And we, like you, have language conventions that shorten dictation with implied meaning. It is a manually-operated, multi-gear transmission operated vehicle. We say "stick shift". Get over it, you fricking worthless goddamn irritation.
serious answer:
the stick lets you select the gears in the transmission are are geared or more or less be used in order, for example:
Important note: only switch gears with clutch pedal pressed and release once your gear is selected, first gear may require a tiny bit of gas petal use to maintain rpm.
first gear is mostly used to get the car moving without stalling the engine, reverse is usually about the same but opposite direction, it isn't a fast gear and the engine will rev high if you try.
second gear is the first real gear for town driving, about 10-20mph range depending on the car
third gear is used for faster town driving or very slow highway driving about 25-35mph
4th gear is medium highway speed somewhere around 45mph
5th gear is usually the highest gear if the car is not equipped with an overdrive 55mph+
6th gear if equipped will either be a high speed gear or an overdrive gear depending on the car
this is not a hard and fast rule as 3 and 4 speed manuals are common in older vehicles and semi trucks will have over a dozen gears.
as for parking you typically either put the car in 1sts or reverse and pull your hand brake, that way if your hand brake fails the car should stay in place.
the advantage of this is you can select gears as needed once you know how your car will behave, for example skipping gears entirely, staring in 2nd, skipping gears like 2>4>6, dropping out of overdrive to pass, ect.
take what i said with a grain of salt, i only started driving a manual a couple of years ago so i may have things wrong or may be being mean to the manual crapbox i bought specifically to learn on.
i'm a complete idiot and haven't managed to do that yet and i've had the car for a few years now. i bought a $1,500 shitbox specifically because i figured i would do something like that.
>How do you put the car in park?
if you're parking with the engine on - put in neutral and release clutch, handbrake
if parking with engine off - put in first, handbrake

You're a clown. You call me obsessed yet all this thread devolved into is shitter-shattered, assblasted, totally anally-devastated conquered vassals trying to curate the language of their conquerors. Piss off, no more replies from me, kill this thread. The turkmenoceltohuns have become uppity.
>someone mentions America >it must be the Europeans!
Yeah, you're obsessed. I don't know who he was but he could've been Asian or Australian or South American or god forbid British but you're obsessed with Europe for some reason
>never gonna kansei dorifto

>3 pedals
>2 feet
Dumb yuropoors
>NA fatties think you push down the accelerate and brake pedals at the same time with the same feet
my sides
Why would you install 3 pedals in a vehicle when humans only got 2 feet? Genuine question.
Why would your car come with 5 gears when you can only use one at a time? Genuine question.
You aren't supposed to use your left foot on the break pedal neet
>zoomer doesn't know about heel toe shifting
lol
...do you not understand how to properly rev match?
My legs are too long to heel toe so I don't brake when I downshift
Dude how small is your dick?
>stick
Why do americans talk like toddlers?
Stupid frick, don't even pretend you don't have similarly-abbreviated phrases with implied meanings in your own language. KYS
Yes, my language also has words that toddlers use to poorly describe things that actually have a proper name.

>mindbroken 3rd worlder obsessed with Americans
never change Ganker, you'll never be as important as the average American
american moment
What does the stick even do? Pump more gas into the engine to accelerate? How do you put the car in park?
I bet you love to pump the stick
it's designed to filter burgerbrains
I thought that was a stupid question but then I remembered Americans don't ride bikes

>Mess up this process a couple times
>Transmission gone

Millions of people are driving manuals every day for years without accidentally destroying their transmissions. Even women.
>mess up this
I didn't realise it was possible to be so inept
>How do you put the car in park?
if you're parking with the engine on - put in neutral and release clutch, handbrake
if parking with engine off - put in first, handbrake
>What does the stick even do?
Stops dumb Black folk from stealing my car
Have you ever ridden a fricking bike
Biden’s Amerikkka
Why would anyone even play racing games if they’re not playing:
>1. Rally
>2. RWD
>3. Manual
>4. With a clutch pedal and H-shifter
>RWD
>Rally
are you a masochist?
Group B is peak rally
Dumb euros making things more complicated than they have to be
>american's call it "gas"
>its a liqiuid
It doesnt freeze in cold so not a liquid actually
What the hell are you talking about? Different liquids have different freezing temperatures
>It doesnt freeze in cold
everything freezes in a sufficient level of cold you mongoloid

Daily reminder euros are too poor to afford AC.
your mobility scooter comes with auto troony too?
Driving in video games would be way better if Americans weren't incapable of driving.
Euros have to pay like 200 bucks to fill up theyre little homosexual fiat lmao
What's wrong? I thought Americans were rich.
$200 is nothing
You're correct.
I failed my license 5 times
Can someone ITT recommend an entry-level racing wheel, I don't know anything about them but I think my kids would like one
using manual is mandatory if you race online, not having complete control of your shift timings sucks dick
>Yuropoor morons be like: Oh no, oh nononono, WATCH OUT BEHIND PEOPLE!!!
What?
???
Are you okay Billy?
You mean they are cars instead of big toys?
>Built in antipiracy amiright boomers?
That's funny I feel the exact opposite. If the game doesn't have manual clutch and shifting I won't play it
video games?
