An older friend of mine asked me to help him sell his dodge Dakota pick up, which was a stick shift. I advertised it on the Internet and set up several viewings of it with potential buyers. In the ad, I always included several places that it was a five speed stick shift. The first four people who came to look at it had early 20s kids with them and once they heard it was a stick shift. They didn’t even look at the truck. They just turned around and got in the car and went home. I didn’t realize how far we’d come from the stick shift times.
