You must not have to drive in traffic. Stick shifts are a nightmare in
traffic.

Thanks Chris,

 

Yes its hard to find rental companies rent out stick. I nearly called
every other popular company and none of them keep stick shifts.

 

I just wanted to get re-accustomed to driving a stick as I was planning
to buy one the next time I have to buy a car. The one I have now is
pretty good and I won't need one for a while but I don't quite enjoy
driving automatics as much as I used to enjoy driving stick.

 

Anyway thanks for the info.

 

Joe

        Joe,

         

        My experience is that most if not all normal car rentals are in
the form of automatics as there are few people who know how to properly
drive a stick.  What I would suggest is to go to a dealer, preferably
one of the bigger ones, who rent cars too and see if they have any.  But
beware, you will probably only find high end cars, similar to that grey
one you have, and its gonna be expensive.

         

        C

        I know this isn't the forum to discuss this so I apologize for
any inconvenience caused by this post.

         

        I was trying to google for any auto rental companies around in
the USA more specifically around New Jersey, that may rent out a
standard / stick shift transmission car - without much luck. If anyone
on the list from around the East Coast who may have rented such a car,
could you please let me know where?

         

        Joe
