Just wondering while I was reading the thread on clutchless shifting... where can I rent a stick from? All the car rental places around here do ONLY autos, I've checked all of chicagoland's major companies. Any help is appreciated ( I wish I had a manual Max ) I would love to get better and try some of the stuff I read about with a stick shift.

 

you must have at least ONE friend who drives a stick??

 

in my area.. they have rent a wreck

 

hehe...go to the local honda dealership...

"Can I test drive one of your Civic Sis? ...yea, sure, I know how to drive a stick..."

 

rent one

 

I've always taught people on rentals.

 

Rent an exotic. I'm sure some of them come in stick.

 

my friend rented a old uhaul truck for a day and learned how to drive stick.He needed it for a ups driver job

 

If he practices on a friend's car, he may not be a friend for long . . .

 

just buy some beater

 

You guys can rent sticks (that aren't expensive exotics)?

Crap, car dealerships don't even sell manuals here, much less places that rent them Then again I haven't checked much myself being under 25...

On move-out day of last year we went in search of a manual U-haul just for the hell of it. Found out all the u-hauls in the city are autos. Not like I like in a one-stoplight town either...city has about 650,000 people...

 

exactly :-)

but actually... nobody around rents stick at all. What's rent-a-wreck?

 

If you are serious about buying one, the dealer will teach you.

 

Hahahaha! Thats exactly what I would do! This is the correct anwser!
