OMG... I am laughing on one hand, but on the other, I am thinking what a crummy thing to do!!!
C'Mon Rick, you outta know better than to think just because its a stick she wont drive it. Please tell me this was a joke...
I dont know a girl who cant drive a stick. Like Mark's wife, I cant stand autos. heck, when I got my 99, I had to wrestle the keys from hubby! I am going to have to paint this thing purple, just to keep it from hubby. I tried putting girlie things on it, like a fairy sticker in the window, a sticker about being a lesbian in the window... and he STILL drives the thing. He swears if I paint it purple, he wont touch it... and now that he has his big ole truck, I am pretty sure he will leave my 05 alone... I hope!

My girlfriend can't drive a stick and that's one of the reaons I ordered one,
it's no where near the top of the list but I have to say it's there.
My girlfriend has expressed the desire to learn though ..... on my 05!

Maybe its because we both grew up in the country, but neither my wife nor I had ever driven an automatic until driver training in high-school, and neither of us has owned one since. Come to think of it, I don't think she has as much as even driven an automatic since then (that was about 15 years ago).
In my case, if I bought an auto, she would probally have to remember how to drive that instead

I ordered my 05 GT with a manual. My wife insisted on me getting my Mustang with a manual, even though she doesn't know how to drive a stick. She knows how much I enjoyed driving the manuals I owned before, and told me to order my new car the way I wanted it. So I did. Besides, I never have to adjust the mirrors and seats.

One of the reasons I liked my wife was that she knew how to drive a manual! Besides, the reason I like manuals aren't to prevent anyone from driving it.

I didn't mean to insinuate that girls don't know how to drive stick....but ALOT of them don't.
My friends wife doesn't know how, and she is a horrible driver. He got a stick. :-)
