Well, he CAN drive a stick shift. He actually had to move my Subaru..once. So, I know he's capable of it. It's just that he doesn't want to drive a stick.

Now, I taught my son how to drive on a standard transmission and every car and/or truck he's had has been a standard transmission.

I'm of the opinion that everyone should at least know how to drive a stick shift, whether or not they want to or not.
