Manual transmission is also a great anti-theft device, since most kids don’t know how to drive it.
Funny, when I was in the military all the Gen X’ers couldn’t drive stick when we got rentals in Europe. I could because I rode a motorcycle, so I just always drove.
My own purely anecdotal observation is that there are still far more of us Xers who know how to drive a manual transmission. One good thing about it, for my wife and I at least, is that our gen Z kids never asked to borrow our cars and just bought their own automatics or borrowed from their grandparents.
My wife’s car has an especially fiendish hydraulic clutch that will stall out if you even look at it funny, so that helped too.
