I know it's there, but I just can't force myself to let go till the motor is running... Gonna take practice and patience...

The whole "press clutch down to start the engine" thing got me very confused at first, I thought the car was dead, even went back in the dealership to tell them there was something wrong with the car... oops!

Yeah, if I ever happen to need to drive my dad's Jeep Grande Cherokee or my mom Grand Voyager any where, it actually annoys me that they dont have this feature now, im so used to it.

you never had a car that you had to fully depress the clutch for it to start? Ever manual trans I have ever owned did that, I for get what it is called, but it is basicly like a Neutral safty switch off an auto

Nope... I can't say I've driven a lot of cars, but between 3 of my parents' previous cars (Nissan, Mazda, Honda, they're not picky), various local pickup trucks, and cars we had rented when on holidays back in France, none had that function! I was taught, and got used to, shaking the gearshift side to side to ensure it was in neutral before turning the ignition...

Weird eh?
