Give it more gas

Today I'm thankful for ...

... B not destroying my car's transmission. He learned how to drive my stickshift MINI today. We did a full hour's worth of lessons in the morning where I taught him about my "coasting" technique. He picked up the shifting thing really quickly and even got to do some extended highway/city driving. He only stalled out a few times, too.

Before he got in my car he had told me that he would never really consider driving a manual. I'm hoping this will change his mind!
