Ok, let me see if I've got this straight. In order to want a manual, I've got to be crazy. And I must be crazy to keep driving my old manual. But if I ask to drive a new manual, that means I'm not crazy anymore, and I have to keep driving my old manual.

This is why we can't have new Manual-transmission cars.

I'm going to need a Venn diagram or something to figure this one out...

People would probably still think you're crazy if you asked to drive a new car with a manual. You're crazy either way.

Anyone accusing you of being crazy for wanting a manual can stick it up their jumper. The way to cut this Gordian knot is to contend the premises are faulty.

I have to agree with Sn210. You are crazy. Your choice of tranny has nothing to to with it.

Well, I've established that a long time ago. But put my mental well-being aside, lol.

Yeah, and that's exactly the definition of a catch-22.

I listen to Keasbey Nights a lot... Does that count?
No I know what a catch-22 is, and I get what you're saying. You can't win, either way.
