You ever hand cranked a Model T? I did.

Or ride a motorcycle that had the throttle on the right twist grip, and spark advance on the left twist grip? How about the rear brake on the left and shifter on the right? Shifted gears by hand? To start the bike. You had to push a button on the carb until it left a puddle of fuel under the bike.

Drive a Jeep MB3 that had 4 sticks in it. One was for the 3 speed tranny. Next was to engage the transfer case. Next was Hi and Lo range. Last was for the overdrive.

Drive muscle cars that rolled over and played dead in the corners.

Double clutching a stick because the tranny had no synchros.

You young guys don't know on what you missed.
