Drove her into the loop today for the first time. Don't have a second car yet, and the wife needed hers for work. Since this is my first manual I thought it'd be a pain in the stop n go traffic on I290 but it wasn't bad at all! Obviously if I had to make that drive everyday, I'd prefer an auto, but for these one off situations it was a breeze! Keep proper spacing was key. I just coasted in 2nd for the most part.
