I don't get it, do people think Americans don't have stick shift cars? Two of my cars have been manual

And does this imply that other countries don’t use automatic cars?

People think that all Americans are stupid and don’t understand the existence of manual cars

I try to only buy manuals because A) they're cheaper B) nobody knows how to drive them so they get stolen less and C) better gas mileage.

Modern automatic transmission tech has render them equal in fuel mileage. But you could replace your c) with 'they are bad ass'

Heh, I'm not sure my Ford Focus is all that bad ass, but I will replace it with "drives much better in the snow."

Just admit you like manual over automatic for the same reason I prefer the 1911 to the M9.
It's oldschool, comfortable, and feels cool.
