adapting back to auto...

after driving a stick shift, have you ever got into an auto and instinctly stepped on the brakes with your left foot while thinking about the clutch??

[chrischhorn]

yes sir i did that many times.......which is why i sold my other 2 cars that were autos and bought 2 more cars that were 5 speeds so i wont ever have that issue again lol

yes...also after getting out from the ranger and getting into the cb7 i always try and hit the 4th pedal which is the e-brake on the ranger

My thing, going from auto to manual would be setting the brake.

I dont do it in my auto, so im sure id forget in a manual. Of course id probably learn the hard way.

My 5speed is a little, extremely stiff car and my auto is a larger, comfy car. Here in Montreal the roads are so terrible, when I get back in the auto, my lower back gets a rest. I have occasionally rammed the brake pedal as if it were a clutch pedal lol that left foot hits with a lot of force, its really funny locking up the brakes like that

I have two 92 accords an lx 5 speed and a dx auto. every time I get in that automatic and hit a stop light im always looking for the clutch to downshift.
