I've gotten a couple just this year.

Well, that's just cool.

Now that I think of manual stuff, I guessing it's going to be almost impossible to avoid power steering with my next car. I really liked going from power steering to manual steering, but I don't think there have been many cars made recently that don't have power steering.

Speaking of things you never see any more, just recently I saw a MILKMAN delivering milk. In glass bottles. wow

Plenty of cheap rental cars are also manual. Much cheaper to fix if something breaks. Also, manual windows are sometimes considered safer because you can roll them up faster than power windows.

Including manual transmission? That seems peculiar. When I worked in the car lot at the airport, I don't think any of the agencies had manual transmissions available. Maybe one, as a speciality item, but that was about it.

In our car renting history, we've only once found a manual transmission.

No, I meant manual windows and locks. Thank goodness, since I don't know how to drive stick.

In DC? Really? Must have been some sort of CSA thing.

I was just thinking how convenient that would be. I do buy cream in glass bottles, but I haven't found a way to get it delivered.

I love milk in glass bottles. I also miss my egg boy.
