    Yeah well it’s hard when you hear all your life if you mess up once you blow the transmission,.which is a several grand repair, nobody with a manual will ever let you practice on their car and well hey automatics are everywhere and don’t have that headache.

      They may have exaggerated the risk of a money shift a tiny bit. Stalling is easy, but blowing the car up has to be hard.

      Nah, you just can’t without being a complete psychopath I guess force in a too wrong gear, the sync won’t be able to spin so fast that you can actually put in a ridiculous gear.

      And reverse is usually not synced so even harder.
