    I do the opposite. So used to driving an auto for the last 8 years that I usually forget the clutch at the first stop light when I have to drive our daycab. Takes me a second to figure out why it's bucking so much when I stop.

    Still cheaper than TA though, and food not near as good. But yes the price has changed a lot….
