We have a joke here in my country>How do you know an American drives a manual car?>He tells you within 5 second of meeting him
>>29095328We don't have any jokes about your country in America.We don't think about you at all.
redpill me on american manual drivers - why do they throw it into neutral the moment they stop accelerating and why do they constantly wiggle the stick to make sure it's still in neutral?
>>29095345wiggle checking and double clutching are things (You) should do too anon.
>>29095348Why the fuck would I wiggle my gearstick to make sure it hasn't magically changed its position from where I last put it?Only mutts do it after you spend your whole lives driving automatics and learn manual for the first time
>>29095353They need to be sure it hasn't slipped out of gear, as Americans are just rough on their belongings.
>>29095328Tesla is the most American brand and has no manual or automatic shifting.
>>29095348>double clutchingLolLmaoMaybe learn clutch-less before you talk big
>>29095328Tell me your country and I'll tell you the joke
Interesting how people shit on the USA but never reveal where they're from.
>>29095339Except every day.
>>29095328demon
>>29095328I drive a manual car
>>29095423Doesn't really matter, does it? Nobody likes the US.
>>29095431Sorry even a 2.5L CVT shitbox would be considered a luxury good in your hovel.
>>29095435as someone who lived extensively in europe and before that latam and se asia a 2.5 cvt shitbox like your average american's car is a nice car for 80% of normies and would be something like a mazda cx5 or a toyota rav4
>>29095425You think your country is the EU? Sad
>>29095444See, triggered immediately.
>>29095423I'll give you a hint: seppos can't drive manual
>>29095345You know, that's to double clutch and heel-toe downshift. Useful on the tougue >>29095366Fascinating>>29095378>>29095423California
>>29095481No they don't double clutch (why would you on a full synchro tranny anyway)No the don't heel toe downshift They do a pull through some gears and then immediately throw the car in neutral to coast - very strangeThen they incessantly wiggle the shifter in neutral any time they're coasting or stopped
American car driving POV videos when it's a manual>Title is "Driving the NEW 2026 Nissan Versa MANUAL 5 SPEED" >Ten shots of the 3 pedals at the bottom>Makes 50 references to how its le fun and engaging >Neutral as soon as he stops accelerating, always coasts to a stop>Talks about "heel toe downshifting" but can't even do it properly >"Neutral wiggles"
>but what about the americans?
>>29095489>why would you on a full synchro tranny anywayA real seond hand drivers car is clapped out
>>29095328We have a joke here in my countryits your country.
>>29095490link a single example
>>29095742Sorry I don't know about that experience because my clapped out second hand gearboxes were all manufactured by Toyota
>>29095328>be ford>makes engine>302 ci>its not 5 liters>say it's 5 liters>everyone tells you it's not 5 liters>50 years later>make a new completely different engine>for no reason at all make it 302 ci>it's not 5 liters>say it's 5 liters>everyone tells you it's not 5 liters
>>29095977for me it's the fact they specically called it the>5.0 LIKE NIGGA YOU ADDED THE DECIMAL POINT ANYWAYYOU DON'T GET TO PRETEND YOU WERE ROUNDING IT OFF
>>29095977Ford already had a 4.9L. The 5.0 moniker was to avoid confusion.Also....>2001-2004 GSXR1000 is actually 988cc.>1985 CR125R is 123cc.Those are just examples. Displacement varies over the years. Almost all motorcycles are lower. A "750" might actually be a 746cc. A "500" might actually be 498cc.The important part is that in racing you cant have MORE than a specific displacement in a class. Having it slightly under insures you dont get DQ'd in post race tech inspection when they clay your heads and you hit 1000.1cc because you swapped in some dished valves to lighten up the valvetrain.
>>29095977>uhoh....
>>29096252At least the coyote is 4951cc which rounds up to 5.0L. Mercedes is far more egregious calling a 6208cc engine a 6.3L just because they had an actual 6.3L back in the day.
>>29095328I've never heard of anyone tell me their car is manual anon.
>>29096503>But they're short 49ccs!Jokes on the critics, Americans didn't even know what a CC even is it how big 49 of them are. It is a little odd the 5.2L aluminator isn't more common.
>>29096503Engines always round up, never down.
>>29096683If that were true GM wouldn't have listed the 350 as a 5.7L for 3 decades.
>>29096683no
>>29096683My 1047 is referred to commonly as a "1000".
>>29095977Gen 3 and gen 4 coyotes are real 5.0 at least
