I opened the paper up this morning to find this local gem of an article. This kid is only 18, im curious what he thinks is an old fashioned way of jumpstarting.... !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

What do they mean by that? Push start?

Possibly considering the car crashed into the store. I dont consider a roll start to be old fashioned though. Unless he left it in gear when they jumped it?

That's what I am thinking.

Push-start, get about 5-10mph, let the clutch out (2nd gear works best) and VROOM! Engine comes back to life. Looks like the dummy was pointed towards the building.

The only "old fashioned" start I can think of is if someone jammed a bar through his radiator into the crank and tried to start it by hand... because that looks fun.

Disconnect neutral safety switch and start it in gear for old school flava.

Yeah and then panicked and forgot to hit the clutch immediately afterwards.

We're implying that any 18 year old kid who drives a manual jeep is dumb enough to do that.
I have some hope for humanity still.

Lol, me an my buddy who had a miata had to do this at a car meet. His alternator was dying and so i had to push him across the parking lot, while a crowd jokingly was making fun of us. Luckily we got it first try and didnt have to suffer embarrassment from all those people.
This guy, idk wtf he did. And why he would go towards a building...

I would imagine either he and his girlfriend both pushed the Jeep, then he tried to catch up to it, jump in and start it, or he pushed while his friend tried to start it.

If they did #1, i hope they taped it because that would be quite the video.
