An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

It’s incredible how certain people are conditioned to think the sound of a gas motor and shifting because your puny motor is out of optimal torque and rpm range are manly.
“Good” = “manly” to you? Wow. Sexist.
Never said anything about it being manly, but it can sound good.
Vroom vroom is fun.
Shifting is fun.
Fun is good.
I’m a car guy and far from manly. I drive a loud annoying stick shift because it’s fun and life is too short to be bored while driving.
Life is too short to have to fucking drive everywhere.
Yeh, but unless I uproot my life and move to a different country, I’m stuck doing it, so I can either bitch and moan about how much I hate it, or have the best time I can doing it 🤷🏾♂️
For sure, I used to drive stick when I drove, but I also argued for town planning that would make driving optional. Personal choices to deal with the reality you’re given, public policy activism for the reality you want.
Yeah, I guess all those professional female race car drivers are doing it to feel “manly”
There you go pointlessly gendering again!
