Disappearing standard transmissions!

With the lockouts on the newer automatics, they're not an easy mark for theft.

I learned on a manual. If I get a sports car at some point, it'll likely have a manual. Otherwise, I'm just getting around and an auto is easy.

My prediction on self-driving cars: Manufacturers will take on liabilities currently owned by the driver/owner. Some horrendous accidents and huge lawsuits will remove them as an option.
