RE: Do you drive a manual or automatic
i am mastering my stick everyday... and with lots of people around me watching me do so... and when i'm done, i have a very satisfied feeling come over me, and all the problems just go away... then i hit 5th gear... ohhhh.....
i don't know what people do when driving autos... appart from scratching themselves...

do you mean hill starts, or just generally driving up a hill...
cause hill starts are SUPPOSED to be done likea this... 1 put the foot on the break. 2 put the car in neutral (assuming you know how to manipulate clutch). 3 engage hand break (parking break to others, or E-Break). 4 put the car in gear with either of the two breaks still applied (preferably hand/park/E-break as you'll need it later). 5 bring your rpms up, and slowly let out the clutch. 6 once you can feel that the clutch has taken (nose dips, or jumps up depends how much gas your applying for the steepliness of the hill) release all breaks and off ya go.
round about way of doing it... i could look it up in my driver's manual, but i'm lazy. but most people just let the car roll back a little before the clutch bites, there is a slight chance you'll hit the person behind you (as they'll assume you arn't driving stick) but its their fault for stopping too close to you [8D]
but driving up a hill, is done just like in an auto... you go up, yer foot goes down a lil... if the hill is steep enough, or if you just wanna go up the hill fast, you downshift and zoom up the hill.

not true, my teg has a place u can put anything that resembles the key and it will release the car from but yes both have steering lock but if you can catch it before it locks u can defeat it with anything flat and resonably solid (like a fridge magnet) thats why i always lock my steering on top of have alarms
