less complex. So both are great in a different way.
The first manual car I drove was a c7 zo6. Drove it during rush hour. Stalled it at every light almost on my way home. Had the roof off. Everyone was staring and taking videos.
Another great episode of tire kickers Ross! 🔥🔥🔥 I actually learned to drive on a stick shift! My first car was a stick and I had to either learn how to drive it or ruin the transmission! Lol! Once again you deliver another great episode! The only thing I would have added to this episode is the fact that some stick shifts have the reverse shift near 1st gear and others have it near the last gear on the far right. I believe German cars have reverse near first gear? Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks for another fantastic episode Bro! 😎🔥🔥🔥
@Clary Carson Yes, that's true - many of the German cars do have the reverse (to the left or before 1st gear) but ᗩᒪᔕO, now that there are more and more cars that are 6-speeds (rather than 5, 𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 4 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑒𝑑 𝑙𝑜𝑙) these also have had to change the position of their "original" Reverse gear.
Ross don’t forget when you start the car, beside the foot on the clutch the right foot has to be on the break. In Europe you fail the exam if you don’t do that 👍
I'm 44 and I've OᑎᒪY owned manual transmission vehicles . I have no desire to drive or have an automatic , regardless of what kind of car it is . Anytime I've decided to purchase another car , the very first info I find out is the type of transmission it has - If it's an automatic , it's an automatic pass for me ! Lol.
@@TireKickers-RossCameron Oh, and I had meant to mention that you've got one 𝘴ꪊρꫀ𝘳 𝘴᭙ꫀꫀ𝓽 VW Bus!!! Is that a 23 window?? I love it! Always been a fan of those ! I'm a fan of Volkswagen, in general , but the VW bus holds a special place in my hippie heart! ✌🏽
Manual is basically a thing of the past now. Your intro is too old school, maybe it's time for something more modern. Back in the day, I learned to drive stick in 10 minutes. Not sure if anyone should learn to drive manual by themselves with CZcams.
This man has a gift for teaching. Thanks Ross. The cops can eat my dust now
Haha
I will start driving soon and I might try stick thanks to this video haha
give it a shot!
Those camera angles are so helpful! And that VW Bus is all you.
yay!! Thank you Celena :D

i miss driving my old 55 oval ...no longer have it but its fresh in the mind banks... thanks for posting
wish I had teachers like you in the school back in the day !
Thank you for the complement!

@@TireKickers-RossCameron I really do wanna learn, just gotta find someone willing to risk their transmission for my sake
Been driving stick for 12 years but still clicked :)
yes!
Hey Ross, your not only teaching me how to trade but also to drive manually
Yes!!

thank you! yes I've been enjoying it. Jetta's are nice, I like the clutch on them.

Hermann goerings Mercedes “the blue goose” would be a cool piece
Couldnt be listed on eBay because it was “offensive”
i hadn't heard about that
I HAVE MY DRIVING TEST TOMORROW!! WISH ME LUCK... And yes, I know how to drive a manual. Just watched this video for fun (;
you can do this!
Idea for part 2: "How to drive a stick shift in Italy", featuring Roberto B. ;-)
Yes!!
Haha funny to watch bcs although now I'm driving an automatic, here in Portugal you learn to drive manual from the start and automatic gear cars are kinda rare.
that's very typical outside the US

definitely I hear you for sure, stop and go traffic isnt' fun in a manual
@@TireKickers-RossCameron Yes, thanks Ross.
The first manual car I drove was a c7 zo6. Drove it during rush hour. Stalled it at every light almost on my way home. Had the roof off. Everyone was staring and taking videos.
lol oh man
Thanks so much! Any tips on a 64 stingray? Just bought one, very rusty & don't want to mess up my clutch.
I was going to mention the easiest car to learn stick in is an older VW Beetle.
The bus is great too for visuals.
for sure!!!

Hey Ross. Nice video. Now lets reenact the Steve McQueen Bullitt chase scene.
oh yes!!
this video helped my girlfriend learn how to drive stick lol
haha nice!! that's awesome dude!
I have drived stick since i was 12
right on man
Ross don’t forget when you start the car, beside the foot on the clutch the right foot has to be on the break. In Europe you fail the exam if you don’t do that 👍
yes correcft!
ross making sure we can run from the feds hahahaha
lol
Nice pfp
I drive semi truck 13 gears manual 😁
that's awesome dude!
Just like trading, the only way to learn how to drive stick is to practice. Doesn't matter if you have a guide, you need practice.
that's true!

does the Volkswagen bus use the same engine as the beetle
I believe it does
@@TireKickers-RossCameron is it true that you would never buy an automatic transmission car
Europeans be like:
Why would anyone even explain this ????
From the UK here - I was thinking exactly the same thing 😂😂
haha I hear you!
What happens if you skip a gear? (like going from 1 to 3 immediately)
nothing really, you can skip gears, you'll just be slightly under powered if you're going too slow in 3rd.
🤗🤗🤗🤗🎆🎆🎆
yes!
:)
You are not only people to be good trader.... nono... you, Mr. Cameron, now show the lazy people out their to really DRIVE!
