All jokes aside I was wondering what the best way was to go about doing this?
I learned at a really early age on things like Go Karts and Tractors and my first few vehicles were all standards.
However my girlfriend has never driven one and we decided to buy a new(er) Nissan Altima 5-Speed. We bought this car specifically for her.
Where I grew up there was very little traffic (small town) so it was pretty much learn as you go.
While the town I currently live in isn't large there is a lot of summer tourist traffic. I figured the best thing to do at first would be to start in a shopping plaza parking lot either early in the morning or late at night and learn from there.
The hardest part for me when I was younger was getting into first and moving without either stalling or riding the clutch. Once she has that down I guess I'd just let her learn by driving during off peak driving hours (again early morning or late at night).
I was wondering if any of you had any tips or cared to share about how you learned and what you thought worked the best.
Thanks
